sleepy Posted March 26, 2010 Author Report Posted March 26, 2010 Who do you think they will hire terror??
lu cards Posted March 26, 2010 Report Posted March 26, 2010 marlin going ul-l seems like a lateral move career wise.those dollars must have done the trick.
Guest mffl Posted March 26, 2010 Report Posted March 26, 2010 Goes to show how much better the Sun Belt is... or how much highly regarded it is.Terror, when will the katfans forum be up again? Or do you have a link to the new one? Just curious what your fellow Bearkats are saying.
Lazeek Posted March 26, 2010 Report Posted March 26, 2010 Hopefully SHSU will hire Roc.............that will be two wins for LU each year against the Bearkats!!!!!!

Maybe Barbee will hire him as an assistant at Auburn. They have a history together.

Sunbelt has proven that they can get an at large!Also if you go 26-6 in the sunbelt but loose the post season tournament, you still have a shot at an at large. Not hapening in the Southland.

The Sunbelt is a better basketball league like it has been mentioned. More money for Marlin, and the opportunity to get an even better gig if he has success at ULL. COngrats to him.
