Won convincingly on New Years Day at home. Now for the return trip. ULL has struggled this season, but no road game is a gimmie. We need this game obviously to try and creep closer to Denver (who in a great piece of luck for them, has Thursday off - giving them a week to prepare for us).

I think WKY has been sliding a few or many big bills Mr. Wright's way every year around SBC scheduling time. The way JJ has been recruiting the bill slide trick it's going to help WKY!!! :sword:

Or maybe Denver having the week off could cause them to be a little rusty when they play us next Saturday. It could help or hurt them.

That is true, though I would suspect most teams do very well when they have Thursday off, but play Saturday.

This is a deep, athletic team with a lot of inter-changeable parts. What they lack in a true point guard, they make up for in lightning quick guards and facilitating forwards...what they lack in a true post presence they make up for with athleticism and toughness.

I said after watching their second game with NMST, ULL would finish second in the West. As we all know, I'm an idiot...but in this case I can't for the life of me figure out why the Cajuns haven't been better.

Hopefully they don't figure it out for a few more games.

Well, if you see one Mean Green fan at the CajunDome tonight, that would be me. Decided to make the 2 hour trip to Lafayette with one strategic stop at the LauBerge Du Lac Casino in Lake Charles before heading to Cajun land.

CMJ, P1, and UNTBill, hold down the chat room while I'm away.

I think we are figuring it out; but this team is not as deep or talented as last year's squad. It appears they are finally beginning to buy into the new coach's process; but we are thin at a lot of positions. You guys "should" win this fairly easily; but like someone said, it's a road game, and anything could happen. Hope you guys represent the Belt again in the tournament. I know Denver has been playing really good in conference; but you guys are a more talented team with tournament experience.

Our only losses are on the road and some have been real head scratchers. Denver's conference record is more of a result of advantageous scheduling than it is an indication of their talent level, imo. We get them twice in the next 3 weeks, so I'll guess we'll find out.

I appreciate NT having the away feed for a change but the ULL announcer is insufferable. Not to mention having two replays of every ULL goal. Makes you thankful for NT broadcast group and the fact that they don't do the replay on every NT bucket anymore.

Back to the game, team just not in sync yet. Another case of a fired up team versus NT so far just hanging in there. Hope they play much better the second half, a lost to ULL would be hard to take.

How are we playing tonite? Not looking good right now based on the stat sheet. I don't think we're shooting 50%.

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      Some of you think these professional athletes have to go to classes?

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?
