ULM hires new HC for Basketball

[Geaux]

Likely an unpopular opinion but I think Monroe needs to go and Tech needs to take their place.

Yes. We need our real natural rival in our conference. Send ULM to the Southland Conference.

[Turbine]

Yes. We need our real natural rival in our conference. Send ULM to the Southland Conference.

Great artificial rivalries can grow within a conference. No doubt.

For me a "conference" should be for things you can't accomplish on your own.

You should never be in a conference with a "natural" rival.

Enhance your OOC schedule with natural rivals.

USM was a nice add in that regard ….. it also gave our northern rival some “separation “ in CUSA

His last sentence, we’re in the same boat.

Until the administration begins to understand that the game has become the secondary draw to the event. Hudspeth made Cajun Field THE EVENT to be at for 3 years and people just happened to go to the games.

When it’s only about the game, people get a better game day experience at home on ESPN+. It’s cheaper, more convenient and easier to incorporate it into your day than actually going to a stale atmosphere, outside of the stadium.

We have priced and policies our way out of the event atmosphere and manor only about the game. We do not showcase enough consistent marquee matchups to garner large crowds based solely off of the product on the field.

Until the administration can get its head out of its proverbial ass and realize that the section of our base that creates said atmosphere, isn’t the wine and cheese crowd we might begin to see more support again.

HUD era was getting potential fans out that USL mindsets.

Yes, UL needed to go up on the costs of some things. But the across the board money grab and the tight fisted control on future fans sent people to ESPN+, at best.

Some people: we need to associate with higher level teams/conferences.

Same people: we need to associate with our natural rival, LaTech.

I will NEVER understand why ANY Cajuns fan want to associate themselves in any way, much less want Tech in our conference. Why the hell would you want to help elevate that program from the doldrums that it has found itself in. LET THEM ROT.
