Lamar vs. Sam Houston Series Updates/Cards Swept!!!
KingSnake replied to KFDM COOP's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
[quote name="basketball25" post="998776" timestamp="1303073131"] Can't believe Lamar got swept wouldn't have thought that, looks to me Sam, s la Tex st, and sfa are pretty good ball clubs!!! [/quote] With the pitching injuries, the Cards are going to be lucky to k=make the tourney, and without any hitters.....? 28 strikeouts for the weekend? TROUBLE -
Lamar vs. A&M CC Baseball Series Updates
KingSnake replied to KFDM COOP's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Great pitching performance by Blake Ford. More anemic batting. Not going to win many games with 3 hits. Who pitches tomorrow? -
Lamar vs. A&M CC Baseball Series Updates
KingSnake replied to KFDM COOP's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
If the top of the batting order could buy a hit, it might help a little. These guys look so lost at the plate. 3 hits for the game?? At least there weren't more errors than hits. If Buchanan didn't get a few walks each game, he wouldn't even know where first base was. -
PAT KNIGHT to accept Lamar job!!
KingSnake replied to AggiesAreWe's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
[quote name="basketball25" post="992895" timestamp="1301968314"] Also hearing that tic and cross will be on the staff! [/quote] If i was Cross, I'd think two or three times before accepting an asst. position here. with what he is doing at LSCPA, I'm thinking he'll get better offers. -
Hopefully he bought him lunch and they discussed his team that went to the sweet 16....then a polite thanks, but no thanks. As much as I love what Alvin did at his stay here as point guard, he is not the man for the job.

I'm not very optimistic with this team without it's starting pitching intact. The hitting isn't there to carry them. And the defense is barely average.

[quote name="UNLV" post="992224" timestamp="1301798233"] [quote author=LamarFanatic link=topic=82624.msg992211#msg992211 date=1301796066] O just curious unlv who are you wanting to be the next coach. [/quote] 1. Abatemarco....The best combo recruiter and tactician with a boat load of experience of the bunch...NBA, WNBA, NBA-DL,etc etc.. Yes he screwed up as a young coach, but you shouldn't hold that against him when he is the best of the bunch. He has matured in the last 22 years, dumb business sense to hold a grudge. I can see him bringing in players from the east coast LU could never other-wise get. 2. Tucker...seems like a great tactician but I don't know if he can recruit. [i][u][b]3. Skelton...I think he can at least win at LU, But I don't see sweet 16 from him. Expect few years of building. 4. Cross...same as 3.[/b][/u][/i]Brooks, Price, Knight, Evans...Dumpster. [/quote] Why are you worrying about the Sweet 16, when LU hasn't won anything in forever???

.[quote name="bobbymcgee" post="989782" timestamp="1301424351"] If we had a young team coming back next year I would be all for Cross. But the situation we are in... we have a bunch of seniors that are capable of winning. I'd like a coach with a little more experience to guide this bunch. [/quote] What makes you think Cross can't win with this bunch? He has won everywhere he has been. If he can take LSCPA to the championship series, certainly he can handle this bunch of underacheivers. He built a program at PA that had never won anything, recruited athletes, preached defense and ball movement, and won his first year (their first winning record ever), then won probably the toughest conference in Juco his second year -

Should we start playing Taps now, or Turn Out the Lights? This is terrible news. I thought all along the LU was a middle of the SLC pack team, and with the loss of 2 weekend pitchers, LU may need a ladder to reach 10th place. I'm thinking there won't be any tourney sweep this year. -

Lamar vs TxState Series Updates
KingSnake replied to KingSnake's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
I'm thinking they need a better arm at short. In fridays game, there were 2 or 3 infield hits to short that shoild have been outs, but too weak of an arm at the position. i wonder if Buchanan shouldn't be moved to 2nd. -

It looked tough early on with 4 inning-ending double plays in the first 5 innings, but they hung in and scratched out a nice win. Congrats Cards. Let's see what Sunday brings. -
Cross A Potential Candidate For LU Job
KingSnake replied to KFDM COOP's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
One thing for sure....Cross' teams will certainly play defense. And if he can recruit to downtown Pt Arthur, without dorms, he should certainly be able to recruit to LU with their facilities. In my mind, his youth is a plus. -
Lamar looks feeble in loss of first game of the weekend, losing 7-1, following a less than steller performance against Rice Tuesday. Poor hitting doomed them. Looks like it could be a long weekend. This weekend should confirm that they are at best a middle of the pack team in the SLC again this year. And if Harrington is out for the remainder of the season....well, it doesn't look good.

Simmons is out of the country. I think Tidwell said they plan to narrow it down to 5 or 10 candidates and then bring them on campus at that point. They want to have a decision made by April 7th.

Cross A Potential Candidate For LU Job

He is a WINNER!! Everywhere he has been, he has turned programs around. And his teams play D-E-F-E-N-S-E. Now that would be a switch.
