    Re: Kerry Rupp fired

    I previously posted that I never expected TECH administrators to take this action. I was wrong about this and really surprised that it happened.

    Season 2 may have been the most anticipated season for Bulldawg basketball in 20 years. I'm sorry it didn't work out like we all anticipated. The start of Season 3 was very exciting and we were on the verge of getting new fans. It was fun.

    Best wishes for Coach Rupp and staff in the future.

    I wish Kerry and his staff, particularly Curtis Condie, the best of luck. Kerry was always gracious to me in my dealings with him, and I truly believe Condie worked his butt off for Louisiana Tech. Hopefully, they land of their feet quickly.

    Good luck to Kerry Rupp and Curtis Condie. And fingers crossed for those in charge of finding us a basketball coach who will rebuild us into a program which wins consistently.

    He did and so did Cody Feuger and Dusty May. I didn't get a chance to know the other members of the staff.

    Curtis, Cody, and Dusty all did a great job and worked hard. I know they have good enough connections and they have great reputations. They will be fine. I'm glad they were here in Ruston and I got a chance to meet them. Good luck guys!

    Tim Floyd was the head coach from 1994-98. BVD (Iowa St. 1982) was the school's AD from 2001-05.

    Re: Kerry Rupp fired

    Rupp is super nice guy, he built some excitement around our men's program, but sometimes it just doesn't work out. I wish him nothing but the best in the future. It was time for a change.

    Frankly, I'm surprised that the administration pulled the trigger on this before it got obscenely out of hand (as they've done in the past). I find it uplifting and a sign of their commitment to the success of our sports programs... they are holding the leadership accountable for their W/L record. Hopefully we make a good hire.

    So Karl supports finishing dead last in the WAC? Good to know. If thats what you're about Karl, we can probably do without your support.

    Never met him!

    No problem with Les being on the committee...bright guy that thinks outside the box...he ain't sexy, but he is good.

    Corre is no one's fool.

    BVDV...met him once and that was one too many times. A clueless charlatain who hopes that his cluelessness is not discovered prior to his retirement!

    I read that and was wondering, "How do you really feel?????" :icon_wink:

    Funny I have the same perception of that clown and everyone else wants to give him a 'pass'.... with his "resume'" I hold him at a much higher standard than I did Jim, but seem to be getting less or at the best case -the same.... When is the committee going to be looking for his replacement? Can we say - two for one???? Maybe Tim will come if he can be the AD, too????

    Bruce (along with Dr. Liberatos being on the committee) brought in Sonny Dykes. 99% of Tech fans feel that was a great hire. Bruce also pulled the trigger on Rupp and most fans agreed with that.

    Give him some credit, he is doing the right thing here. I promise they will bring in someone better than our last three or four mens bball hires.
