Men's Basketball

Same sentiments.

Cajun4Life, I know you know a guy, What is his name again?

My support for basketball ended 5 years ago. I saw no progress in the basketball program at that time. Need a change in command.

Take a look and Marlin's staff and read their biographies. Not one of those guys can walk into a Louisiana high school gym without an introduction.

All of those guys have either played for him or worked with him for a very long time. None of the coaches had prior P5 experience.

We need at least one assistant that Marlin respects and he's secure enough can push back on Marlin. Most of all we need a guy on staff who has deep AAU connections and can flat out recruit. Similar to what Rebowe and Leger are to football. Those guys can walk into any high school in Louisiana with little notice or introduction.

Somebody like Brad Boyd would fit this description

If I'm not mistaken Boyd said he wants to be HC of the Cajuns one day. Whether he's ready or not is a different discussion.

[CajunEXPRESS]

He needs to do the required work. Being a great or perceived as great coach doesn’t exclude needed steps.

Completely agree. I went to nearly every home game during my college days, a bunch at Blackham as a kid, and was a season ticket holder for a number of years after graduation.

It’s to a point now that I wasn’t even aware we had a game last night...and wasn’t the least bit upset that I missed it.

Hopefully something changes soon. My entire group of friends, the ones that used to be there with me, are all as apathetic as I am these days.

Close to identical situation. Was about 8 for Lamar’s first season, Freshman for Toney’s Sr yr. attended most games. I only kept up with score last night periodically on ESPN app. Had high hopes for Big Fish initially as I casually followed when I was living in P’cola.

Sentiments have gotten so bad that Mike does not even try to defend him anymore. Let that sink in.

My 1st semester at USL was Lamar's last semester. Loved going to those games & during the Paschal years. Even liked a lot of the Fletcher era. I like Marlin, as l've said before, as a person. I was very hopeful for him, but l just haven't seen it happen. I agree with the majority - we need to move in a new direction pretty soon.

That is bad bad. We may not win 10 games this year.

Imagine your football coach winning more games in a season than your basketball coach

[cajun_ragin97]

It's Time for Marlin To Go. I have no issues with the guy as a person, but as a coach, it's just time.

[cajun_ragin97]

It’s time. I like the guy as a person. But this is the first time I can remember in a few years that we’ve got a losing record. It’s just unacceptable in year 10. Completely unacceptable. I’d give him until the end of the season but if things don’t drastically improve, Maggard will find a winner.
