They played Sam to the wire on the road in their only conference game down 3 to 4 starters, with only 7 eligible players, including walk ons.   In the game before that, they were the “healthiest” they have been all year (before the covid outbreak) and lost by 3 at home to a team that had just beaten SFA in Nacogdoches by 13.  They are way better than just looking at a 2-12 record would suggest.

Hang in there LU alums/fans.  AB can recruit and coach.  He demands defense and rebounding.  If you want to play for him, you must defend and rebound the basketball.  That goes for all five kids on the floor.  Guards have to rebound...they can't stand around waiting for a kick-out to run the floor.  Some kids do not want to buy in and do what it takes to play for AB.  Those kids can grab some bench.  AB will weed them out.  He will find the right combination of kids.  In men's college basketball, defense travels and wins games on the road.  Get healthy, build the culture, and AB will win you some games.  I've been following the LU games.  They are close to stacking up some wins.  I'm a firm believer in AB.

    • Really good hire! As I stated previously on this thread, Mike T has been an essential part of WB’s success the last few years & is a student of the game & I have a ton of respect for how he goes about things as a coach. Big on teaching kids how to do things the right way to prepare them for not only basketball but the game of life. He’ll be fine there, my only question is what kind of talent does WB have returning?  Best thing about this situation for Mike T is WB will be 5A for at least the next 2 years, so he should win a lot of games & have some deep playoff runs.
    • So which coaches kid gets the QB job? Trotter or Barrier
    • A Winnie land owner (and others) sued the State of Texas after they built IH-10 a few feet higher in order to help contain storm flooding. Sure enough a hurricane hit and flooded the land. The storm improvements worked!! Unfortunately the state sacrificed several people’s properties in using the interstate highway as a dam.  Richard DeVillier tried to sue Texas under our laws and Constitution and the US Constitution under the Fifth Amendment “taking clause” (eminent domain). After a favorable ruling in the federal district court on the right to sue Texas directly, the Fifth Circuit Court in New Orleans overturned that ruling and said that the DeVlier had no authority to sue Texas directly.  On Tuesday a unanimous US Supreme Court ruled that DeVillier and others had the right to sue Texas directly under Texas law and under the Fifth Amendment of the US Constitution. The case is now sent back down to the lower court. DeVillier and others have not won their lawsuits as the case has not been decided on its merits at a trial. He still has to go to prove his case. What they did win was a unanimous Supreme Court agreeing that he has the right to bring Texas to trial for taking his property with just compensation.
