Is Bob Marlin's seat even starting to warm up?

What was the story on why we lost Hassani Gravett to Juco? Why did he transfer out after sitting a whole year on the bench?? He would've made this team instantly better at the guard position and would've pushed Register down the pine.

Could be wrong but I think we signed a guard or 2 that never made it here, seams like I remember him leaving after that

MBB has lost the casual fan. Only the die hards are left and they are disgruntled. Being a MBB fan right now is frustrating. UL still has a great basketball community. Just look at the excitement there is for WBB right now. MBB is ho hum even with one of the top players to ever play here. The schedule is underwhelming and we cannot even have a winning record with this schedule. I like Marlin but I also would like to have (and I think we deserve) a competitive MBB program. I am just not convinced anymore that Marlin is the right guy. I hope he proves me wrong.

Hmm this got me thinking, I wonder if anyone has every switched from women to men on the college level....

I had a friend that switched from women to men in college... it wasn't for me to judge... but I don't think it had anything to do with basketball.

It's always better to switch from men to women unless you're a Jenner.

I'm not going to bash Marlin, but if a change isn't made at the end of this season, it's a loud and clear statement from the admin to us about the commitment to the basketball program. I've always said and still maintain, UL is a basketball school. Crowds, schedule, support and results are all unacceptable. No way in hell this program is 20 points worse than LITTE ROCK. And this is with an NBA player on the roster.

Pretty much what I've been saying since Bobby Big Fish's 2nd season.

---I had never seen a lady basketball game until I became the men's coach at St Louis HS---later I coached and helped some ladies' teams---So much alike but so different---My great coach who had a book published last year on his career (Kevin Trower) wound up at Chapelle in NO after years in HS and college men's bball---First game he gets ready to go in the locker room at half and the girls stay outside---He doesn't know what is going on and finds out they always wait for the dancers' routine first!!!

We are pretty solid inside. Not so much outside. Shooting is so inconsistent and our defense is spotty as best. Sometimes we lock down; not so much later. Guard play is the key for our team and it is not what we need right now. Don't know answer for sure. Pointed out before but our % on shots at guard position is really bad particularly at away games. And the real shame is the kids are such fine young men. Hate for them not to succeed. But, gosh, we need shooters and consistent defense on the perimeter. Painful to watch.

We are two thirds into the season. I think it is clear from attendance and from this board that the fans want a change. How do we get the administration to make the change?

I stopped going to the games. I will not renew my season tickets (because I don't need season tickets to see the this team). I'm sending my message through my seats. How do we all do it together?
