Because we are not lafayette

If every Cajun team had Acadiana only players they would lose every single game.

Not if nobody else had acadiana players

. . . the recruiting issue is that we may be competing for the bottom of the 3 stars and we have hardly any NIL budget, even at that level . . .

All we have to do is tell (and have media to tell and backnit up with stats) that cajuns are able to turn 2s and 3s into 4s and 5s whereas how many p5s turn many of their 5s in to 2s

Babb was a scholarship. Might have been Bustle’s 1st offer I believe.

Did the school pay the 400 or tops?

TOPS paid tuition + $400, $1k scholarship was from the UL Foundation

The real trick is that if you can get a full scholarship from the university, then you basically get a check for the amount of your tuition every semester. That’s living the life right there.

Real talk though. If you have a player that can get a full ride academically and are honest with them that they'll be treated as a scholarship player, a coach would be dumb not to take advantage. If Hebert was butthurt because he didn't get an athletic scholarship (caveat that an honest conversation did happen) and he wasn't willing to give it up to another player who needed it, good riddance. Team players win championships.
