_ I meant that the kids who are supposed to do it are too young and don't do anything. At one point Daigle and the referees are literally wiping the floors themselves. It took forever to get the floors wiped everytime _

I'll stick my neck out there and support you on this one duggie. You nailed it too. Particularly on the side of the court opposite the students, the kids seem to be extremely young (4 or 5 Tops, some look like 3). Daigle was getting after it almost everytime with the towels.

Great night. Can't wait for Saturday. Baseball's gonnna be fun tomorrow too.

That task means a lot to those little kids and will remember their involvement. Players and refs only care about player safety. They joined in and followed up quite appropriately.

Let these kids have their fun and get them involved. A little extra time, but hey...

_ It has been a while since I followed Cajun Basketball. This team is exciting!!!! _

23 of 27 at the line, out rebounded the opponent, had less turnovers than ASU. That kind of effort makes up for a night in which the shooting was not there. I think we are all kind of sad basketball will end soon. There will be a lot of anticipation for the future in the off season. What has happened in the last few weeks gives credence to my view that we have the potential to be the top basketball mid major in the south.

_ Didn't catch the WK player that threw the ball into the crowd after the buzzer all PO'd . Maybe it was 23. Is that grounds for disciplinary action? _

It was Allison of ASU (not WKU- we play them Saturday) who threw the ball into the stands. He is the guy who had the big scoring night. Understandable he was frustrated. He had a great game and I am sure he feels that late free throw he missed cost his team the game.

actually the youngest kid on that side of the court was raymone andrews 5 year old brother who has been a ball boy since the game against the gents......that would make him 8-0 as a ball boy, the guys calls him their good luck charm, the girl was raymone 8 year old sister, i was told the older kid who usually works that side the court couldnt make it tonight.

Just imagine what Marlin would have been able to do with guys like Bureau, Gary, and Daigle given four years with them. It's gonna be nice to see guys actually improve as players over their time here instead of regressing (Gradnigo).

You really are kidding about the ball boys. Those kids do a fine job. UL winning streak started with Raymone's little brother first game being ball boy. They see him as a good luck charm. The refs love the little guy. Believe me if its still wet thats the refs job aint like clocks running. We won great job Cajuns. See ya Saturday.

Amazing isn't it? With 5,304 in attendance on a Thursday watching a team with a losing record provides the first clue. This program hasn't even gotten started.

I see fun times ahead.

Wow, some definitely looked younger than that, but I'll take your word for it. NOT a big deal at all. Was just trying to point out that Duggie is not necessarily wrong in pointing out that it was taking a good while to clean up the court.

_ Raymone scoreless in game

Bureau scoreless in 2nd half

Raymone on the board with 2 FTs _

holy ____... that comment dropped my emotions down a level. That brought to light that they need to be more consistent..I'm sure coach will drill that into them.....

[jllanclos]

This is not a knock on anyone, just an observation from someone who thinks it's funny...every loss we lament together on Ragin' Pagin...We've had such a culture of losing that even in the wins, we say "Boy, couldn't we have not looked like fools? I mean, 6-0? Couldn't we have done better on ESPN?" or "Why does it come down to a blocked PAT? How ridiculous." or "Sure we beat Denver in triple overtime. But we're terrible." OK, I'll give you the last one. That was true.

But it's nice to be creating a culture where after our 8th straight win, you have to look as deep as the sweat on the floor to find something to lament abou.

It's a great day to be a Cajun! LOL.

Way to geaux ballboys and ballgirls. But Saturday, I expect you to keep your heads in the game. You heard Coach Hud...even the basketball ballboys and ballgirls have to step it up for us to be successful!!!
