[quote name="bigred360" post="982856" timestamp="1300194095"] Brad Stevens the Head Coach at Bulter who made it to the final four last year was 29 when he took over the duties. He had been an assistant for several years at Bulter but NEVER a head coach at any level of basketball and now he is one of the biggest names in college basketball. [Hidden Content] [/quote] HE WAS AN ASST AT BUTLER...........not a head coach at LSC-PA!!!!!!!  That is why he was given the chance!!!!

One particular applicant stands out to me........would be a great hire for HF and his system would fit what the HF people are looking for!!!

[quote name="bballgod" post="982657" timestamp="1300143473"] You better look real close at who they hire.  You don't want to waste another year.  Before you know it, they will be a junior and sophomore and got nothing out of it.  I still predict they are wearing hawk uniforms in the future and playing in the drum at the state tournament. [/quote] Not gonna happen........HJ is done with talent.  Rebuilding for a few years!!!

[quote name="NickKBTV" post="982670" timestamp="1300145282"] All of you guys are idiots. Whoever the next coach is, you guys will be calling for him to be fired in mid season anyway so it doesn't matter who Lamar brings in. [/quote] You are the one that said he was not leaving........look in the mirror on your statement!!!!

[quote name="NickKBTV" post="982452" timestamp="1300117589"] sorry to burst your bubble....he's staying [/quote] Pretty funny that the public knows more than the pathetic media in this area!!!!! :D :D :D

Mike Deane graduated virtually every player on his LU roster, but nobody praised him for it!!!

Best thing that could have happened to clear out all of the staff.............I just wonder how this will effect some of the players who are suppose to be back next season??

He is looking for a new job!!!! ;D ;D ;D

Two media outlets reported earlier in the day that he was staying........WRONG!!!!!! Been saying it for weeks now!!!! ;) ;) ;) ;D ;D ;D

[quote name="WOSgrad" post="982606" timestamp="1300138418"] Lamar AD Larry Tidwell, "Steve Roccaforte has been relieved of his duties as head men's basketball coach at Lamar." [/quote] AND SETXSPORTS.COM REPORTED IT FIRST!!!!!!!! :D :D :D

I have been waiting 4 years to hear this.........ROC WILL NOT RETURN AS LAMAR MENS BASKETBALL COACH!!!!!!

Not that I am aware of........likely hear about it here at SETXSPORTS.COM first!!!!  But been telling everyone for a week now that it is a done deal!!!!

I will always say it, but there is always a story behind it. ;) ;)

[quote name="bigred360" post="982581" timestamp="1300135501"] Lazeek, I know you have got to be kidding! As you see the big boys don't play around. He was at Oklahoma for five seasons.  Three years ago he had the Sooners in the Elite Eight with a 30-6 record. [/quote] And today he was fired and is available!!!!! ;D ;D Yes, obviously I was kidding and that is why the rolling eyes were posted after it!!! :D :D :D

I heard that Billy Tubbs has already made a call to former Oklahoma coach Jeff Capel who was fired today at OU!!!!! ;) ;) ;) ::) ::) ::)

It is either gonna be a great night or a TERRIBLE night!!!!!  My sources still say he is gone, and one of the sources is a Lamar employee!!!

[quote name="KFDM KERRY COOPER" post="982382" timestamp="1300071600"] ROC will be back 1 more year i bet! [/quote] Wrong........ ;) ;)

[quote name="gdickert" post="981649" timestamp="1299904074"] Mike ... on the refs being sent home ... was that official info from the UIL or a rumor started by Coop on press row? :-) [/quote] :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

[quote name="True Blue" post="981309" timestamp="1299875468"] Yes your right you win some and you lose some. I just fell sorry for those players that are Sr. and that is the way their high school career has to end :( And some will have played the last real game of their lives. [/quote] I agree completely!!!

I have watched the KFDM video footage and if indeed he did not get the shot off it was only a matter of a tenth of a second or two.  Not a FULL SECOND as you indicate.  At that point it is a complete judgment call.  You win some and you lose some.

I will agree on one thing..........it is tough to lose a ball game on a shot at the buzzer.  But what I dont agree with is that several people are blaming the refs for Evadale losing.........if I am not mistaken Evadale led by 8 with 4:35 to play and only scored 3 points in the final 4:35.  It should have never come down to a last second shot.  Not knocking Evadale at all, they were very impressive in their playoff run and should be proud.  Just knocking the people who say that the refs "STOLE" this from the Evadale kids!!! ::) ::) ::)

Not seeing why everyone is on the Matt Cross guys bandwagon.............he is at LAMAR STATE COLLEGE---PORT ARTHUR!!!!  I mean honestly I would rather have ROC than that guy!!!!
