Is Marlin the guy for the program?

[facelessjonmoon]

Let's try to get this thread back on track. Considering all 13 seasons that Marlin has been at UL would you bring him back next year? Yes or No? I will go first. No I would not bring him back.

I understand what you’re saying but no one is going to make that change immediately after having a good season making the tourney. That discussion could have been merited after a couple of previous seasons but not now. In a what have you done for me lately world, he’s earned an extension

And that's why this conversation is misplaced. Timing matters.

Who is worse the RPCA or the RebClub?

It's exactly what we talked about. The thing that exacerbates this whole Marlin thing is the extreme factions on each side. The sycophants will sugar coat anything he fails at and the Big Fish'ers will dump on anything he accomplishes. It's the Tim Tebow effect.

We need more people who understand two things can be true at the same time: He has underachieved in several instances AND this year, he did a good job and earned his extension. Doesn't mean he gets a life time contract AND it doesn't mean he should be on a year to year contract with a base salary of potato chips.

Oh Man, that's too easy....

According to article they actually have 8 total, but all 5 starters off of a very good basketball team this year. That hurts, many of those 8 could end up at APU where the coach will be heading next year.

I watched a few of Nw State's games this year, they were a good team.

They could if they follow their coach. Their leading scorer will be a grad transfer, so will AP have his program? Both he and another stater are transfers from Missouri State. They both can play.

Not in the Top 25

14-19 ( 2018 )
4-14 ( Conf Play )

they were terrible…

Yes, I'm aware they ended the season terribly. When the Cajuns played them earlier in the season, they were undefeated and receiving top 25 votes.

The question is irrelevant at this point. But to answer your question, yes you bring him back unless he leaves for another job. The coaching fraternity is strong and letting a coach walk because you refuse to extend a coach that won his conference tournament, won 26 games and lost by 3pts. to a Sweat 16 team would be damaging to the program from a national perspective. That's the larger picture.

Thank you.
