If you were going to fire the most successful Lamar coach since Tubbs and Foster, Brooks is as good as it gets imo to replace Tic. He is well liked and respected and can go out and get some dudes to replace the ones we lost. At least one of those mentioned ITT as a viable alternative would have been disastrous.

They probably won’t but Tech should hire Golding from Abilene. Not a sexy hire but a Beard clone (although a little more affable than Beard). Great up and comer that’s going to make whoever hires him look like a genius.

Same.

He ain’t leaving. Tilman will match whatever Tech can muster. Plus Kellen’s been promised the job whenever Kelvin hangs it up.

Someone take Ainge. Anyone.

I agree this is actually a great hire. Must say I’m pleasantly surprised.

Except that apparently it is. Just not hard for @tvc184to understand.

April 23. After having the virus during the Christmas holidays, I was going to get it as soon as I could. It was a very rough go of it for me.

I don’t think he did either. But if he knew the pulse of that basketball team, he wouldn’t have been surprised. Tic was universally loved by those kids. Which says something about him - he definitely isn’t a sugar coat it, kids gloves coach.

And now Muoka. The cupboard is essentially bare. What a S-show.

The entire MBB team at Lamar University.

We were arguing on this site a year ago whether Montverde would have beaten SFA. Cade and Scottie Barnes will both be top 10 picks. Moses Moody may join them (and will be a lottery pick at a minimum). Oh and 7 footer Mark Williams had 23 & 19 in Duke’s last game of the year against Louisville. Yeah I’m still taking MV.

This one has been hard to shake. I knew him before I knew this board existed. I enjoyed reading stevenash’s posts before I found out stevenash was Stan. When I did it was quite a trip. He loved having discussions on a variety of subjects, politics obviously being one of his favorites. As you all know, I probably disagreed as often as we agreed. But I didn’t feel like he ever thought less of me when we did, and I can promise that was mutual. One thing I appreciated (as I do with some of the others I know here - Hagar, BSW; and some I don’t know personally - LRF, baddog) is that we could disagree and keep it cordial. We could have different opinions and still respect one another...hell even enjoy one another’s company. It’s a shame that is becoming exceedingly rare. I will miss being reading stevenash’s posts on this site. I will miss being able to text him when I have a question I know he will know the answer to. But most of all I will miss that smile of his that he always seemed to wear, a smile that filled his entire face. Continued prayers for his wife, kids, grandkids, and all of his loved ones.

Kopp already entered the portal. If they lose Kasen, Muoka, etc, it’s going to be a train wreck. Especially Kasen. Best recruit Lamar has gotten in a while. Got robbed of Freshman of the year in that conference.

Amen. Prayers for his family and loved ones. Stan was one of a kind.

Been super ugly

Stick to baseball. It’s more your speed.

Certainly not those with low basketball IQs...

This Abilene team may not be done. It’s the best Southland team I’ve seen since that Walkup SFA group.

And the official line is he moved back home because he was homesick. Had nothing to do with not getting the starting PG job over Isa Silva...

He started the school year in California. He transferred back to Kimball in October.

He is no longer with the team. He will be transferring from Sam - not sure whether it will involve basketball or not.

No doubt. I’m glad Morris was able to enroll in October, just in time for the season. We will get to see him up close and personal this weekend in Houston.

That might be the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard involving this great game. And that’s saying something because I’ve been a frequent visitor to this board for years. 😂 He had one kid on his team (Morris) that can compare with Arceneaux and Yates in terms of a “basketball player.”

I will take the 96 Bulls.
