Has Guice, Holtz and the former AD guided Tech to irrelevance?

[Amos Moses]

I think Tech should change it’s mascot from a bulldog to Mickey Mouse since that’s who we act like in the big scale of things. When everything falls out and the dust settles, we can all pinch our noses for the shit pile we’ll be in thanks to our pathetic leaders and failed visionaries. With no trust or confidence in him, Guice should be replaced. Let’s start there and let the dominos fall there after.

Totally disgusted with our "leader" Guice and his crony "Dr." Wood. Add in the athletic council as well. Pussies all.

Your favorite C-USA commissioner hired Dulaney, the former Big10 commish, to break ground for her into this past month's activities. Kinda too late, huh . . . if he had contacts.

Indeed. The Blind leading the Blind.

Once the Big 12 invites the other members of the AAC they will be short members. Then Tech will go.

That's a good point. But in the meantime, Tech should be discreetly talking to the MWC and the MAC. We gotta stay relevant for the next few years until the Big XII invites SMU, Memphis, etc...

I say hang around the cusa until the exit money is received from the bailing 6-9 schools, then declare independence. I know independence is a tough road to travel, but we did it before.

Does LSU and other state schools have an athletic fee? I thought we did in the '70s

In the 70's, Tech students voted in a "Student Fee" to build the Maxie Lambright Center. But that money did not go to Athletics. It was for a Student Center.

I agree so don't understand why we are always on the ropes. We should be at the top

Size of Athletic Budget. LA Tech is the shortest midget in the room when it comes to Budget.

It will have the opposite effect. If we stay in CUSA and invite a bunch of cream puffs to the conference, he will have a pretty easy path to 8 wins, and he’ll never leave. If we go Indy, he has a built in excuse for losing. Win-win for him.

History says, we'll eventually just play down to their level. See UAB, FAU, ODU, etc...

I don't even know if CUSA can remain an FBS conference long enough to collect the Exit Fee checks. They've already lost 6 schools, and now we're hearing USM, Marshall, and ODU from CUSA, are headed for the Belt, along with JMU. That only leaves 5 schools --including Tech-- in CUSA. Furthermore, with JMU off the table that only leaves Liberty to TRY to recruit for membership. Assuming we succeed, that will take CUSA to 6 schools. Doesn't a conference have to maintain 7 members to remain an FBS conference?

Hello NMSU.

The six schools who have officially accepted an invite from the AAC should pony up exit fees immediately. They are good as gone already. Pay your exit fees and get $ZERO from conference revenues for the next two years as well. Same would be true for any other schools leaving for elsewhere.

And for God's sake, Hello! CUSA presidents, effing fire Judy yesterday!

[FriscoDawg]

No matter what happens…

This is Guice’s legacy at Louisiana Tech.

This is what he should and will be remembered for.

Guice's legacy started in July 2013 with the disastrous AD hire as the first major move of his tenure. Not firing that AD as part of the Summitt scandal was a second major mistake. And things have just been compounded from there.

Time for Guice to announce that he is stepping down June 30 next year so new blood can be brought in.

C-USA needs to do two things:
1) Fire Judy yesterday as has already been posted.
2) Move all awarded C-USA championship events scheduled after January 1 away from schools who are leaving the conference. For next spring that would include moving baseball away from USM.

Shit, I'll turn that midget into something if they quit insulting the non gold lot members.

Screw USM BASEBALL fans. Rude and unappreciative

not gonna miss them, but I’m probably not gonna miss the EllAye Tech Dahgs either

[techman05]

So, the answer to the OP is…….yes

[Bone_afide_Dawg]

Yes! After CUSA’s announcement of being nothing much more than an elevated FCS conference, Guice should resign. He doesn’t have the vision for Tech to be all it can be. Besides that he supports bad hires and terrible contracts. I’m really wondering what executive, business decision making skills he has.
