2021 New Orleans Bowl: LOUISIANA (36) MARSHALL (21)

I’m sorry but your last comment had me spit out my coffee from busting out laughing.

Hey, I never said I was holding my breath or betting money on it! haha

I stayed at the Sheraton for SBC media days. It's a really nice hotel. And, I saw no issues whatsoever.

But hey, wherever you want to stay is up to you.

The hotel itself is nice.

I'm talking what's outside the front door.

The area is fine during the day. Having spent a lot of time for work in the New Orleans area since the pandemic started, it starts to get rough around sundown. The city reeks of marijuana and the cops could not give a ____ less if people are lighting up right in front of them. Personally I stay away from the quarter but I won’t blame anyone for wanting to be in the middle of the action. Just be careful at night and be aware of your surroundings, just like it’s always been in New Orleans.

…….,I guess I have a really different take on the NO Bowl……I’m recruiting and as I go through our schedule with the future Cajun telling him of our schedule and ending up with a Bowl mostly in NO where it is a treat for the team and so our Cajun Nation can come and enjoy and celebrate another great year…..and remember the recruits from all over Louisiana and Mississippi can visit to see us practice and see the fan support…..NO is a great destination no matter whom we play……and how about dem Cajuns?????

Heading to NOLA Friday and staying at the team hotel. Friday night party is at Mardi Gras World so I hope there’s a shuttle from the hotel because I’m definitely not driving anywhere. Where we meeting Saturday morning to start drinking? Can’t drink all day if you don’t start in the morning!

I guess the issue at hand is......When do the asst coach contracts expire? Billy leaving prematurely came with a $3M check from UF.

Guys like PT, Juluke, Des, and Leger had contracts that expire on January 14, 2023. I'm sure some of the other coaches have similar contracts, but I could not locate that information.

They can simply resign. No buyouts for asst. coaches.

Assistant coaches do have buyout provisions. However, in the cases for guys mentioned above and that are heading to UF, they satisfied their contract by coaching in the CCG.

Yep. There are TONS of great hotels in the poydras/warehouse district. Recommending staying on the north shore for the Nola bowl is just plain nuts. If you want to avoid the city just stay in Metairie or Kenner.

I stayed on Canal Street in the Team hotel for every bowl game in NOLA. It’s a great environment and shouldn’t be missed.

I heard a statistic somewhere that if you separate New Orleans from the rest of the State, we automatically jump to 21st in the country for education from 49th.

We love Hilton Riverside. Self parking tower, walking distance to Quarter and Aquarium and connected to the Riverwalk.

We going to play a football game there, we not going to school . . .
