19-81 the past 2 seasons. This is simply inexcusable. Time to get rid of Hooks and find someone that can coach and recruit.  It is so difficult to see which Lamar program is worse. Does anyone have an opinion between football, volleyball, mens basketball, and softball. They are all bad!

I don’t think I have ever seen a Lamar softball team this poor the past 2 seasons. Could possibly be the worst D1 program in the nation theses past 2 seasons. Looks like an 11-37 season which would ma

11-37 and 5-19 that is atrocious 19-80 the past 2 seasons. The only season Hooks had a winning record in her 1st year at Lamar was because she had the majority of Bruder’s recruits still there. Since

I know a perfect person for this job but I don’t know if she would apply for it so I’m no going to mention her name. But, she is a former player at Lamar, she coaches at a prominent high school and has been to the state finals twice in her three year stint and has won one title.

Softball is the worse, close second is mens basketball… but we will see. Changes need to be made and I’m sure with the New AD coming soon they will the changes and let that person do it…. Bring in their people, their program

I don't think any of the other sports had to deal with injuries and covid on the scale that men's basketball did. Just absolutely terrible luck on those fronts. They should bounce back nicely next season if their luck improves.

I thought of this as well although a different person that had played for Lamar.

Maybe with a new AD you feel a little more comfortable because you would be their hire.

Just too much chaos with the whole Lamar athletic department - not to mention each individual program - to want to give up a secure job you know is going well.

Whoever takes over the Lamar program is pretty much back to building a program from scratch.

I would say volleyball was the worst (forever since even a winning season)

Softball next (terrible teams not even competitive since Bruder was fired)

Football consistently horrible and non-competitive

Basketball was decent during Tic Price era - not great - but usually decent but this year was a horrible year.

You didn't ask but

Women's Basketball also mediocre since Harmony left

and of course baseball mostly mediocre seasons under the Davis era.

Lamar softball schedule for 2023 came out. Are they going to be competitive this year or will it be another 10 win season? This is what  year 5 for Coach Hooks. Make or break it imo. Best of luck this year Lady Cards 

Well softball off to a resounding 0-5 start being outscored 33-2 in those five games.

Well I believe the majority of people have discovered that Hooks can’t get the job done. I guess it is a combination of not recruiting well and the entire coaching staff

Maybe they can win 6 or 7 games this season.  
Lamar messed up getting rid of Bruder, Harmony, and Price.  At least their teams competed.

The coach that is still there that has not done anything is Davis

The latest vs UTSA. Lamar blows a 12-7 lead in the bottom of 7th.  How long are they going to continue with Hooks. They are now 12-89 the last 2 seasons and their now 1-8 at the start of this season.  I don’t think you can get much worse than this!

Yes and did you see how they blew it with errors and misplays? Really sad.

They did manage to win two in a row after this and had a 3-0 lead in the third game but lost to fall to 3-10 on the season now. I think those two wins might cost us on our over/under for wins for the season.

Does anyone know if there is an NCAA D1 softball team worse than Lamar. 3-16 now and 21-105 since she has started recruiting  In my opinion they need to find a new coach that can recruit and teach the players are simply do away with softball

Prarie View, Mississippi Valley State, Bethune Cookman for sure.  Maybe Texas A&M Commerce.  No, the list would not be very long.  

I assume you were saying do away with it in jest. If not, what men's program do you suggest LU cut to be Title IX compliant?  Again, I'm quite sure you didn't mean it so much as expressing frustration, but I ask nonetheless.

Hard to believe any programs are worse than ours and we have a bunch of bad programs.

Men's basketball just finished 9-22...11-49 over last two seasons. Dead last in probably the worst conference in the country other than the Northeastern.

Think back when we had SFA and Sam and other teams that were halfway decent but it was unacceptable to finish third or fourth behind them. Now we can't even make a conference tournament that takes 8 out of 10 teams.
