ULL lost to a middle of the pack Southland school at home. I'm not trying to pile on, but when they fired Bob Marlin for being a bland competitive coach, they should have had the next phase of the plan teed up and ready.

ULL lost their two leading scorers from last year (Jaxon Olvera and Dorion Finister) to University of Portland and UNC-Charlotte. Guess ULL is cheap and can’t keep any talent.
But in defense of ULL those two aren’t exactly killing it at the new schools (avg 5 points and 10 points) in their first games.

They did.
They hired an assistant from one of the top programs in the country (Houston); an assistant who also had experience in coaching in Louisana (Tulane assistant).
Seems like a well-inteded hire to me. Sometimes things just don't work out.

They are investing in baseball like the rest of the Sun belt. There is no sense in any Sun belt school investing in basketball. It’s a one bid league

Put your resources in a sport you can win nationally, baseball

Fair point. It might be a situation of a coach who was used to success at UH and is having a difficult time pulling them out of a rough stretch in the last year-plus.
