Cajuns Sign a Point Guard

[Cajunsmike]

I agree with everything. It was sort of a tongue and cheek answer based on our past criticisms of coach Marlin and his lack of true success yet he continues to get extended and even given raises. I do maintain though that unless there is a debacle, he isn't going anywhere and that is straight from CajunsMike's mouth. This administration likes his stability too much to do anything even if we continue to finish 4th in conference and not make any NCAA tournaments. He's too much of a comfort blanket for the administration at this point.

I think there is more pressure on the staff at this point than I was led to believe months ago. Still, lots of athleticism on the team we will put on the floor this year. I guarantee we will be improved on defense and on the boards. Chemistry and offense are something I cannot predict. There is a reasonable chance for a high conference finish this year.

Bust? I doubt any UL coach has to get to post season or bust.

Doudou with the flush

Then they play 2live crew over the PA... "Don't stop, get it get it. Don't stop, get it get it"... Then the crowd sing "DouDou Guye... DouDou Guye"

That is my Opinion. In my mind if they do not make the NCAA tourney this year, I will consider this season to be a BUST. Coach Marlin has had an above average career at UL. 1-10 on NCAA appearances is what I look at. So this year with all the talent on the team if they do not go dancing, then to me this year will be a BUST.

If the NCAA appearances is what you look at, how can he have had an above average career here?

Come on ZEff, NCAA or BUST

Point is I would argue his career here is "above average" Reluctantly I would agree but there are so many areas for which I feel he has underperformed. Outside of that, I want to see a strong season. I want to see a more athletic team and more physical team that competes on the boards. I'm happy that it seems he's gotten a totally different type of athlete into the program over the past year but the issue was that those players were here to replace the other players that he recruited.

I want to see a team that can win consistently. A 17-18 team that happens to get hot in March is not a sign of success, its a sign of fortunate timing.

I still can't get over how many people on this board ignore the fact we won a championship just two years ago.
