again...this is a sports forum..why make it your personal forum ? judge who? you? Who's judging you?..[b]YOU[/b] brought [b]you[/b] into it...we were talking football..not  you. Now, if I may SD got hosed

so, you just called em one day and said you werent coming in?  I doubt it. why you wanna post that and make it personal?

[quote name="UNLV" post="968762" timestamp="1298125318"] [quote author=time2time link=topic=80486.msg968625#msg968625 date=1298087223] UNLV - I hope you're kidding b/c if not life must be tough.  I mean surely your team doesn't win every game all the time. It's okay to be disappointed but really? Seriously, call Gilligan and tell him he should forfeit the remain 53 regular season games. [/quote]Lamar had every advantage over the Akron team, including a week of 70 degrees; 30's in Akron. I'll let the next several games speak for me. There was a time LU would beat Rice, AM, and even Texas. sigh... [/quote] [size=18pt]BILL BATES WAS OUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT![/size]

[quote name="bigred360" post="968749" timestamp="1298117301"] Well, if I have to choose which one I want to win it is the SLC tournament championship because only once has two teams from the SLC made it to regionals the same year. [/quote] i think the should do away with all the tourneys..baseball, bassetball... make the actual championship of the conference mean something win the conference or call it a season...(ok, maybe have a couple at large)

well, thats an apple to oranges analogy by taking job B, are you putting the other company in a bad spot? are you paying company A to get out of the contract? this isnt the first time SD has been hosed down south...think they are ever going to wanna come back? Better hope company B works out for ya....aint getting any references from Ole company A like I said before, I have nothing against playing IW...but SD go hosed

didnt see that coming...what, akrons been practicing in 3' of snow?

[quote name="mffl" post="967543" timestamp="1297914874"] This is a great win, but lets take this one game at a time. I'm not calling for Roc's head because the season is not over yet. However with that being said, [b]a lot[/b] of season is left (take that whichever way you'd like). It seems like every time this team shows some promise, a downfall follows. Lets go beat Corpus Christi now! [/quote] Roc's an idiot and needs to go

gotta go with SD on this one..I'm old school, your word is your word. unlike others, tho, i'm not disgusted with playing IW...just think we should honor our word. y'all do enuf trashing of IW, they just might come over and kick our arse.

Roc is making his march madness run...

[quote name="ForeverADog" post="967033" timestamp="1297868951"] If those players can help the team win, shouldn't he play them? Especially if he is so concerned about winning? [/quote] depends on what they did, i suppose

we might go 1-10, but......... we will not, can not..i won't allow us to lose to [size=10pt]tex st[/size]...I'll break out some puddin black magic...mark it down..LU will beat [size=10pt]tx st[/size] i think Sam is gonna have a very good team...i hate them too.....

[quote name="Scalp'em" post="966417" timestamp="1297790866"] Any predictions on next year win-loss record? I say 7-4, 4-3 in SLC Langston University WIN at South Alabama WIN Incarnate Word WIN at Southeastern La* WIN Northwestern St.* WIN at Texas St. LOSS C. Arkansas* WIN at Sam Houston St.* LOSS Stephen F. Austin* LOSS at Nicholls St.* WIN McNeese St.* LOSS Although, I think we could beat McNeese at home, and possibly pull one out against either Texas State or SHU. [/quote] So bammy and sam will run it down our throats..San Marcos Jr. College sucks..sfa new scheme...we shock mcneese at home... if coleman goes back to LB and if beard is healthy...and if the line blocks....and they stick the  chavis bros on dline..and if the planets all align perfectly 8-3!  ;D cant decide who the 3rd loss is to..

[quote name="epg2793" post="965766" timestamp="1297684751"] Tatum is now a safety [/quote] Louis busted up his knee, woodard said should be back in the fall

i googled something like this...it seems naming a new starting qb in the spring aint real common....maybe Woodard is trying to free up some jerseys from those that, say, end up 4th,5th 6th deep??  Louis? thought he had already moved from qb? no mention of Tatum...he go defense?  saw him on a couple of kickoffs last year.

sly one that coach ole possum rockafart just playing dead!

[quote name="coachacola" post="965305" timestamp="1297539410"] Woodard has always said he was saving a few scholarships for any transfers so I'm sure he wasn't too concerned about being a "FBS counter" the second year.  I doubt Woodard is losing much sleep over not playing one of the best FBS teams in the country on the road this second year.  Hopefully they'll play TCU in a few years when Lamar is transitioning to FBS and has a deeper and more talented team. [/quote] its plain to see..TCU is just plain SKEERT of the Cards! I would like another shot at Rice...

[quote name="bigred360" post="965275" timestamp="1297535413"] Puddin, don't have a heart attack here.  ;D I agree the passing game gave Lamar a chance to score when the running game averaged 2.2 yards per carry. The problem with only passing is if you can't move the ball thru the air than you leave more time on the clock for the other offense. I'm not throwing anyone under the bus. Do you think he would be the only player who might lose their starting position this season? I agree we have a prettty good bunch to choose from. There will be at least 2 and probably 3 on the offensive line. Don't you care about those guys too? I just want Lamar to line up with the best 22 starters we have and cheer them on to have a great season. [/quote] I care about em all...but unlike most of y'all, I think we should have competition for starting jobs..not just give the qb to MR X, rb to MR Y. I think woodard sees it that way also. 

[quote name="bigred360" post="964661" timestamp="1297454543"] Sorry, I want no part of a SLC with ACU or any other DII school moving up. [/quote] You sound like a Techster not wanting to be with lowly Lamar if they move up...whats the difference, Red?  Both schools trying to "go bigger" in athletics?  Why the double standard?

[quote name="bigred360" post="964654" timestamp="1297453511"] Way to stay classy on here BKJ885 as I'm not sure I would do the same if someone was talking about my son. Thing is Puddin, thinks the only way Lamar can win is to chuck it deep. There is no need of a running game or to be balanced offensively. Or to help the defense out by not going three and out every series with all three plays passes.  ::) I do agree with him as there need to be an open competitive for the QB position. But it's going to come down to Johnson or Smith. Sorry Prewitt, Johnson is too athletic and Smith has a better arm. BTW Puddin, Lamar is going to use a little option this year on offense.  8) [/quote] what did i say bad about his kid in that post?  that he weighed 182 instead of 188?  That 180 is a little light for college football option? [u][b]That statement applies to Bevil, Prewitt, Johnson..--[/b][/u]all three... get a grip As for [b]chunking[/b] it deep, thats been my main complaint about whitten..he never works the middle of the field...i dont think he has quick slants in the playbook And yes, passing is the great equalizer between less talented teams and teams with talent.  Why were we fairly successful this year?  sure wasnt the run..yeah, i'd love to see a burton murchison put up 200+ yds..but that takes time..aint gonna happen with a first year program this past season, my 3 passes gave you a chance..your 3 runs netted 3 yds total. you see the pass Prewitt threw into the wind against SD, got LU out of a big hole ..kid's got more arm than you think..24-29 in windy conditions, 1st home start... and you're ready to throw him under the bus but , unlike you and your sources and crystal balls...I have no clue as to who will be the starting qb..all i know is they have a pretty good bunch to choose from.

I don't want to harang Whitten.  We may find out that once the O-line improves and he has more weapons, that the offense will indeed flourish. [/quote] prewitt, bevil and johnson better bulk up they plan on running the option..aint hi school no more...[b]smith's the only one over 180#[/b]..we may need 6 qbs they run em too much!  Tatum is big, but i think his futere as a qb is all but gone if I was dim whitten, I wouldnt have bought a house.......... [/quote] I don't know where you are getting your numbers but Jeremy Johnson does not weigh less than 180. JJ is officially 188lbs., according to him personally. [/quote] simple..I asked him..said 182..so, let me rephrase for you Aggie.."Smith's the only one over 182"---those 2 pounds make ya feel better?

[quote name="UNLV" post="964409" timestamp="1297396682"] The SLC is not a sinking ship. The SLC is more stable than the WAC. If LU leaves, ACU will jump in. That makes for a 10/12 conference. Why does SHSU fear this conference. [/quote] ..I agree with UNLV on this one...I think I'm gonna puke......

and we've played Rice close, UH close,  az st...if it happens it happens----aint the end of the world if it doesnt

unlike Kane, i dont think its ridiculous....but I agree  that it is not crucial to jump right away.  if it happens , it happens, if it don't it don't...

[quote name="Citizen Kane" post="963909" timestamp="1297312094"] Let's keep this ridiculous idea alive...somebody start a Lamar to the WAC website. Why is it so important for LU's success that the football team be an FBS program? Did having a FCS football program weaken the appeal of Appalachian State, Villanova, Montana State, Lehigh, Northern Iowa, Southeast Missouri State, etc. to prospective students and community supporters? We just were able to bring football back to campus. Why is there a need to make a move before success is achieved at the current level? Was bringing football back not a success in itself? Will the current enthusiasm for the program still exist if the program encounters a losing trend? If the school is looking to improve its marketability, why not find a niche that separates itself from other Texas institutions. Make LU a destination because athletics is a powerhouse in its division, with success for all its programs. Have a campus that motivates its students to stay on or around it. Provide a surrounding neighborhood that is safe for students, has a plethora of residential and recreation options for its students and is appealing for commercial business to invest in. I am not against a future move, but I read posts which seem to focus on the idea that being a FBS school is integral to the success of the University. It's not. Let's learn to walk before we run. Let's create a University and Athletic Department that is successful at one level before moving to the next. Let's be grateful we have football back and cherish the opportunity to build a program that will not ever be on the chopping block again.
