We didn’t win many Div I games with that lineup.

Well, this is Marlin's put up or shut up year. No more chances so he better find a way to get some wins. I'm certain he'll find a way to get a 3rd place finish in league and 20 wins which his fanclub will claim should be enough to keep him around.

With the virus I think it buys him another year. I don't think they can justify paying his buyout if he has another mediocre year

Our ridiculous response to the Wuhan leaves nothing normal. For all we know Dr. Maggard might treat this as a non year even though Big Fish actually completed the championship and tournament championship by a quick exit.

Wait what?

[CrazyCajun]

Wait what?

Our athletic department will Soon be broke, like the majority of America

[BraveCajun]

Wait what?

Haha, wish Hudsheen was my boss with that kind of performance philosophy! You’re so terrible at your job that firing you is out of the question...

[Hudsheen#Fired]

Wait what?

My thinking is that if this coronavirus stuff continues on and fans aren't allowed to attend college football games, then we lose out on revenue.

I'm ready for a change, i just have hard time believing that it will happen after next year unfortunately

Affording the buyout was questionable before and now looking at a year of refunds for baseball/softball and oil closed at negative $37 a barrel today. It will be tough to pull the trigger on a mediocre season for financial reasons.

Au is Hardy's replacement in my view. PJ was starting at the end of the year and I expect Au to challenge for a starting role.

Channel 3 reported tonight that Butts will be eligible to play this fall, missing most of his games this past season due to injury.

The amount of the buyout continues to reduce and should be manageable after the completion of next season. Granted there isn’t a clause within his contract that reverses or amends the sliding buyout scale because the season didn’t technically play out.

If the reduction of his buyout reduces accordingly then it comes down to the athletic department’s calculation of diminishing or increasing returns.

Yes, overall the athletic department’s revenue will take a hit. However the financial decision will be based on projected revenue / savings based on Marlin’s retention vs the buyout and anticipated increase of revenue derived from hiring a new coach.

Take a hit? I still don’t think people fully comprehend what kinda “hit” this area is about to take. We will be “hit” for years...we hadn’t really recovered from the oil and gas hit in 2014 and now we have the virus and an oil hit that makes look 2014 look like peanuts. Our athletic department is about to struggle mightily for years. We were struggling to be financially relevant before this.

Sadly Lafayette could become a quazi ghost town much like Detroit and other rust belt cities. Really without oil what is the dark matter gravity holding Lafayette galaxy together.
