UL-Lafayette to look for new men's hoops coach
NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
03/09/2010 -
Lafayette, LA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The University of Louisiana-Lafayette has
decided not to retain men's basketball coach Robert Lee, whose contract
expired at the conclusion of this season.
Lee had spent the past 14 seasons with the Ragin' Cajuns, including the last
six as head coach. He was an assistant for eight years before taking over the
top spot before the 2004-05 season.
"This decision is both difficult and painful, because I consider Coach Lee a
man of outstanding character and a valued friend," said UL athletic director
David Walker. "His loyalty to the university and his commitment to the young
men he coaches have never been questioned."
Lee guided the Cajuns to a record of 13-17 this past season, ending with a
76-75 loss to UL-Monroe in the first round of the Sun Belt Tournament. The
school reached the NCAA Tournament in Lee's first season, but he inherited
both academic and NCAA issues that resulted in scholarship losses for the
program.
"The university places a great deal of importance on both the academic success
and the conduct of our student-athletes. Coach Lee has excelled in both of
these critical areas, and we will be forever grateful for the contributions he
made. But a program's success is also measured by wins and losses," added
Walker.
Lee finished with a record of 80-100, but failed to record a winning season
after the 2004-05 squad finished 20-11.

Marlins could start season without No. 2 starter Johnson
JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.
Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.
MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .
''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''
Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.
He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.
''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''
Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.
Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.
With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
