    The excuses are beyond being old. Add in the insulting quote about football, and you have a coach that is either blinded by his own propaganda inside the basketball offices or straight up lacks self awareness. It’s probably both if you ask me.
    Lack of Marlin to get ONE guy on the court to be the Alpha male the others look to. That's what I have noticed the last few years. Jay Wright was the last guy others knew was the Alpha. Don't have to be the best to be Alpha, just be a solid leader. As Jay got dinged up down the stretch in '18, things fell apart. And now here we are, 2021, and Marlin throws another UL team under his bus.

    Good point.
    Cedric is not a vocal leader. Quiet leader at best. Wilson is only a sophomore. Trajan and Julien are injured. The others are in 1st or 2nd year in the program. Haven't seen the passion of a Jay Wright since, well...Jay Wright.

    The fact that he doesn't make adjustments is frustrating. We don't defend the 3 pointer when they are hitting those shots.

    Today was the freshman Harper. He exploded with 3’s. He’s always doing other stuff well. Sometimes he gets fouls for aggressive defense.

    Harper and Richards are both guys who have the personality to be team leaders down the road. Hard to do that as a freshman. Cedric is not a natural leader in my view but as the only 4 year senior it is incumbent upon him to take that role.

    Every team goes to the conference tourney in Pensacola. 1st and 2nd place teams in each division get a first round bye. Right now, Texas State is first while the Cajuns and Ark State are tied for second. Red Wolves have the tie breaker now due to percentage points. We need to win out and have Ark. State lose one to garner 2nd. Overall the team is 14 and 7 with a conference record of 8 and 6. Four regular season conference games remain. Starting point guard Brayan Au hurt his knee at Ark. State last Friday and today was first game we win since he has been out. Loss to ULM on Thursday was terribly disappointing as they do not have a good record. Nice bounce back today. Brayan is not a great player by any means but one who gets Cajuns in right sets. Doubt he returns this year. Past two games back up guard Devin Butts was suspended and did not play. No idea why he was suspended. I suspect he returns next game. Hopefully he does not take minutes from Ty Harper who played great today. I think that answers most of your questions have been answered here Boomer.

    I heard that Julien has been practicing. Do you think we will see him this year?
