Tech coaches give good report
Although only a modest group were there to hear them, Louisiana Tech fans would have enjoyed the presentations made on Wednesday at the Tech Advancement Group meeting by basketball coaches Kerry Rupp and Chris Long, along with associate athletic director Eric Buskirk.
All three expressed excitement at the ever evolving changes taking place on the Ruston campus.
Although only 29 years old, Buskirk has a wealth of experience in sports marketing and has set forth a plan to bring Tech's athletic funding into the new millennium. Rupp credited his coaching staff with bringing in some recruits that will have Bulldog basketball fans excited. Long said his team would be young but that he's slowly bringing back the type talent that Lady Techsters fans have come to expect.
Football coach Derek Dooley and his assistants won't follow Rupp and Long by appearing at the next TAG event on Oct. 18 at Ralph & Kacoo's, since they'll be preparing to play Boise State at home. But Dave Nitz and Malcolm Butler will give attendees a mid-season football report.

Come on Jimmy. It may have been a modest group but the food was pretty good! And, considering Northwest Louisisana T.A.G. is less than a month old I would say a pretty good group. Thank you for writing about us and we hope to see you again.
