Our Men’s Basketball Program’s Future

I talked to Brad. He said if he was the HC of the Cajuns his goal would be to win the National Championship. That's the mind set we need.

Lol, how bout winning district 4-2A first

This horse has been beaten so damn bad the last 4-5 years, there's no glue to be found.

Some people haven't learned to spare the rod.

Some people haven't learned to spare the rod.

Afraid a lot of disappointment is coming.

Sorry, but Des and Brad are miles apart on personality.

And the consensus of the fan base was definitely not claiming that Dez would fill up Cajun Field just by being local like the previous poster is claiming.

I'm super happy Des has worked out as a great hire but he's not the Hud rah rah type to go out in the community. Brad Boyd does bring some of that element that is sorely needed with MBB right now

Jessie Evans ran a system that wasn’t ISO ball and we were much more successful.

Bring back exciting, ATHLETIC basketball and the people will show up.

Jessie is only 74 does he still want to coach?

[Mr. Consensus]

I’ve been hearing rumblings of a name pop up in town.

Cord Wright - Lafayette Native - STM Graduate.

Head coach currently at Northeast Mississippi JUCO - Reigning coach of the year.

Went 27-5 last year and is off to a 19-0 start this year.

71-4 record over his last 75 home games and 45-5 in his last overall 50 games.

Guys young, has spent years in the conference before as an assistant and has been the head guy at Northeast now for sometime - most importantly - he WINS

Juco coaches in this era of college sports with the portal are going to benefit from their experience of having to reload each year.

His dad played ball for the Cajuns back in the 70s.

He is well connected in the community.


Heard his name bounced around from several who are in the know. He is one to watch.

[fanof71]

Doing all that with a team that has no one over 6'7.

Denny's son?

[Mr. Consensus]

Yes - Dennys Kid - keep an eye on him.

[cajun4life]

Is he an actual candidate or is someone just floating his name hoping it will get traction?!

[ZoomZoom]

Anyone see an actual job posting with qualifications yet? Think it’s getting time to start the search.
