Exactly…the critic is never the man in the arena, pretty wise man used to say that often

We are getting what we paid for. I am a REALIST and I call it like I see it.

You will lose guys every year too bad there is not a portal to back fill gaps with. Chandler played very well that is not an viable excuse. USM played their 3rd string QB and still won in cajun field

Some people will find every conceivable excuse. Valid or not.

This is 100% correct. We are so far behind in the NIL race we might never compete again.

We just hit up the few deep pockets we have to build the stadium. Now where do we go to get NIL money to keep our star players???

Between the stadium, RCAF, multiple NIL events, the foundation’s 500 million drive and repeated fishing in the same hole, even the deep pockets are down to lint.

The same folks over and over donate. I am just about donated out.

Willie Fritz off to Houston?

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.

Does it though? Bc the media like his name? He is almost a willie taggart, Keeps getting fired but for some reason keeps being given opportunities. So if it doesn’t work it’s okay bc he is a name guy. It’s fine to fail as long as you are a house hold failure

You’re reaching man. Many Diaz has a better resume than Napier had.

I’m still hoping for Des to get things corrected. But after two seasons I’m not sure it will. It’s not a talent issue, it’s mental discipline and fundamentals.

Hiring Desormeaux was a very high risk, high reward move. As it stands now, it’s not turned out well.

Not reaching at all, that’s literally what I said. He keeps getting fired but he keeps getting opportunities, like Taggart. Of course his resume looks good.
