Man that sucks for UL fans

I'm sure they will be punished more severe than North Carolina. NCAA is so corrupt.

If the Cajuns can get out of this without too much punishment, it is probably a good thing in the long run. With this on his record and other issues, ULL will be able to keep Huds long term.

Yes,assistants often enjoy unilateral giggles while keeping the single greatest benfactor in the dark RRRRIGHT..........

how dumb did the recruits have to be for that to happen? it can't be that hard to get into ULL

This will not go well for ULL...

Will trickle down to future recruiting

We went thru something similar about maybe 10 years or so ago with our basketball program. It spiraled us into a disastrous period of being awful. We are just now in the past few years emerging from it.

You have sympathy for ULL fans? Seriously?

Are you claiming Hud had direct knowledge of this guy's actions and approved of what he was doing? If so, please share your evidence.

Yeah, as someone said above, it sucks for the fans, but rules are rules and everyone signs up to play by the same rules. I'm hoping that what's being said on the Cajun fansite is accurate.....that the university discovered what the guy was up to and reported his actions to the NCAA. Unfortunately, the NCAA doesn't always hand out punishment on an even-handed basis in such cases.

And you know, as one looks at the number of schools where this guy worked (including at least a couple I saw from the Belt), I bet this sends shivers down head coach's spines. At the assistant level, it's a literal coaching caroussel every year and one never knows who's bringing what to the program when he darkens a door.

Yeah, from what I can tell the school tried to do the right thing. Hopefully the NCAA takes it easy on you guys.

Best case I could see is 1 year bowl ban and loss of maybe 12 scholarships over 3 years

IF TRUE:

This sucks for the Cajuns. Time to punish a G5 school to flex NCAA muscle to the P5 schools? Even if not true this could hurt recruiting. And it doesn't really matter if the coach knew about it or not.

Good luck Cajuns.

unfortunately, not knowing isn't the defense it used to be with some of the precedents that have been set.

the NCAA expects the head coach to know what's going on with his program. "knew or should have known" and lack of control will likely be used to deliver some kind of punitive action.

honestly, though ,with the BS thats been going on up in chapel hill for years, I'll be rather annoyed if they do too much to a G5 in this scenario.

My comments weren't offered as a defense of the head coach. The head coach makes the hires and sets the tone of how he expects his staff to operate. He has ultimate responsibility for their actions while operating within his program and under his guidance.

My comments were directed at poster WW who it appears was insinuating that Hud had to have known what was going on and then did nothing about it. Personally, I'd be shocked and amazed if that was the case knowing what I know about Hud's history and how he operates at a professional level.

I've been around long enough to know that karma's a ***** when it comes to making fun of another program's student athletes who get into trouble with the law. Crapola like this often falls into the same category.

Not going to lie, I'd rather go to Orlando.

Orlando most def

Wow that's rough hopefully things work out. I.e. Take away a few scholarships, bowl ban.

Are there any players left on ULL's roster that this guy recruited?

Most certainly. He left the program abruptly last November.

maybe he means the average 24,000 plus football fans, and not the 25-30 fans on a message board that get under peoples skin. thats how i take it.
