Four bold predictions for Louisiana football ahead of Michael Desormeaux's first season

[NewsCopy]

Michael Desormeaux certainly has a tough act to follow.

The first-year head coach for Louisiana takes over his alma mater, replacing Billy Napier, who guided the Cajuns on a raging tear the last four seasons winning 41 games and three straight Sun Belt Conference championship game appearances.

So Cory, I have to question this article a smidge. First of all, I don't know that Des has ever been out of the state of Louisiana except for a recruiting trip, or a vacation. So, I don't think that qualifies him for the prodigal son role.

2ndly, you have UL defeating FSU in Florida & winning all of their non conference games, yet losing in the west? That is a bold prediction. A little bit weird, but hey, to each his own.

4th) If UL has 4 NFL draft choices, the Cajuns will almost certainly have won the west & should repeat as SBC champion.

It's the whole "hot take" trend thanks to irritating, but somehow very popular, personalities like Stephen A Smith and Skip Bayless. Sports shows overall, TV and radio, have become worse for it.

I would say this new guy at the very least seems to be trying.......what is fact is that he clearly has tremendous upside potential. ��

It’s good to see more local coverage of Louisiana athletics.

I do think he is trying to be better than his predecessor.

I believe some of us saw what could be with coverage from Luke Johnson, and we’re yearning for that type of coverage for our athletic program again.
