Basketball: UL game ‘nostalgic’Basketball: UL game ‘nostalgic’ Basketball: UL game ‘nostalgic’ Fans feel good to be at Blackham. Bruce Brown Marcus Constantine was young, but he remembers when Louisiana’s Ragin’ Cajuns played basketball in Blackham Coliseum. UL played a regular season game in Blackham for the first time in 20 years Saturday night, falling to Charlotte by a 67-62 score before 3,209 fans in a game moved from the Cajundome while that facility repairs damage from Hurricane Rita. "To me, it feels more like a basketball atmosphere," said Constantine, who was a trainer for UL basketball in the 1990s. "The Dome is nice, but it’s so huge." "It’s nostalgic," Edmiston said. "This feels good being here." Originally published December 4, 2005
