    The only test that will answer all of our questions will be his performance if he starts tonight.

    Then we will all know. Without that experiment, its nothing more than a discussion topic.

    I have always tried to put forth a position on this board that supports the decisions by staff and players in each instance.

    Support Louisiana, its players and coaches.

    Yes you gave reasons why you think the staff may have made this decision. Your opinion that they are “rational” aren’t supported by the data (on the field results). Whether or not you choose to believe that is up to you.

    And yes, his performance tonight will determine whether or not it was a good decision, and a “discussion topic” is exactly what it is…hence a discussion on a message board.

    I think my track record on here with regards to supporting the staff and players is as strong as anyone’s. But when Coach Deggs preaches having his starting pitchers “get us off to a good start” and preaches “limiting freebies”, then chooses to start a guy who’s been as combustible as any pitcher on the staff for his entire career, and issues more walks per inning than any pitcher on the staff…I think it’s fair to question the decision. There’s no “digging in the weeds” involved, the results are the results, and over a pretty large sample size.

    Again, this staff knows WAY more about their guys than anyone on this board does, and this decision may (hopefully) look genius later on tonight. Marshall has had a few great moments in his time here, and I think every Cajuns fan is hoping that he has another tonight. Go get em Blake!

    And Geaux Cajuns!

    I think the plan here is to tell Blake that the conference tournament starts today with the opener against Georgia Southern ... and that our at-large bid is at stake ... and that we will also let him pitch Saturday and Sunday as long as he has something left in the tank.

    There it is! We're good to go.

    I hope G.Southern laid down a fresh can of blue spray paint on that chain link fence they call a ballpark.

    While on the ballpark subject, D1 has us in the elite 8 ncaa baseball stadiums.

    Yeah, pregame at gnats landing, and if you want bourbon over the weekend make sure to pick it up prior to crossing the county line.

    hate to see anyone go, however that is one less person that CMD will have to try and get bats for the rest of the way . . .

    the other three have contributed little this year and do not foresee that they would have through the end of the season . . .

    From the outside looking in, appears they are trying to find the hot hand and ride it as long as possible throughout the series.

    The road vs home weekend pitching numbers have to be astronomically different so I get it. Yes the competition has been different but not this much.

    Would imagine they’re trying to find 4-5 guys to piece it together. Clearly will need more offense than normal. Still think they have it in ‘em.
