- SMU --a team LA Tech beat down 51-10 in the 2017 Frisco Bowl-- won the AAC Conference championship this week.
- Liberty University, a school very few of us ever heard of 5 years ago, just won a trip to a New Year's Day Bowl.
The point is, there WILL BE LIFE for LA Tech football after the Sonny Cumbie era ends. All of these teams faced the same "Transfer Portal" issues and "NIL recruiting" issues, etc....that LA Tech faces, and yet they figured out a way to have very successful seasons. We just need some Tech leaders to grow some balls, make a few tough business decisions with personnel, and GET OUT OF THE WAY.
This seems so common sense and straight forward, yet we will be amazed at just how difficult this will be. I hope Henderson is the guy but like D80 said, I think he is just here to get in his 20 years and retire, especially given how he was hired.

The management of Louisiana Tech University is doing something right in spite of so many doomsday posters on BBB. Check this out:

The list also does not include Southeastern Louisiana University nor the University of New Orleans. Does this decrease its merit any more?

Honest question... not trying to troll here.. What programs is Tech nationally ranked in? Having hard time to find it. We used to have top 5 Petroleum Engineering program, and Bio Med program. Do we have any academic programs that are in top 5 or 10 in country?

Actually, yes, since both SLU and UNO are better than some on the list.

This is not my reply that I submitted to Techfann01. Someone hacked into BBB and changed my reply. I replied to the effect that those that Techfann01 was referring to were the charter members of the CCC Club, and if they had a goose that laid gold eggs they would CCC (Complain-Criticize-Condemn) because they could not eat the eggs. BBB is now behaving like our FBI and DOJ. What a shame. Yep, this behavior has the fingerprints of the CCC Club all over it. I strongly suspect one particular very prominent member of the Club Regardless of who he is, he is a coward.

Very well stated. Is this what this board has become? I total agree about the "CCC". Disappointed that this board subscribes and condones and continues in this vain. Especially changing members replies. As you appropriately said how "cowardly".

Is it your contention that we have a golden goose?
Responses should not be changed, I agree.

No one was contending we have a golden goose, only "if". Thanks for agreeing "responses should not be changed".
