Have you seen Louisiana Tech play football this year? If not, you should. They have a terrible defense (no, really, it's bad) but their potent offense more than makes up for it. If you like to watch football games that feature quarterbacks slinging the ball around the field, then there's no one better than LaTech.
There's one big problem for you right now, though. Despite the fact that the Bulldogs finished 9-3 this season and were ranked in the Top 25 in the nation at times, they won't be playing in a bowl game this year. For whatever reason, they were invited to play against Louisiana-Monroe in the AdvoCare V100 Independence Bowl and turned it down. And, last night on Twitter, one of their most notable alumni Karl Malone went on a rant against the university to show his disgust for the way the school handled the invite.
I am Bulldog to the core, I am heart broken and embarrassed that our university would do this to Tech Nation. To our football and staff this
is exactly what is wrong with our university. Now it's time to get former athletes to run our program. I'm 6"9 and not hard to find.
Wouldn't it be nice to hire a person doing it for university, and not somebody doing it for a bigger and better job in their mind?
Whoever made this desicision have the balls to tell the guys why. As one alumni of LaTech I want to know why.
TechNation what I have been saying for a long time,start hiring former tech athletes to get the pride back into The university and athletics
To Bleed tech Blue, you got to be Tech.
A Bird in the hand is worth more than two in the bush.
Shout out to my wife and children, and adoptive children for helping voice my opinion. Lol #followthem
Hmmm…Sounds like someone is petitioning for a job. Does The Mailman secretly want to become…an athletic director?! Guess we'll have to wait and see. But, one thing's for sure: LaTech won't be playing in a bowl this year. And, that sucks for all of us.
