Glasco leaving

[Cajunrunner]

Well, if UL softball can't raise any NIL why would it discount tickets? Seems counterproductive right?

I mean…maybe we can pay the new head coach only $80k a year and give the fans a break on the tickets?

Just one catch, though…good luck trying to keep dominating the SBC and especially trying to keep in national contention.

I wonder why Craig Snider couldn't build more of a winning program at Texas Tech with the conference affiliations and all of that NIL money available to him? Why is there this thought that Glasco is going to turn TT into an immediate contender?

Good question. I don't think it's going to be as easy as some people on here think. In 3 years and change Glasco will be 70 years old. It's going to take him that long to build a respectable team. With the graduating seniors and the players who transfered, he is left with not much of a team that's capable of winning many games. Of course there are transfers. But, he's going to need a third baseman, a short stop, a second baseman, two outfielders and players who can hit, plus, a couple of pitchers. Texas Tech went 21 and 29 last year.

Glasco if I were a UL player unless I get a nice NiL deal.

Had the same thought. But that's probably why he's no longer the coach. Maybe Glasco can, maybe he can't. People brought up the coach from Southeastern.I imagine if he were hired here their fans would be saying the same thing. "Can't blame him...bigger program...bigger conference...bigger fan base...more money etc etc."

Snider was only there 2 years, and it was his first HC job. Maybe he just wasn't up to the job.

We know Glasco can recruit. There are advantages of being in the Big XII and having money available for NIL that he did not have here, thus my opinion that he can quickly build a contender in Lubbock.

I'm not sure anyone mentioned being a contender, but I think he has the connections to rebuild the program quickly and compete with the top of the conference more so than his predecessor. I read that they have made a comment to help with more NIL money. I guess it comes down to remaining at UL with limited NIL (he told several supporters he needed $500K Yearly to compete in the Top 20) and play a schedule with Baylor, Arizona, Oklahoma St, Arizona State and Utah. He doesn't have to schedule these programs. I'm not sure he will be successful, but he has proven he can win with the resources he had at UL and perhaps that's a battle he's tired of dealing with.

I think he will take 4 players with him. That may help speed up the rebuild.

Not sure about that. He was a top assistant on a national title team.

The portal has tons of players, the difference is he will have funds to go get some as well.

I agree but he will also take some with him.

[R1Letterman]

He visited the facilities, campus, etc as an analyst? No he just played a game at the field.

A. Why do cajuns consistantly allow our opponents more access to/use of our facilities than others do
B. If ncaa kept their own definition of analyst, one could argue analysts wouldnt even need to make the trip, but are they analysts or extra uncounted coaches
C. That road trip was more hours on campus than 99pct of navy recruits have on a naval ship before signing up

As expected.
