MBB: Cajuns Drop Season Opener

[MountainDew]

Bob Marlin gets an early season opponent at home that is not a NAIA school and takes the L.

Hilarious.

Free throws and rebounds tell the story. UL falls 70-66.

Miss the big guy, that’s for sure. Not an excuse, next man up.

Does anyone really care as long as Bob is the coach. Sad story same song.

We were told going into the season that we were very deep. I’m still trying to figure out how we gave up a 9 point lead in the last 6 minutes.

We were told going into the season that we were very deep. I’m still trying to figure out how we gave up a 9 point lead in the last 6 minutes.

By running a guard trio of wright, Thomas, Garnett, with zeke Cooke at the 5. They toyed with the 2 man game with Thomas and Garnett. We have no depth. Koron Davis, white, fields, Ratliff barely got minutes in second half.

Outscored 15-3 last 5 minutes of first half
And blew a lead at the end of the game. Bob gets out coached in crunch time.

Happens all the time, but yet he is still our head coach. It will continue to happen.

If you attack the basket, you better make FTs. Couldn’t.

If you’ve got a hot player, get the ball to him and run screens to do it. Didn’t.

Had hands on ball for rebounds but couldn’t hold on to them. They were bigger and stronger. And we were seldom in good position for rebounds.
A couple of runs of great defense. And then little conversion on the offensive end.

The double technical hurt us because they got the ball back. Ref missed obvious charge. Our big gets spit on and it’s party time. I had no problem with our response. On our court. Didn’t change outcome as we didn’t play well enough to win.

Not sure about this team. Lots of players are too similar. Hope is all I have.

Men and women each win their games if they shoot free throws.
