I hate to say this, even as big of an optomist as I am with Cajun athletics. In my opinion and this just what I think, I have no basis for this opinion, but I think the Cajun RPI has hit its peak.

Though this is post loss, and if they had won last night, I think I would still agree with you.

Mainly because the average RPI of he next 3 opponents is 240, so even winning those games will likely result in a small RPI drop.

I'm afraid of Denver, though I remain optimistic we (or some other Sun Belt team) may be able to knock them off come SBC tourney time.

God Bless.

p.s.- I also agree that RPI has probably hit it's peak, or that it's peak is not much higher than it is now.

I have thought for the last few weeks that even with wins over USA, UNO, and NMSU a toll woul be tallied on Louisiana's RPI.

What held back the drop was LSU coming up big. But last night with Denver & WKU losing we win and still drop.

I'm thinking that if all UL's past opponents can come up big the rest of the way UL could see a nice bump.

I'm just reminded of how the Lady Cajuns softball team's regular season RPI dropped with every win late last year.

If Louisiana can get a win or 2 or 3 in the tourney they will crack the top 50 in RPI.

Then no matter what happens in the post season -whether they make it or not- they will not drop out of the top 50 and might even climb.

This in my estimation is nothing short of amazing for a 1st year coach who was losing his top 3 shooters coming in.

GEAUX Cajuns.

It doesn't seem like we are still in the same season that a rookie coach named Lee was sort of reeling with a 3-5 record, 2-5 vs D1

Since then, the 16-5 record -all against D1 foes- has me thinking the Ragin' Cajuns and Coach Lee will win tonight.
