Shawn Long transferring from Miss St. to UL

[CajunFan3406]

Or the LA schools in south Arkansas

That too

[Just1More]

This is huge for UL basketball.

T.. can you tell us how big this is for us? Can you explain what this means for the next two years plus?


Also if Marlin interviewed for A&M this year... how long can we look for him to stay with us?

Who is our most highly touted basketball recruit under marlin so far?

You know we already talked about this, but Gathers would be a super star here.

Please refresh on who Gathers is.

Ricardo Gathers

Barkley would be a fair comparison. Obviously not that good.

[anhil8tor]

He is being recruited by some big schools right?

LSU, St Johns, Syracuse.... course he'd be a star here.. he may be a star there too.

[SlappyCajun]

He has an offer from Duke... I doubt he is thinking about the Cajuns. He already committed and decommitted to St. John's after Lavin was diagnosed w/ cancer.

[anhil8tor]

Kids gotta be sharp to goto duke...

On twitter I think Josh Parrott tweeted that Shawn Long is transferring to UL to be closer to home? any viable info on this subject? Im pretty excited if so as this is a great addition to the team as long as the ego stays in check. but then again, having character on the team can be entertaining to watch!

People here said he's a head case and was actually asked to leave:
