2023 Coaching Carousel

[JMV JustMyView]

Some of the people who gave and gave and gave and gave are now getting old. There are those of us who gave and feel we got nothing for what we gave so we will not give anymore.


Football: during Napier's years we gave and saw a program on the rise. Napier left and what did we get for all our donations? Let's just say "not much".

Basketball: Years ago we were a quality basketball program that could play with the big boys. We gave and gave, and what did we get? Bob Marlin, the king of mediocrity.

Baseball: Tony had our team ranked #1 in the nation. Tony was not only an amazing coach, but he was a more amazing person. People who gave to baseball gave because of the way Tony ran his program. What did we get? I think the jury is still out. Our new coach is not Tony, but in my opinion there is not a coach in the country who could fill Tony's shoes. I'm not saying he was the best coach in America. I'm saying he was the perfect person for the UL job. We were blessed to have him.

You gave and felt like you should have got something? When you donate you shouldn't expect to get anything back.

1) I think he has done a good job under the circumstances

2) the team has under achieved and he would be the first to tell you that

Not sure why you can’t have those opinions and also not think he should be fired

Since you say the team has under achieved, no way can you he has done a good job. The under achievement of the team is the direct reflection of the coaching staff. They had one of the weakest schedules in the country and played 500 ball.

Expect victory. Expect it. You are paying for victory. Not giving for anything less. Period.

I agree with you but "underachieved" can be due to a lot of things besides coaching.

The inability to think quickly in unique game situations I put on Coaches and their early game reliance on scripts. That absolutely stunts their in game thinking ability.

The other factor not on coaches is player injuries. That is huge factor in underachieving.

Injuries happen to every team. Didn't the Cajuns have the next man up mentality?

Right, underachieved and overachieved can apply to any team, and there is always a unique factor involved.

Fritz to Houston is official. Wonder if Tulane will hire Slade Nagle or build on their momentum and go all in on their next coach…

Lost coach and QB. Makes next year’s game a little less daunting.

ULM is targeting former UAB interim coach and OC Bryant Vincent as its next coach, sources tell @YahooSports. Deal not done, but discussions are serious.

As coordinator, Vincent led a turnaround this season of New Mexico’s offense.

Great hire for ULM can offer

Good! Now they will get their Billy Napier treatment. Watch the staff and portal.
