Rankings from AP Poll

Immediately following the loss in the conference tournament, the university announced that Robert Lee's contract had not been renewed. Lee's overall cumulative record was 80–100 at Louisiana–Lafayette, which would be highlighted by the best single-season record at 15–15 despite the 2004–05 record of 20–11 along with a Sun Belt Tournament championship and an NCAA Tournament appearance, which were all vacated due to academic ineligibility of Orien Greene.
