I like to stay focused on what it will take for LU to be successful, whether we make the move to WAC or stay FCS.  If we move, I trust that Dr. Simmons and his team of Tubbs and Tidwell have prepared a very detailed plan that includes what is would take financially to be successful, not just the minimum that would be needed.  Lets do this right and have a real chance to elevate the program and the University.  This could be huge for LU and Beaumont.  As for our friends at Sam, I wish nothing but the best for them and I wouldn't mind at all if they joined us in a move if we make it.  Would love to see ULL make the move to the WAC as well.  That would be a great addition for LU.

Let's also stop focusing on how much better we are than SHSU. Instead of comparing ourselves to other schools lets just be proud of Lamar for what Lamar is. Basically, if we are going to trash SHSU how does that make us any better than what some of the SHSU fans tend to do from time to time?

Yea, reading some of this stuff gets my blood to the boiling point. Is not like any of them are in the Top 25 in football, basketball or baseball.

Don't know what they are so high and mighty about?

Actually isn't Utah State #25 in the basketball polls?  A Utah State fan was posting here the other day and basically their fan base is upset that they got left behind and didn't get to move up to the MWC.  If the WAC invite doesn't come then we'll feel the same way around here.

What is La. Tech so high and mighty about.  We have a bigger endowment, more students, and similar athletic budget.  I don't get what makes them think they are so good.

      Fake Pandemic Scam Part 2?!

      Will probably be released by the Democrats come September.  Sound familiar?

      Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.

      I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.

      He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up.

      I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success.
