Maggard doesn’t fund anything but Football…
Soccer has shown marked improvement the past couple of years. Key was a good hire, even though he’s stepping down. Maggard will get another one to keep raising the bar. Simply making or winning a game in the sunbelt tournament should be the floor in terms of expectations. Keep moving onward and upward.
Off subject, but I sure hope we can get men's soccer soon. SBC will be a legit men's soccer conference soon.
We need those sports for coaching, and football offsets.
Kind of like when Al Gore buys thousands of forest acres to offset his jet-set lifestyle. It’s all for our own good.
So we can suck at another minor money pit sport that we’re miles behind from the get go? No thanks. This this site already had the Marshall men’s soccer discussion, we don’t have anyone willing to dump millions into soccer like Marshall at UL…men’s or women’s.
That can be said about every women’s sport. If not for Mr. Lamson, our women’s programs are historically putrid with brief blips on the radar.
I imagine there’s not much of a discrepancy in pay between a DIII school and a G5 DI school for women’s soccer. If he got a job closer to home for the same pay, good for him.
If we are still keeping our um… “lesser sport” coaches on low salary, one year contracts, that tells you what kind of priority we actually give to these sports. So how can I get worked up about something like this? It is what it is.
These sports matter to players, families, and coaches obviously. Throw in coaching families and that’s a wrap.
We are running off good people because of Covid Stupidity.
