Bustle!!!

[Parrott]

Somehow I think I've confused some people, so here's an update on Bustle's contract:

He got a contract extension after the 2005 season that lasts until Jan. 31, 2011.

He gets an extra year with a winning record.

He gets two extra years by winning the conference title.

I think you misunderstood me or my point did not get across. I certainly do not want to drop football or drop to D1-AA. I was trying to get across, all I here from people is the school needs to buy him out or get rich alumni to fork out the money. I certainly don't make that kind of money. I am not considered as having a middle class salary anymore, but I do give and I am ready for a RCAF and am willing to make a $200 + /year committment to get a treasure chest accummulated. The RCAF will happen but offically, WHEN?, I have not heard. This will unite us and if we join like what I hope the membership will become, then we can have slush monies, we can have monies for deserving coach, have living quarters, nicer athletic facilities, and so. I don't like to talk about firing a coach after one game, it looks bad and fuels the fires for the other non-UL believers. they are really enjoying this. On the other hand, without Ragin Pagin where could we vent our frustrations and tell of our excitement. I just hope it gets better so we don't have another nightmare season.

Trust me IHLst, my post wasn't pointed at you. It wasnt really directed at anyone...It was just funny reading the thread and remembering how upset, disgusted, and disappointed everyone was after the USM debacle...

I'll admit that this team has somewhat transformed. However, by all accounts, the mental makeover has come directly from the senior leadership (with a few other newer guys demanding more from their teammates). I keep hearing stories of Fenroy, Dez and Zanders jumping up and down players throats for not going all out during practice. I truly this feel this is the reason for the spark. And I really fear for next year when these guys are gone. Who will be the emotional leader. I just don't know if our coaches will bring the same heat.

That being said...wow, isn't this a little fun

I don't think any criticism leading up to this turnaround was unnecessary. At the time Bustle's teams had performed below acceptable standards. It looks like he has got this team on the right track, and I hope that this continues in years to come. I will still stand by my statement a few weeks ago that we cannot extend his contract no matter what the outcome of this year is. As stated earlier in this thread, his current contract is good through 2011. That gives 2009 and 2010 to continue success and earn an extension.

With that being said, keep up the good work Bustle! Geaux Cajuns!

It is in his contract that he gets an extension with a winning record and a conference title.

I am all for Bustle right now and I think we have talent to continue the winning next year. Next year will be the true test because he loses a lot of key skills players but if he can continue this next year he will truly start to change the culture here.

I now know our future is alot brighter than it was prior to Saturday's game. You can say that pretty much played the game with our 2nd string defense and half our offense.
