    BlueOwl reacted to rc2182 in Tic Price (update: Price has been fired, March 21)   
    I am not surprised by the new AD decisions at all, everything he has touched has turned to crap . Whats surprising is, the worst athletic program Lamar has had in the last 20 years or so haven't been touched which is Track and Field . Tic Price was at least trying to recruit local talent, and out of 7 seasons only had 2 losing seasons . This new AD is a looser and has come in and is destroying Lamar entire athletic program right before our eyes.

    Time to scrap all the coaches and the AD. Every program consistently underperforms every year. With the exception of women’s soccer. Since Marco Born has taken over baseball has went 37-72. Basketball is 40-38. Football is 9-12. Volleyball is 16-42. Softball is 60-74. Women’s basketball is 36-34. 
     
    When you have a guy from Memphis running the show what do you expect. Hired a guy from San Diego as the football HC. 
     
    SETX is home to some of the best talent in Texas. How can the home town school continue to fail to get these guys to commit? My guess is the AD and HCs don’t see the value and talent in this area. 
     
    Baseball is atrocious. No reason it should be like that. 37-72 over 3 years!!! 
     
    All Marco Born cares about is raising money and doesn’t care about wins and losses. He needs to go. We need a local guy running the show who will go after the best talent and can compete with bigger schools. I know Lamar isn’t going to compete with A&M, UT, or Tech. But there’s no reason we shouldn’t be competing with La Tech, ULM, UTSA, Rice, etc. 
    Obviously the people in charge don’t have a clue how to get wins and build programs. They are just happy to be there. 

    They simply don’t care.

    poor decision making by HJ there.  Going into the press HJ under minimal pressure gives the ball to a non-ball handler to break the press, leads to a quick turnover.  then a lazy pass on the ensuing inbounds leads to another.  HJ had this game almost in the bag.  Literally make it past midcourt on that first possession and they're likely up 5 or 6 with under a minute left.  instead they're down 2 in the blink of an eye.

    It's my understanding that this was only the 2nd playoff win for BC all time.
    Also, I cannot remember the last time Hardin-Jefferson lost in the 1st round.

    😂😂😂😂 39 points in 3 quarters is low for a good boys varsity team. You could have told me the game ended in the middle of the 3rd quarter and I’d expect more points to be scored.

    Know the facts before you respond.   Coach Davis and HJ book has the score as 35-31.  But scoreboard had it 35-30.  That’s what he was complaining about.

    I love the score being how it is. This is what builds winning programs that are feared year in and year out. These kind of Ls are remembered in the following years. They are already defeated before they step foot in the court. WOS does it in football (beating teams by 50 if they can every year). If you don’t want to get beat by 100 be better. Don’t be soft.

    I agree the wac is not the answer. Ask any of the kids playing and the highlight of their careers is playing the big dogs. Who cares about playing Rio Grand valley, Chicago st or any of the rest that no one has heard of. Go FBS or stay where you are. SFA will jump to the first thing that comes along. They think they can be big hog at the trough with these glorified D2 schools.

    BlueOwl reacted to Lions Pride 2021 in Lamar possible conference change   
    This is dumb. The only reason to leave the Southland is if they are going to play up in FBC. To move to another FCS conference, let alone one that's so far flung out, is going to waste money on a  department that already depends on student fees to keep it afloat. 
    This stinks of the last time Lamar left the Southland, last time it was to become a big time basketball school. 
    I'm glad that Lamar is thinking about it's future. I wish it would do more academically like open a law school or a medical school like Sam Houston state is doing. 
    But let's not go to the WAC. Call up Conference USA. Better still, call up the Sunbelt and remind them you are a founding member. The travel is a lot better, these conferences already have television packages and names people are vaguely familiar with.
