Season Average

[1stTake]

Looks like the average got better and better after the second game of the season. Whatever happens this year we need to pick up next year where we left off this year.

what happened this year is that we were 1)winning, 2)playing better teams then alcorn state and bethune cookman, and 3 were in the middle of a race for a championship. I think our attendance will be up next year with the teams that are coming here and the overall talent level of this class could have us looken for a shot next season too.

I'd like to see a gamma distribution of these values as well at the Arithmetic mean of all home games on weeknights during this period.

Please put special emphasis on the weeknight games where we used our two best pitchers.

Thanks, Z.

The time has again come for fans to come out to see the Cajuns play no matter who the competition is. I enjoy marquee games as much as anyone, but the best team that has played in the dome this year has been the Cajuns and they appeared 11 times plus the 2 exibitions. That should be enough reason for fans to show up.

I more then anything want this to happen, and I want people to go to games for the cajuns, but in most mid-major markets, if your not playing decent competition, Fair-weather fans wont be there. I want people to be there every game more then anything, because it creates an intimidating enviroment, but the facts are that UL still has a huge amount of Fair-Weather fans, and unlesss the 3 things I mentioned are happening, the Fair-Weathers wont come out.

LAFAYETTE — It’s kind of like being on the short end of the score in the Super Bowl. All of a sudden, everyone asks if it’s possible to bounce back.

When Louisiana lost its season finale to Western Kentucky, 69-66, last Wednesday before a national audience on ESPN2, it decided the regular season champion in the Sun Belt Conference.

It also snapped a 21-game home win streak for the Ragin’ Cajuns and obscured a season of achievement as they head into this week’s Sun Belt Tournament.

“We beat a Top 10 team at Mississippi State, we won 20 games and we repeated as champions of the Sun Belt West Division,” coach Jessie Evans said. “That’s pretty good.

“I always see the glass as half-full, not half-empty. I accentuate the positive. If we give 40 minutes, playing the best that we can possibly play, we’ve proven we can get the job done.”

The Cajuns, who won 10 of their last 12 games, were looking for plusses after the disappointing loss to WKU, which is the heavy favorite as host of the Sun Belt Tournament.

“The only positive is that we go back to the drawing board and work on the things we need to improve,” Evans said.

Game time only. Louisiana basketball on the Internet

For the last few weeks Trigger74 has been lobbying for Louisiana's basketball tournament games to be broadcast instead of baseball.

Seems he was successful. I am sure many out of towners thank you.
