Suspect Viator not going to ULM...only trying to push McNesse in giving him a pay raise

My prediction is Mike Collins provided he can avoid parking in any more houses.

Common misconception. We went 2-11 and had a higher average attendance that undefeated McNeese. So regional schools dont fill the stadium.

Viator has applied for many jobs in the past few years

he applied at ULL when Hud got the gig. its sad that mcneese cant give him more money. dude makes barely 100k for being the winningest coach in mcneese history

Well, he's perfect for ULM. The 200K they can pay him will make him feel rich.

Hate to lose Viator, but he's a great guy and coach

I would expect McNeese to promote lance Guidry

We wanted Viator all along. (Isn't that how this works?)

Local ESPN is saying McNeese may outbid ULM to keep Viator.

Guess he finally talked to the president and got the word how much he and university would be supporting the football program.

ULM has the lowest budget in FBS. McNeese probably isn't too far behind them in total athletic budget. And given the fan bases, McNeese can probably drum up more booster support than ULM can.

Will agree to disagree. As the season progresses and they lose more games, reported attendance does appear to slack off. Much of what is sitting there is either watching their kid from a nearby high school play, and/or listening to the LSU game on radio (if LSU is playing at night).

I expect Viator to take a few coaches with him, probably Guidry, Hebert, Leger and Nagle.
