_ A stadium refurbishing is planned for next summer, prior to the 2008 season. _

Are you serious? lol i didnt think it would ever happen, where did you hear of this?

Desermeaux was actaully pretty impressive Sat. They had a few drops from the receivers that would have made his passing numbers look better. Hate to talk about next year already but the receiver position (along with defense of course) needs major improvement.

if desormeaux stays on track he will account for 3100 yds and 20 td's. i would say that is pretty impressive. he is definately doing his part. not to mention besides his numbers he and fenroy are the motors that make this team go. now as it looks grant flemming will be the motor that runs the defense for years to come.

If they get rid of all the dirt and mold from the stadium... it'll look different.

You seem surprised. He has been impressive in every game except McNeese (no one was impressive in that one).....

Michael Desormeaux will be remembered as one of the most exciting players ever to wear Vermilion and Red and for that, will be remembered by his Sunbelt foes as one of the most dangerous players that they have ever played against.
Michael is SUPERMAN and not since Tommy Casanova have I ever seen an all around player as he is. THANKS Michael.

Along with lots of other items to address to become a bigger time program:

CLEAN THE BATHROOMS!

Figure out how to get 33,000 people in and out quicker. They can get 92,000 into Tiger Stadium faster than we can get 33,000 into ours. The McNeese game was a joke.

CLEAN THE STADIUM!

If we can't do these simple things to make the game experience more palatable, then we should hang it up.

_ Conque was interviewed the last time we made a coaching change. So, he certainly should be interviewed. But until he wins a conference Championship in the SLC, he is not at the top of the list. He hasn't answered the question yet at UCA now that the quality of opponents have improved. _

huh?


In their 1st season in 1-AA last year, they finished the year RANKED.

In their 1st game versus a 1-A school, ever, they DOMINATED La Tech everywhere but the scoreboard 5 weeks ago.

Anybody following the situation up there knows he is building a very good program, and it's a just a matter of time until he wins his 1st SLC championship.

If and when the time arises where we need another coach in a couple of years, passing on Conque simply because he hasn't won an SLC championship yet would be very short sighted.



Look at Steve Roberts. Arkansas State hired him after he compiled a 12-11 record at NWSt. No championships. Roberts inherited a team that had won the SLC championship 2 out of the previous 3 years, and he did nothing with it.

Yet, he gets hired by A-State and took a program that was languishing in the 1-A doldrums to a BOWL GAME 4 years later.



One last thing.

Conque sent 4 players to the NFL off of last year's team alone. The guy knows talent.

The next time we are looking for a coach, the only people that will be more qualified than this guy will be current, successful, 1-A Head Coaches, who won't be applying for the job anyway.

I was thinking the same thing

He will also be remembered as having one of the worst records for a starting QB in school history.

That is a shame.
