HOUMA BAYOU BUCKS

The 'Houma Bayou Bucks' was a team in the National Indoor Football League (NIFL). The Bayou Bucks were officially announced as a team on December 19, 2001. [1] The team's first GM was Travis Carrell [2] and their first head coach was Jack Phillips Jr. [3]
The Bayou Bucks competed in the NIFL from 2002 thru the 2004 seasons, playing their home games at the Houma Terrebonne Civic Center in Houma, Louisiana. The team colors were: Green, Gold, and Blue. After the 2004 NIFL season, Sudo Properties, Inc., parent company of the Bayou Bucks football team, had filed a lawsuit in federal court against the Terrebonne Parish Consolidated Government (TPCG). The suit accuses TPCG of illegal acts spanning a three year period. [4] [5] Following the lawsuit, the franchise folded.
