Jax State flat out beat our ass! It was a miracle we made it that close.

UL is a poorly coached football team that didn't deserve to be in a bowl game. 900 tickets sold to a bowl game 2 hours away in a climate-controlled NFL stadium. Embarrassing. I'm not sure why any of us care anymore.

Nah. Maggard went all in on Des and he's going to give him as much time as possible to prove it was the right decision. Des is doing just enough to keep it going at least through his contract. You get a 3 or 4 win season next year that could accelerate thoughts about a change but Maggard will give him all the time in the world to prove it was the right hire.

If we keep Des, and I'm sure we will, change DC and hire and OC to call plays. Our DC was inexperienced coming in and has been a disaster. Let Des be the head coach. He is not an in-game play caller. That is obvious after 2 years. His play calling at critical times has cost us several games and set our program back years. We are 5th in the Western Division ahead of only USM and ULM and we lost to USM.

I completely agree.

I have a problem and it’s that I love this program too much. I’m not sure I can keep it up much longer.

When M$M and I were talking yesterday he mentioned the 900 tickets…I honestly thought it would have been less. Regardless, an awful number.

Stepping back, maybe Maggard made a brilliant move playing the long game. Too long to explain, but it’s there to see.

Only thing he didn’t see was the fan base’s response to increases for fans and MH’s hammering the students. Both hurting attendance.

Maggard gave Martin Hall what they wanted and what they were willing to approve.

I wish they would just let the man do his job and trust his guidance.

If Mike would have the passion and fire of M$M we would be a good team. M$M post game call in to RR was right on the $.

It was a great call.

Another angle from this morning.

Nice picture.

And I would support that. Win 10 games and the SBC and my opinion is changed.

Great. Marlin 2.0

Great. Marlin 2.0

There is a MASSIVE difference in winning the SBC Championship in Football and potentially making the CFP than winning the SBC Championship in basketball only to make the NCAA.

One takes almost a perfect season while the other takes 3 games in March.

Not even comparable.
