Michael Desormeaux Press Conference - Nov. 13, 2023

[zephyr]

. . . yes, all 30 who post here . . . pretty small sample size, wouldn't you say . . . and it is interesting that those fans who are not satisfied are not attacking anyone, but the fan who provides support for a coach, player or University and an opposing view is an attack dog, but not the fans actually attacking . . . let that sink in . . .

Justified criticism is not an attack. And you are not attacked by anyone. You troll and people respond to your trolling nature. Nobody is attacking CMD. To do that, they would have to actually communicate their displeasure to the person they are "attacking".

Historically after Baldwin, after Bustle, after Huspeth...

Members of this board have gathered names of potential candidates. Some wishlist candidates. Some known candidates, some pie in the sky candidates.

Others would bring up points about why the suggestions would or wouldn't work.

Desormeaux was announced so fast there is no wishlist to refer to.

I heard Kevin Sumlin was on campus.

[KajunKrazy]

. . . I don’t know that answer but like I said, the candidate would absolutely not have had some of the attributes which made CMD an attractive hire . . .

You are 100% correct. My birdie says Maggard read on Des’ resume CHSNI and that was all he needed to see, to know he was the guy. No other candidates offered that kind of eliteness.

[KajunKrazy]

Yes Nelson the Athletic Director not David the punter turned RCAF guy.

Did you mix up David Walker and Nelson?

[Big Poppa]

. . . maybe, maybe not . . . and whoever that may have been hired would have to deal with Napier gutting the talent and coaches as well as NIL and free transfer which CMD had to deal with and Billy never had to deal with here . . .

Maybe that other person coming could have kids from where he was coming from that wanted a new start and other opportunities to replace the ones Des lost. Des lost kids to the portal but refuses to go to the portal to replace them. That model is proving not to work in todays college football. It has to go both ways.

[Turbine]

Did you mix up David Walker and Nelson?

Probably. LOL

Except David Walker killed the Athletic Advisory Board along with 48-CAJUNS

[cajun4life]

Tends to happen when you build a team from scratch in the toughest conference in America

People actually never take that into consideration.

It’s clear you think this is some sort of joke, but I can assure you it isn’t. I saw you at the game Thursday, and you weren’t even wearing a hat. If you aren’t gonna embarrass yourself with classless attire in person, why embarrass our fanbase with it on your podcast? If you insist on wearing a hat, Kangol only from now on. Forward facing please. Show some f’ing respect. Baby Jesus didn’t kill Hitler so you could walk around looking like a clown. You aren’t Ken Griffey Jr.

And back to your podcast. I don’t care about the hours you put and the free promotion the program gets from it. It’s too negative. The next time we lose to a 2-7 team on national television check your attitude at the door. Talk about the positives. I had a lemonade at the game. It wasn’t half bad. The line to leave when the clock hit zero was almost nonexistent. I can only assume that was due to a world class effort by our event staff and had nothing to do with the empty stadium. The band’s performance of the greatest hits of 1947 was utterly rousing. There were so many positives, and you just searched out the couple of negatives (like the insignificant football game) in an effort to tear down the university. For shame Gary. For shame.

fabulous.
