Bryan Maggard Leaves Louisiana

[Turbine]

Grand baby heartstrings, home, more money, less than stellar recent results.....

[ULGrad@Hou]

I just read somewhere he will be making 1.3 million a year and gets to move back to where he spent over 20 years, to where his kids and new grandchild live and to the SEC. So yes, i firmly believe he would leave to be deputy director and basketball adminstrator.

The person he is replacing was making

Sr Asoc Athletic Director

$472,102

(2025) (Girton, Marcia) and she had an additional title as Deputy Director.

That's right, capitalize on it. Women's Beach Volleyball @ Cajun Field with cold flowing natty and use the Swamp's mega audio system, even its' lighting in the background. Surround the VB zone (court/bleachers) with massive palms, just like CF with Oaks, Tigue with Pine. Massive reduction in costs and an actual revenue generating arena, selling season tickets or keep WBB.

Youngsville Sports Complex is already built for NCAA beach volleyball. Easy place to start the program.... if the money was there.

I appreciate the attempt for supplying the link, but both sources have articles that do not say that.

If that were true, that would be a considerable raise, and I wouldn't blame him.

Shouldnt blame him regardless, he is getting closer to his kids and grandkids. Thats worth a paycut IMO.

It might be. When it begins and starts winning, build a Louisiana Beach VB zone outside the Swamp.

Alright, Kolluru. Show us who you are.

[CajunRed]

I know we are trying to improve in football, reestablish basketball, stabilize softball, and keep moving up the hill in baseball… but, wow, can’t wait for beach volleyball.

[Cajunjeaux]

Believe what you want I know what he told me.

Wait. You actually think Athletic Director’s at D-1 programs walk around being complete open books regarding their employment situations with fans?!? Hahaha

He told me it was a better opportunity and wasn't a mutual or force out by UL. Believe what you want. He is getting paid way more,(400Kish to 1.3Mish, that is tripling his salary) around his family and next in line to be the AD. It's a no brainer. BM is a good character person, he has no reason to lie and neither do I. Remember about 6-8 months ago on RP, I told everyone BM would not be at UL when the football season started. They cut his pay and his staff. He grabbed a great opportunity.

Alright, Kolluru. Show us who you are.

I’m afraid he won’t be a big help towards athletics. He has bigger fish to fry for several years before getting athletics back on track.

Disappointed I only rigged a single jig head. Should have maybe done a double rig for the possibility of catching two at a time with some casts.

Keep jigging. There's more out there!!

UL's seasoned head coaches were certainly disappointed to see Dr. Bryan Maggard leave Lafayette after a decade of leading the Ragin' Cajuns as athletic director.
