    R-E-S-P-E-C-T from Louisiana Voice

    If you look for more on Louisiana politics than you'll find on TV and most print media, you probably know about Louisiana Voice. This afternoon they called out "The Advocate" on behalf of Louisiana Tech Baseball (and our university and conference). If you haven't seen it, you should. And so:

    I notice that was written by Tom Aswell. I thought he was a writer for the Advocate. That was really good. I may send a copy of it to a Tech alum/Big LSU Fan that lives in BR.

    Several of us raked Tom Aswell over the coals a while back .

    He certainly made up for it with this article.

    Thank you Mr. Aswell! I was surprised to see that he authored the article.

    I remember "Butch" from Tech days. He didn't like being ignored and was totally independent in his thinking. I do believe he listened openly, however.
    Not sure he's changed much.

    Wasn't Aswell the one that wrote the article saying Tech should go back to FCS?

    Yes, he is. Everything he writes is with background and opinions. A columnist you don't always agree with. But, there are just as many times you do agree.

    When I was at Tech in the late 60's, I would visit fraternity brothers from Baton Rouge and other places in South Louisiana. Never could find any coverage of Tech. Had to really look with a microscope to even find scores on games. No radio coverage or internet, so there was always literally a blackout on Tech coverage.

    Clicked on over to the advocate's sports page... saw a Tech player....looks like tech is getting coverage. Instead, a lazy link to latechsports.com

    So finally, The Advocate has posted an article about Louisiana's presence in the College Baseball Regionals and included Louisiana Tech. A coincident after Louisiana Voice shamed them? Call me cynical, but I think not.

    I pick up a copy of the Advocate, especially their Sunday edition, from time to time and actually they do not give any coverage to Grambling, Tech, ULM, or NWLa. Its as if no one up here even exists. It appears they just ceded this part of the state to Shreveport Times and Monroe News Star.
