re: #23 Louisiana 70 vs Monroe 20 l final

NLU sucks - Not Even Worth It

USL Sucks - Go To Hell USL

La Tech would beat the dawg spit out of either of them.

Actually if they combined the two teams Tech would still have better players and destroy the Louisiana ISD.

Tech hasn’t played in a month...I think Cajuns would roll Tech this year though.
BUT when they have played Cajuns are 0-8 against Tech. UL-L hasn’t won since the early 90’s!!!! Lol

Some of those teams from the late 90s were worst that what ULM showed up with today.

Come on, baw! We beat Wofford by a field goal in a classic at Cajun Field back in ‘99!

Looks like the basketball team really sucks this year

of course they do. Our savior is a fricking pasty arse white frick.

My junior year was so much fun when we made the sbc title. Everything else concerning every other sport since then (including the ones I competed in) has sucked.

Looking back, Nelson Stokley was probably just tired of fighting Martin Hall towards the end of his tenure. 7 of his first 10 seasons were winning seasons, finishing Top 2 in the Big West Conference the three years we were in it. Then his last three: 5-6; 1-10; 2-9...as then-President Ray Authement ramped up his bleeding out of USL/UL Athletics.

That's why as much as we like to make fun of our in-state conference mate in Monroe, I actually feel bad for them because they're going through the same shite we suffered in the 90s and early 2000s.

We feel your pain, Pedro.

We had absolutely no resources to recruit to, and the recruiting budget dwindled even more every time we would win. Why? Dr. A thought "Well, why do you need more? You can win with what you're being given now."

Now, we have a President who supports athletics with an AD with SEC experience who knows what he's doing. It's frustrating that this happened back in the day because if we would've put in the efforts back then that we are putting in today, no telling where we would be right now.

I've posted a couple times about the stories I've heard about how Dr. A's University functioned. Some years ago, a large company donated a money generating asset to the academic program I graduated from. It amounted to a photo op and good press for the company but it meant a lot more to the employee of that company who went through all the avenues to facilitate that donation.

The idea behind the donation was to generate funds to send students to conferences, innovate curriculum tools that made the program the best of its kind etc.. what ended up happening was that Dr. A directed the asset and its revenue into the university general fund.

That meant that the revenue that was specifically generated for this program went into a broad pot of funds and the program director had to make itemized requests for funds and justify every dollar. Like you said, "why do you need more?". In my conversation with the program director I was told that in the years the University has had this asset, very little of the revenue generated has been put back into the program the donation was intended for. The guy that worked so hard to secure the donation was absolutely disgusted with how mismanaged it was.

I assume athletic donations were similar. Into the University fund and then athletics had to justify spending it.

I'm now curious as to what you graduated in as I know of something similar with the program I was in.

Affirmative.

Riiiight. You assholes staged a temper tantrum to have ESPN call you "Louisiana" when you're not. Then when you finally get ESPN to call you what you want, you're all "hey, I'm just calling us what ESPN says".
