Cedric Russell Portals out to Ohio State

[cajuns80]

I'm trying to say I don't they are coming into it with a mindset of "we don't care what the kid does we just going to use him for a year" which is what the initial post of "filling a spot" seemed to entail. Taking a chance on kids like that from SEC level schools is a necessity for mid majors. It has proven successful here in the past and even under this staff (Stroman and Gant). Many of you long for the Jessie Evans days, that was his bread and butter.

Most of what Marlin has brought in lately from the high school ranks are essentially roster fillers. That is the whole problem with our team.

I hate to see Cedric leave, but i'm also happy that he has an opportunity to play for a better team. I only hope the best happens for him!

Louisiana transfer Cedric Russell has committed to Ohio State, source told

. Averaged 17 points per game last season and will help ease the scoring blow of losing Duane Washington Jr., to the pros.

Russell to the OSU, Wilson to Texas Tech. Sounds to me like our talent shortage has not been in players.

Congratulations and best of luck to both young men.

So over this Bob Marlin Big Fish guy.

I sense a big season for Marlin and our basketball team this coming year. So many of you are going to eat a big pile of crow, and Coach Big Fish will enjoy every second of it.

You need to change your bait, Runner. The fish arent biting the old one any more.

A shiny hook and a big fish? What could go wrong?

[CajunVic]

Maybe the Big Fish will live up to his name sake this year instead of being a shoe pick.
