Did we play west florida last night or did nobody go to the ____ing game to take updated pics?

The freshman get more out of a red/white scrimmage than playing a Lafayette Middle equivalent last night. That was not an "experience building game"....nope

Played in front of less people than they played in front of in H.S.

These games hurt more than they help......

Mob Barlin is saving his a55 by bringing in those transfers for next year. The writing on the wall and he played a card that he's never even had in his deck to prolong his mediocrity for a few more years... See y'all next year

I hope you don't think I am making excuses for Marlin. I would have fired him the year we went to the NCAA for not winning this crappy conference with EP and Shawn and a decent supporting cast. I was just looking for anything positive at all, no matter how tiny it might be, about playing that game last night.

Same old same old. Some want to discuss basketball and some just want to beach, moan and whine. Some of you could save some time and energy by just copy and pasting the same old beach sessions.

All good. I'm just sick of Marlin and sick of the press/media spinning wins like this into something GREAT. I'm just tired of this basketball program. First time in 15 years I didn't renew tickets and not one person seemed to wonder why? That's a problem in my eyes.

We are the worst D1 program in Louisiana this year......bring that to the bank

So you're happy and content with our program and just wanna discuss X's and O's huh? C'mon man.......that's funny

[CajunRebel]

Pathetic.

First year I have not renewed as well, when they called and I said no, they said "ok thanks" didn't ask why, didn't try to sell me, didn't mention the new dome...nothing zero...ok thanks, click. Besides I figured I'd save my money on season tickets in case we make the SBC tourney championship I'll go to that since that's the only thing we are here for anyway.

Not saying I'm content. We should always strive for better and I have posted that my support for Marlin is fluid. Right now he is the coach and I choose to support the team.
My question is how many times can one post about how unhappy they are? It seems as if some posters are just chomping at the bit waiting for a game to end to _____ about the team, Marlin, etc.
Did you not renew as a form of protest? How do you feel about the political protesters that either didnt vote or are not even registered to vote?

Don't bring that stupid political 5hit into a basketball conversation.....it's got NOTHING to do with it.

I didn't buy because it's such a 5hitty product PERIOD!!! Would you continue buying clothes that tore after you washed them the first time. Would you buy food that spoiled before you got it home from the grocery store, would you buy season tickets to the Browns......nahhhh didn't think so.

Political.....huh that's a funny spin


We are atrocious. Our coach is a monotone blob that's stuck in the 80's. His philosophy stinks, he couldn't win with NBA caliber players, he only cares about a few games in March....shall I go on? Nope, lets just discuss the records we broke last night while playing a team that would lose to STM.

Here's a positive....Beer lines will be short when I do go watch a few games once NFL and College Football is over.


Like I said - See ya next year for Mob Barlin's redemption, contract extending year.

Not a valid comparison. He DID vote. He voted NO by declining to give any of his money to UL basketball. That is the only vote he has that could make a difference.

I did the same, just not to the same extent, by cutting my season tickets in half.

As to complaining about the team, no one has called out players here; quite the opposite. Every complainer is complaining that Marlin's teams are not as good as his players, and that leaves poor coaching as the probable cause. The games we win, we do so by overcoming his coaching. The other major complaint is with scheduling. Players or 'the team' have nothing to do with that at all. That is ALL on the coach.
