MBB Schedule 22-23

[JMV JustMyView]

i have been in the room on more than one occasion when doc explained his level of involvement with the mbb schedule. he is more involved than farmer. not hard to do cuz farmer did nothing. marlin has the lion share of responsibility for schedule. well him and murphy. if you want to say its on bryan because he kept in as the coach then thats a talk we can have

Cleaning the locker room and being noisy doesn't count.

It appears then that Dr M looked at it and felt it was acceptable. Why is everyone still complaining?

I know it's your job to protect the decisions of the admin, but it might accomplish more if you remained silent on this than to endorse 3 games of such low calibre.

You are correct about The USM and SLU situations. We play USM twice as conference games. SLU ended up having to play more conference games than anticipated due to schools coming back from the WAC. I would not be surprised if SLU comes here in 23-24.

I'm just happy Louisiana finally figured out a way to get a Home-n-home with USM.

I’m not endorsing any specific game. In fact I provided that Louisiana College was D3 before the changes to Louisiana Christian last year.

All I’m saying is that if Dr M did what he said he would do and this is the schedule, maybe that is just the best we can do in this total climate.

Maggard is accountable for this--he is allowing it to happen. Marlin reports directly to him. If he wants Marlin's schedule to be tougher, he can tell Marlin to do this. He has stated he will be more involved and the schedule continues to suck. The accountability is on Maggard because he is allowing it which means he approves this. Football schedule is no different, who is the common denominator--Maggard

another thing marlin minions do is compare basketball to football at every turn. you think this mbb schedule is anything close to fb schedule? i dont see football playing exhibition games in the middle of the season

Just expand the league to 20. We would have 1 payday game and the conference schedule.

We had a home and home scheduled with the Golden Eagles before the conference expansion. We went to USM last year. We lost a non- conference home game when the league expanded. Of course that was a minimal price to pay considering the benefit to the league with the expansion. When that deal was agreed to, it was unknown they would be joining the league.

We should move to 20 conference games with 14 teams in the league. As it is now, we have one team we won't play. Play everyone in the West once, and 6 of the 7 teams in the East once. Why not play one team in the East twice and rotate that school annually.
Other schools in the league need more home games as well.

not wasting my time on a program the school dont care about. but i will make a comment about the program being held hostage by the booster club. the head of the booster club and the wife of the coach should never be friends like they are friends here. it should be against policy for that level of fraternization. it played a role in keeping marlin employed. it was posted here before but how did they have money to go to puerto rico but dont have money to get good home games? something stinks there

the coach blames the ad for giving money away to other sports and gripes about basketball budget but refuses to raise money. he wont take time to raise his own money like other sports but he has plenty of time to mobilize his minions to attack anyone who speaks ill of him or his goofy assistant murphy. the people around here that are supposed to love cajuns basketball should be ashamed. yall let this group of socialites wanna bes take over a once proud program. it has been held hostage for 13 years

No policy would stand up legally when attempting to tell people who they can and cannot be friends with or socialize with. Especially when those two people are private citizens. Jennifer Marlin was also good friends with the late Gail Savoie. She mourns her to this day.

Note, I looked at another schedule release. It shows we go to McNeese on December 15. The one shown here earlier without that game came from Twitter. The one with the McNeese game on it comes from the Ragin CAjun MBB Facebook home page. I have confirmed the one with us going to Lake Charles to play the Cowboys on DEc. 15 is correct.

Note, I looked at another schedule release. It shows we go to McNeese on December 15. Note sure what version is correct. I suspect the one with the McNeese game on it is correct.

Will probably make that game. Interested in seeing their new venue. Seems like a really cool idea having the venue within the APC. Growing up in LC, I can’t emphasize enough how badly they needed a venue like this on (or close) to campus. Driving out of town to Burton was terrible.
