re: Lance Guidry Out At McNeese

God forbid you say that on other McNeese boards and facebooks pages. The blue hairs will jump down your throat demanding you go to QB club meetings and donate if i wanted a higher paid coach as if my measly donation would make a difference.

Oh, so you are familiar with Doc and his band of sunshine pumpers on the Geaux Cowboys page, huh? Lol!

Those guys make me irrationally mad sometimes. They have a lot of nerve telling people they don't have the right to complain if they don't go to meetings.

After the Lamar loss, he posted something along the lines of “Ill let you all get out everything you need but Monday I’m going to shut off all those comments!”

Yeah, I remember that. Made me seriously consider making a new page. That is frickin ridiculous.

Nothing will ever change at McNeese as long as the attitude prevails. And they wonder why less than 11k people actually give a shite to make it out to Cowboy Stadium 5 or 6 times each fall.

Doc who? Holliday?

Yep. When McNeese was dominating, ULL was trash, SELU and Lamar werent around so McNeese got most of their players from the SE TX area around Beaumont.


As soon as they starting splitting players with those schools the talent went down. Go back and look at some of the talent they had on the mid/late 90s and early 2000s teams. They had 1-2 guys that would make NFL rosters every year

That message board group is a joke. It’s a bunch of “ get em next time boys” and “we love Guidry because he’s one of us”

Good god what a joke. They are happy with a lunch pail and participation trophy


Wake up

How would you describe $11,552,190 in "direct institutional support" in Statement A, Page 12, in the attached report?

i mean

that's basically robbing peter to pay paul.

I remember 2-3 years ago, I was complaining on the board about the fact that McNeese didn’t recruit anyone outside of Louisiana or Texas. All the while, every school in the country (even Div-II schools) would have kids from out of state on their roster.

With 247, Hudl, you name it, there’s no reason for them to find kids from Florida, Mississippi, Georgia, you name it. There’s numerous outlets where these guys could find recruits. Just be regional. Not just Louisiana and SE Texas.

Anyone want to guess the response I got whenever I brought it up?

You guesses it. “If you think the coaches could go farther, maybe you should donate and pay their gas mileage.”

My point wasn’t even to take a road trip and blindly recruit a kid. Start with an email. Gauge interest on the phone. Then you go and figure out a way to get your guys over there. Its been a couple years since that’s happened and now we have since landed 4-5 kids from Florida. A couple Northwestern kids, no less. Hopefully, whomever they hire understands that recruiting exists outside Louisiana and SE Texas. At least Guidry recruited Dallas and San Antonio also

One is self generated and one is from gov provided funds.

Sure ????
