Basketball was the King of UL sports back in late 60's, 70's and even 80's. We were ranked in the top 20. It is hard to believe that this basketball program has digressed this much. The older fans have given up on this program.
Losing to ULM the way we did is unacceptable. No other way to put it.
Really sad to see Fulks playing like he is. He was so important to us last year. He can't beat anyone off the dribble and his shot has gone overboard. It's basically time to think about Thomas ahead of him or at least bring in Thomas sooner. Garnett is the same. The entire league knows the scouting report on this guy and they are just running him off the 3 point line and he doesn't know how to finish at the rim or even shoot a mid range shot.
We missed so many open shots last night it was shocking. I know Marlin will say something about sometimes the shots just don't fall but he screwed up big time when in the first half, we were running the press with some of our subs and we got it going. He should have stuck to that and then used it more throughout the game. They clearly had problems with our pressure. And when you're not hitting shots very well, getting open looks from pressure is exactly what you need.
This season shouldn't surprise anyone. We're doing barely OK, but same old regression following a good year. Par for the course of CBM tenure. If the Cajuns don't win the SBC Tournament, Dr. Maggard should ask CBM to resign/retire whatever after this season.
