Coach Desormeaux

[JamesTheJeweler]

Don’t you guys realize, all that was built on recruitment was destroyed by NIL monies and “the easy to leave” transfer portal. The NCAA is no longer an amateur sporting event but SEMI-PRO BALL. Yes we are starting over, with new , young talent. I WANT Coach DEZ to success
GEAUX CAJUNS

That's a weak excuse. Every school is facing the same circumstances. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

[JamesTheJeweler]

This is the painful truth. I hope he's eventually successful, but he's definitely in over his head right now.

We knew this before he was hired. We did it anyway. New USL....same as the old USL.

They don’t know any other way to operate.

. . . it will be interesting to see how many complaintants here put there money where their RP posting is and contribute to the collective being set up for Louisiana to give at least some modicum of NIL support . . .

No complaintants, only observer's commentary.

My opinion for what it matters:

-Offense did enough to win
-Ben had a great game
-No sacks for OL
-Team looked well conditioned

Those are all pluses on Coach Des. Defense lost that game, and not sure who that ultimately falls on...Coach Morgan? I don't know the dynamic and control between those two. Did Coach Des let CLM make all defensive calls the entire game? Did Coach Des ever say, "our guys are getting killed up top, can we do x/y/z?"

The loss isn't on Ben, and I think Ben deserves to be QB1 moving forward. But I do think ZC could have won that game in the final 4 plays.

I had to stay off RP after a hard loss like that. First time jumping back on lol

You’ve been around the complex. You know the answer.

I wonder if the RCAF and our coaches have been give a list of names they’re not allowed to solicit for athletic donations.

You know…just like the “old days”.

I, tried to tell you guys last year you pay peanuts you get monkeys. If I wanted to watch a high school coach and coaching staff I would go watch Mabank High, Forney High, North Vermilion High, Abbeville High, etc. Entry level coaching gets the Cajuns entry level results. Maggard had a chance to strike while the iron was hot and dropped the ball. When only 12K folks go to the next game they will only have them selves to blame. The renovations of Cajun Field will be the biggest blunder in all of sports when only 12K will be in a new 36K stadium. Yall got the prodigal son courtesy of the good ole boy system. Is it softball and baseball season yet?

Come watch
Abbeville/NV this Friday at Abbeville. JV Wednesday at NV. Come introduce yourself

I heard yall best running back is down. Are you saying yall have college level coaching on staff? Is the AHS staff better than UL? Better players than UL? What exactly would I be watching? Tell Coach Moy hello and I know you very well from your days at NHS, NVHS, KHS, BBHS, and AHS.

Yes. Even better we had AC and no chance of rain in September.

I came back from that game vs Miss State in the Dome and said Levi was the future. Never imagined two consecutive top 25 seasons though.

Then NIL hit us in the groin with this horrible transfer portal setup and here we are. Covid also didn’t do us any favors as far as Cajun field crowds under Napier went.

I also remember many here did not believe in coach Napier early in his tenure. Des deserves our support. Many gave up on Napier when Coastal beat us at home. That worked out pretty good in the end. Everything in this world is a process.

Too many bandwagon fans in this area as it is. Gotta try to enjoy the process otherwise why bother at all. Starting to sound like CajunVic, better stop!
