Basketball points

[RaginP]

I really want to tip my hat to the students. We had more student support this year probably since the Elfrid days. The Marshall game is the one that stood out to me the most. Haven’t seen the student section like that in nearly a decade. The players 100% fed off of them and the rest of the crowd every game. Just look at the videos from the post game mosh pits between the players and students. They might have just started a new tradition!

While y’all are content letting this dude talk down to y’all, I’ll just say, we were 5 points away from that “overseas” trip meaning absolutely nothing.

People want things to be true. Especially when they get vacations out of it.

The team was good because they were good. Nothing else. Stop the foolishness.

Devil’s advocate, what if that vacation was only good for an extra five points during the season. Worth it?

There’s a reason a lot of companies have a team building budget.

What if the promise of a trip tipped the scales to get Fulks to come to Lafayette?

I was referring to a vacation for the guy here advocating for vacations.

Not my point.

Bob times it perfectly, with his best teams so I know he believes in the positive effects.

He needs to figure out a way to teach without the benefit of an early start.

This is the one point you have made that I agree with.

For whatever reason, when our bball teams do these pre-season trips, very good to excellent seasons happen.

If Marlin believes they create a great team chemistry, then in the years they cannot go, it is incumbent on him to find creative ways to get to the same answer.

Unfortunately they can only do it every 4 years

To clarify, overseas trips restricted to once every four years? Puerto Rico is part of the USA. What about a tourney in Hawaii or Alaska, do they count? What about Canada? Just seems like a weird restriction for no reason.

Puerto Rico is considered international for these purposes. Probably due to the fact it is not a state. Alaska and Hawaii are not considered international destinations. Canada is considered an international spot. I think it would be cool for the team to go to an area in Canada where they can learn something about the Cajun heritage.

Agree

I agree too, but I saw the same intensity with our opponents this season.

So can we win a SBC championship without going overseas?

Doesn't sound like it...
