    It doesn’t have to be though. Cameras can go anywhere.

    Tired of the same approach, its not the person its the plan.

    Not all local but these are the appearances I could find.

    Napier made appearances on ...
    RP3 & Company
    SportsRadio 740
    ESPNU Radio

    He should have made regular appearances on non-sports shows.

    Mike Desormeaux needs to get on more shows than the Great Scott Show during football season. He needs to do multiple shows every week during football season and monthly the rest of the year.

    KRVS included

    KRVS will never do a coaches show or interview...its pubic radio, they don't do sports. I don't think it would happen even if someone had $$$ to underwrite it...

    It starts at the Top!!! T-Joe is not 100% committed to athletic excellence in the sports that require the largest financial commitment. If he were, then we would be still on an upward trend regarding funding, season tickets and any semblance of marketing.

    I hope between now and next season, they can find a PR or public speaking class or instruction for CMD...you know...

    While you are almost 100% correct on what to expect, it isn't because they are public radio.

    Radio Hofstra is a public radio station and they have been doing New York Islander games for a dozen years or so and have won numerous awards over the years.

    It's a mindset, which involves having a set mind as to why KRVS doesn't promote the University.

    What you did there, I see it.

    Napier not much better . . . but he got virtually no fans into the stadium for his team’s performances . . . maybe they can get a 2 for one

    Need a salesman, he had no charisma.

    That may not have mattered in the overall equation if not for a lockdown changing everthing.

His comments do more to turn people off than they do to turn them on. He appears to always be in defense mode and not selling his program mode.
    This is sadly a bad message to the community by CMD. But he’s going to be whoever he is.

    He shouldn't care what message board fans think.

UL has a great tailgating scene but too many are walking back to their cars as kickoff is approaching. Also having 2 ticket booths per entrance is beyond inept when the lines are crazy long. Still shocked there was no banner to honor last year's team. Sun Belt and bowl game Champions! There is no better advertising than letting everyone know you are a winner. How much could it cost? Complete failure by the administration.
    Very sad but very accurate. We don’t have ESPN non stop pushing the propaganda they do for the P5 programs. Over the lifetime of the programs LSU has outspent UL by billions. That’s a legacy of wins and additional free promotions.
