Rough Second Quarter Dooms Louisiana in 70-41 Loss To LSU

[VObserver]

Comparison of Brodhead to Mulkey is easy. One is male, one is female; one can't recognize and recruit D1 talent, the other can; one can't coach during games, the other can.

Brodhead seems to think he is still recruiting for Teurlings instead of for a D1 school.

For those who say women's basketball is boring; you can say that only if you have not watched GOOD women's basketball. Of course, if all you have seen is UL hoops, you only have seen the bad, except for the Kelly Hall years.

Looks like you have hit on all of the tangibles . . . Question . . . was half of the game good basketball?

No. LSU was crap last year, and Mulkey is newly arrived. She will change the culture [and player quality] there and have success; perhaps not as much as she had at Baylor, but sweet 16 or better most years.

So we lost by 29 to a crap team?

Well LSU lost AT HOME to Florida Gulf Coast University by 14 last Sunday. Mulkey has her work cut out. The 5,000 season ticket holders won’t hang around long in Refineryville.

Meanwhile in Lafayette, going into the 51st year of WBB. 1 NCAA appearance, one WNIT. And it’s not just a WBB issue. Any sport needs to be embraced by the fan base, especially women’s sports, to have a chance. Has nothing to do with money, have to generate their own mojo, like softball.

Credit to Garry and Mulkey for trying to grow the sport. Unfortunately the bug hit the windshield last night. That was something you can’t unsee.

That was gosh awful. TWO single digit quarters. 26.9% FG. Outrebounded 52-29. 25 TOs.

And water is now $4.75...dang.

FWIW SLU football is up 28-21 at the half on Nicholls. It's on the "+'. Cole Kelly having a good year.

How that work out lol

Agreed.

I like Gary and I like Bob, but if you look at their body of work, is that the standard that we're settling on at Louisiana for basketball? They've had some mild success, but nothing else to really boast about. 2 regular season championships, 1 for each men's and women's. 1 Sun Belt tourney championship in 8 years ago for men's. 1 NCAA tourney appearance in a combined, what, 16-17 years? 1 NIT visit each. 0 wins total.

Overall, at least Gary has some named wins over Arkansas and Ole Miss and a couple of WBI championships. Bob has Iowa on a neutral court and pretty much the against other P5 or top tier teams, it hasn't been close.

The difference is that Mulkey has a track record in recruiting and coaching success [including a natty] at a school with significantly less resources than LSU. Even Refineryvill fans will give her a couple of years to turn around the dumpster fire that was LSU women's hoops.

Garry has had almost a decade to turn around the disaster that Errol Rogers left behind, with less than spectacular results. Props to him for being the Ricky Bustle of women's basketball here, but it is time to find our Billy Napier or Gerry Glasco for our women's hoops.

You been had it out for Garry. The program has turned around. They won the SBC last year, WBI champions twice, winningest coach as well. If u tired of Garry, you must hate hate Bob as well…

Neither one deserves a pass. Both need to dance this year.

Bob, hasn’t crapped the bed against a non D1. Garry did it at least twice. We all know Bob’s shortcomings…they’ve been regurgitated numerous times here. This thread is about the women’s program.

Personally I don’t give two flips about rent a game tournaments except I’ve gone to support our teams. Go back and see who we played in those tournaments. Suck fest.
