MBB Final UL 86, UAB 98

[CajunVic]

Everybody take notes. This is the exact mindset that has sunken this once proud program. #frythefish

. . . oh, will definitely get tarred and feathered here . . .

People can (and will) continue the incessant griping about Marlin. Today, UAB simply had better players, and when they finally decided to guard, UL had problems.

It happens. Still think UL will wins its share of conf games (very mediocre league overall it appears early on). But the last 8 mins was tough to watch.

You say UAB had better players. That goes to recruiting and retaining talent. That falls on the head coach. So yes, it is Marlin's fault the program is in the shape it is today.

Hard to believe we haven't hit rock bottom under marlin yet.

First, it's injuries. Then, it's lack of fan support. Then, it's NIL dollars. Then, it's Ragin Review. Then, it's random people who don't like the coach for no reason.

Can we hold our head coach accountable just once? He's the man in charge. He's been in charge for 15 years. I don't mean to come off as rude, but this is the lowest of lows I have seen this basketball program in my lifetime; and there is no excuse for that.

Knew what I said would be taken as I’m a Marlin disciple. You guys are amazing.

Sorry, I don’t go on message boards saying fire people, the HC is cruising to retirement, he doesn’t care. Worked with too many coaches to know how much losses kill them.

And quite frankly I doubt I watch another minute of this year’s team. All I said was here comes the normal fire the coach after a loss and an observation that UAB had better players.

Settle down experts.

I believe the NCAA death penalty sunk this program before

You would not be wrong.

Fortunately that fan base never left and the program bounced back big less than a decade later.

Won’t watch another game this season. THANK YOU for sharing your expertise.

This team will get better.

Marlin's good teams are usually built around one good player.

This year he will need to build a team.

[CajunSID]

You’re welcome.

Can’t get worse

You’re welcome.

Don’t be a stranger. Even if you don’t watch the team, don’t let that stop you from lecturing the fans of said team. A little more wisdom like yours and we might be able to get our average attendance below 1,000.
