The Glenn Cyprien File ...

[vatican]

It is my understanding that none of this is news to Nelson, he has researched it and found that Cyprien was not guilty of any violations -

Give him some credit, he would not put himself on the line with an important hire without doing his homework and getting the end of the story as well as the allegations that you posted.

Lets all get behind Cyprien and the Cajun program. Let him enjoy his day tomorrow.

PS. While doing your homework, how about looking up implicated (v. implacated) in the dictionary.

That's not my point. This information should have been put out there in the interest of full discloser. The information is now on the table for all to disect. Now, I will support this guy and hope to be there Wednesday to hear his press conference in person.

How many of us knew who Ricky Bustle was when we were looking for a football coach? I didn't know much about him and he wasn't the guy that I was hopeing for at the time. It's the same thing with Cyprien. He's not the guy that I was wanting, but what the heck do I know. I didn't interview any of these guys. Every one of us had a favorite. The decision has been made by the people who are paid to make these type of decisions. It's time for us "fans" to get on board and support the new coach.
Thank you "cajun express" for you "clear headed" comments.

Well said redbug. Go Cajuns in 2004!

Agreed. Let's support our university. I don't know what went on in the hiring. Cyprien has very good coaching experience & he is from Louisana. Maybe he'll make it his home again for long time. Just like a couple of previous post, I hope it's not a step on the ladder in the near future for him to go to another program. I feel for Coach Lee. I think he or Ricky Broussard would have been good choices.

I would certainly hope that Robert Lee is offered a pay increase as well. It sounds like he deserves it.

My feelings exactly, RedBug and CajunExpress!!

[CajunChicken]

All of the four guys except Robert Lee have questionable recruiting practices. But those were the four "BEST CANDIDATES" that Nelson could come up with. Yeah right! I bet they were hoping none of this would come to light. Thanks for sharing Guru. A new coach with questionable recruiting tactics. Great Job Nelson, AD, and Ray!!!!!

Awesome hire? Some of UL fans are all the same. They could have hired Adolf Hitler and you would be saying awesome hire. You mean we didn't do a background check on this guy? Paying players at UNLV! Way to go Nelson and Ray. GREAT HIRE. That's what you get for interviewing 4 of the same candidates! Is it to late to cancel the press conference.

Don't be naive people. There is some degree of cheating in every Division 1 program in the country. Believe it or not!

Bottom line is he is a great hire and he will do a good job. Be happy.
