Thread: MBB Final: Louisiana 73, GSU 84

    Default Re: MBB: Louisiana vs Georgia State

    App state basketball has now been to the same number of SBC finals as us in the past 10 years. Their coach makes less than half of what Marlin makes.

    CM, we are in the same boat. I will be 86 next season. My priorities changed in a big way also. The feeling of a let down after a lost in any of our sports is second nature now.

    It's all about the ROI.

    Anyone with an idea of when the All SBC teams will be announced? Normally its a part of the conference tourney isn't it?

    Au, if he was healthy for this game, would have struggled tremendously with GAST quickness. He may be a PG, but he lacks quickness and doesn't have a great handle either.

I simply attribute that to frustration at losing to an opponent that you did not expect to. No need to continually harp on that as it serves no purpose at this point. Focus now moves to spring recruiting and individual development of who will return.
    Good post. Nothing to argue with here. Let’s run it back next year.

    Geaux Cajuns!

    Priorities are important.

    Not only was it not wise it was just inaccurate. Hopefully we don't lose too many players in the offseason so we can actually build something. I would love to see a pick and roll game with Wilson and Awkuba next year although doubt Marlin would do such a thing.

    Ran one that was a beauty against south al. Turned into a monster jam from Awkuba. Don’t recall seeing it again. It’s mind boggling.

    The data is there to prove that any extension will just cause more delays and getting bounced before the SBC championship game.

    Also, how is that excuse that Big Fish Bob made about the SBC teams in the West division being much better than Eastern Division Teams aging? You know, the statement Marlin made a couple of weeks back when he added a slap in the face to the Cajun football program to his list of weekly excuses. It sure seems like the Cajuns were lucky not to play a Western Division schedule this season.

    Condolences regarding your sibling who passed away.
    Sounds like Marlin needs to learn to shut his mouth unless his team can back it up. How many times has he opened it and looked like a fool when he cannot deliver?

    My GOD, how can we not move on from this idiot?

    He should have been terminated after saying something like that. You insulted a top 15 team who funds 80% of the athletic department.

    Well, if there were any resemblance of fans who might've been on the fence with the program; they definitely jumped off after that statement.

    No excuses for saying something like that.

    When Dimond sports are taking in double the revenue as your basketball programs you have a huge problem

    They should take 80% of his salary and move it over to Napier’s
