It is so hot and humid you could put a bowl outside and collect soup

I enjoy my mornings on a patio with a fan overlooking a river. Not sure what the weather is like in Lafayette but there’s not a cloud in the sky here.

Embarrassed also for this administration. How you can’t capitalize on a winner the last 4 years is laughable. No marketing, no outreach to the community, no visible effort. It’s just pure complacency and we’re leaping backwards. That’s on you.

I’m really starting to think it’s almost intentional from Martin Hall. Unless AD Maggard has been converted, there’s no way he can be happy with the overall product and lack of community outreach, etc.

Well last week I complimented USM on thier in game experience and bringing 27,000 to a thursday game and some jumped on me I'm ok we are fans. I'm one of those that are done for the year. JMO I feel either we fire Dez, or he hires an offensive coordinator to run the offense. Dez is not a play caller his plan is not working. He gets complacent and vanilla he doesn't have the killer instinct. He's too busy looking for the next play instead of coaching these guys. Next, he needs to hire a new defensive coordinator with experience I watch our DC give away two games in a row. Our guys played hard yesterday but were put in bad situations by the coaching staff. We're getting what we paid for. I feel sorry for our SRs who have put in so much work. For first to worst because of the coaching staff. I wouldn't be surprised if we have a lot of players transferring.

That's what JamesTheJeweler said last night on the RR show. They don't care.

Went to 7:00 mass this morning. It was so humid the entirety of my truck is wet and it sits under a carport. Had to use wipers all the way to church and it’s not raining. Everything is wet.

I’m not a “fire them” guy. But I am all for holding someone accountable for doing their job. You’re getting paid for this. Explain yourself to those who buy the tickets, donate, buy the merch. The dedicated few who are still in the damn stands. There are alums and fans that are actually invested in this program. All our programs. But these people are not stupid and they’re not without limits. You can only be let down so much before the desire to support wanes. That’s how you get 7 thousand.

MAT would ask the question.

That’s the thing. Bring it up. Talk about it. Acknowledge the issue. Then propose solutions. Don’t just flush this season and move on to baseball/softball where you are near tops in the country. Gives you a false sense of accomplishment then when the fall comes around we’re in the same boat.

Not taking any heat off of the community either. They need to support and they flat out have not outside of a few games during the Napier tenure. I used to think Lafayette was better than this, but maybe they’re not. My faith in our culture is fading.

I go to almost every game what reason has UL given the local community to go out and spend their hard-earned money on this product, in game experience, schedule or get excited about this hire. I hate to use Hud as an example, but he didn't care if you were a big donor or no donor if he saw you out and about and you had on Cajun gear or said his name, he stuck his hand out talked to you and made you feel like you belonged to this program. His attitude made me buy into what he was doing. I wanted to give him my money. He didn't take over a winning program, but he built the culture. He didn't dress or act like he wanted to be one of the guys he was the coach the motivator. I haven't seen any of our coaches out in the community or at any events. Nor have I seen a smile on Dez face.
