Strange doings at McNeese

McNeese State coach Chad Clement resigned from his job Thursday in the midst of an 0-4 start.

The short story sent by the AP didn't say much more than "his heart wasn't in coaching" anymore. Strange, strange, strange.

Clement was coming off a regular-season conference championship and his Cowboys were expected to compete for the SLC title again this season. It's hard, without knowing Clement or his family's situation, to know exactly what caused this.

What we do know is Louisiana baseball, McNeese in particular, lost an up-and-coming coach who had the Cowboys headed in the right direction.
