FB Final: Louisiana 20, South Alabama 18

[Scott Malkinson]

I wondered while watching the game last night why South was finding, and hitting receivers down the field whereas we kept throwing the passes to the flat or 5-6 yards down the field. Camera angles typically don’t show receivers farther down field; so hard to know if we have guys open. I just think we are ultra conservative in the pass game. I believe in taking care of the ball!! But there has to be some balance with taking some more shots over the top. Others have mentioned our route patters, etc. I don’t see enough of that to comment intelligently. We have momentary flashes of a passing game then poof! It’s gone.

Someone on the radio said he is too short to see the middle of the field. That was a comment by an official university person

If they're on UL game radio, they are not university employees job the University...those guys, work for Lierfield IMG

It is obvious that the official university person (THE COACH) which counts says otherwise.

[Turbine]

A current coach on the staff has said Fields is the best option we have.

A "current coach" on the staff should be sharing his opinion with the head coach, and keep his trap shut elsewhere by not spreading dissent publicly.

Especially to this guy. When he gets it, it is surely to be posted on every message board because he has a need to show he is in the know.

Ok...id like to know the thinking behind those play calls...a why ask and answer...with something more that "I have to be a better coach" answer. Would also like to hear how 2 OC's work in a game with Napier. Answer your question?

It does, and I think the 2nd one he might answer, but the first one he won't and should not and here is why?

"Coach, why did you call xyz play?"
"We were facing a four man-front, seven in the box, they were slanting power side, and with a lone Safety up top, blah, blah, blah"

So now the coach is giving away his thinking of play calling for all opponents to hear, on top of what they are already gleaning from 2-3 years of video.

No upside to answering the first question.

[Rainman66]

You and I don't know that. We have some guys who have played and coached in the nfl. Anything is possible.

You are correct, we cannot know ANYTHING. But I am willing to wager on it. It is a simple bet, if Napier leaves, and is replaced by an existing 2021 on field coach, I will pay $10,000. If he is not, I am paid $1,000.

Put your money where your mouth is, JMV. Sign up or shut up.

Wouldn't you like to be in the know. Only trust worthy folks know. I don't post anything that is asked to be held in house and neither do the other folks that are in the know.

I don't gamble and who is to say any of those guys would throw their name in the hat? No guarantees when Napier will leave or if any of the current coaches will be on the coaching roster when he leaves. BTW where did I say the next coach was on the current coaching roster?

[tboy68]

He may be the next Cajun coach.

he didn’t tell you that Fields is the best we have on the roster recently. That was info from last year
