  2. Default ESPN 1420 Late Houston Rally Puts Away Louisiana Women's Basketball 63-51

    Houston used a late rally to put away the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns women's basketball team. The Cajuns fell to 6-2 this season.

    We hired Degs over Geuatreaux because he was close to the program... imagine hiring Dez over Lanning for the same thing... vomit

    And all this time we thought Dr. Maggard was a great AD . . .

    Maggard is an excellent administrator. I’m sure there are reasons he’d never discuss in public on some decisions. Covid was a nightmare administratively. We are blessed to have him. But we, as fans, are not happy with MBB and the usual excuse is what he gets paid; we should demand better. My point is simple…who, if anyone out there, ever hired anyone to be mediocre? Same applies to coaches. I’m sure Maggard doesn’t have that mindset. But it’s hard to bust a coach middle of the pack when staff peers finish at or near the bottom. Money I’m sure is an issue for non revenue sports. But it didn’t mean accept less in performance.

    Anything less than a championship season/NCAA appearance is irrelevant. Be it 2nd place or last, if you’re not making it to the NCAA’s you’re ULMOST making it.

Both basketball coaches extended but neither setting the world on fire, one NCAA between them ~20 years combined? T&F, individuals has had their moments. Tennis, golf, bottom half of league more often than not.

    So if we pay someone in the lower half of the conference scale, it’s ok to suck?

    Other than football, softball and an Olympic pole vaulter, what has UL Athletics done post season NCAA wise lately? It’s not just a basketball thing, unless that’s the plan.

    And some got the joneses over men’s soccer. Another freaking sport we’re so far behind in last place is a given. Marshall is only good because a benefactor pumps millions into the program. MILLIONS in a sport that usually draws under 2k unless the opposition is ranked team

    Oh yeah, we can waterski!!!

    Love my Cajuns, but my goodness. Not a lot to be excited over when the vermilion colored glasses are removed.
    This surely appears to point fingers high and wide and is surely not limited to basketball.

    The last extension was earned by contract. Nobody was trying to poach Marlin. The prior contract extension was also created by performing. I’d say Marlin clearly has a top tier agent.

    Last years extension had nothing to do with performance.

    Every coach got a mulligan last year. Keeping your team healthy and playing all your games last year was a 24/7 job.

    In the 21-22 year, UL in the fall seasons:

    Football 1st out of 10 teams
    Volleyball 3rd in west, 6 in division (6th out of 12 when all mixed and tiebreakers)
    Soccer 10th out of 11
    X Country W 11th out of 12
    X Country M 9th out of 10

    And no, ULM doesn’t always finish last.

    Know it’s mainly minor sports, but apathy abounds and is infectious.

    Winter sports are indoor track and basketball. Expect much of the same.
