Sorry can't fire Marlin

And yet many have stated he said 4th.

Maybe that’s a temporary goal, but come on a decade into Big Fish and we’ve achieved 3rd or better how many times. Let’s not forget the enviable average of 7th in tournament placement wins. It’s time to cut the cord.

That may mean a fourth place or lower finish in 2021 will result in a change, perhaps that is likely. I know that won't be a high enough standard for some but Dr. Maggard is the one who makes the decision. He is obviously not using the listed criteria this year due to the extenuating circumstances. Not sure if he will use it for women's basketball this year but I bet he gives Coach Brodhead one more year. He may have to meet those same standards next year as well. Baseball will not and should not have that requirement this year due to the new start.

Is Broadhead the highest paid women’s basketball coach in the Sunbelt conference?

Fairly certain I heard him on radio mention top 4. If someone heard differently, please acknowledge it now. Either way its a very broad statement.

Top 3 or 4, doesn't really matter. I now realize how little Maggard cares about basketball. It's just not close to the top of his priorities. And I get it, football needs to be the focal point.

4th,3rd,2nd aren't dominating the league unless you also place 1st often and take home a tournament crown pretty consistently. Now every coach taking over a down program deserves four years unless he pulls a Baldwin. Both Marlin and Brodhead have been at this twice that long. Maybe Brodhead hasn't reached eight seasons.

Maybe so but if you're willing to pay that type of money to a coach, you would think that the focus is excellence and building a program.

If we want to move to a conference like the AAC we need 2 things to happen that is completely under our own control. One is a complete Cajun Field renovation and Basketball to win big. Marlin Wong win big ever.

I agree but looks like our AD cares about the latter as of right now.

I do believe without success next season a change is likely. That may be the case even if there are a few injuries. No, I do not have any idea how Dr. Maggard will define success. For now, all indications are Coach Marlin will return next season. That is simply a fact.

Mike...

Which players does it appear will qualify for redshirts based on medical and/or playing time?

[cajun4life]

Marlin Wong lol

Dude he is garbage.

Well Cajun Field has to be the priority, but basketball can be a money-making sport. Just have to make the NCAA tourney at least 3 times every 5 years.
