Lamar Baseball 2023

It didn’t take the Cardinals long to head back home  Another 0-2 conference tournament showing under Davis tenure 

4 errors and poor hitting again

Davis coached teams are now 1-8 in conference tournaments. His coaching record at Lamar is poor also

It is time for Lamar to send Davis and Hooks packing. It should be obvious that they can’t get the job done

Davis sucks, that’s all. Time for new leadership.

FACTS. Was given a chance with no proven head coaching exp. by a terrible AD & it showed. Lamar AD needs to seek out coaches with legit winning resumes like LSU-Eunice head coach.

Almost every parent that’s had a kid play for Lamar since Davis has been there that I’ve talked to has zero good things to say about him. My personal opinion is he misses out on a lot of local talent, but word is out on him now.

Don't believe Lamar will remove Davis with 2 years remaining (I think this is accurate) on his contract.  However, next year could be it.  If Snedeker moves on elsewhere and pitchere with eligibility follow or go other places....next year could be a nightmare and the end of the Davis Era.   

For those that believe pitching was an issue, Snedeker is mentioned in quite a few articles as a candidate for the Mississippi State pitching coach.  If you think we can do better in Beaumont America, we have a difference of opinion.

The information that I have always received is that Davis refuses to let his assistants coach.  The pitching coach may be a good one, but if the head coach tries to do everything himself it doesn’t matter 

Lamar needs to get rid of Davis, even if you have to buy his contract out and please get rid of Hooks also

I agree.

Nichols v. UNO was won by Nicholls. Nicholls now waits to see who they meet on Saturday with a loss available to them but not their opponent.  Quite possibly the best SLC game I personally witnessed this year.  Errorless game with a few nice defensive plays and quality pitching. 

Hopefully, Lamar can be involved in a quality game with that much on the line in the near future.  Will they?  We shall see.

Side note, while McNeese's facility is decent, the best part was taking a leak and not wondering if I'm standing in water or other people's urine.  

Spidersal, you wonder if Lamar cares about baseball...hiring a good plumbing outfit for a few days might be a good start.  While we are all complaining here...Lamar has some of the best facilities in the SLC, well until you step in the biggest seating capacity for a baseball stadium in the conference yet also the most worn baseball stadium one could imagine. The trailer park coaches offices, 1 previously mentioned restroom and the big one behind 1st base might be worse, chain link fence improperly installed in the "lawn chair" sections (this seems nit picky until you take a good look at it), and much more that could be cleaned up, replaced, or put together properly would be nice.  Some on here are wanting Davis removed and whether he should be or not I will leave that for you all.  The facility is becoming an eye sore more and more each season and that alone would cause problems for anyone with recruiting.

Yes, I agree Another quality thought that leads me to believe that Lamar’s athletic office and administration do not care about athletics 

I will hold of judgement as much of the administration is new.  Urgent concern though and it's time for upgrades, proper maintenance, and genuine commitment.

I complained last year about the nasty restrooms, along with the concession stand, which is a 3rd party outfit running out of water (basic necessities for older folks when it’s 95 degrees). If I remember right the stadium was expanded when they brought in the Golden Gators years ago. Personally, they need to revamp the whole thing. Go for a nicer smaller new stadium. I know it cost money, but a nice 3k seat stadium with a cover over stands, new locker rooms, restrooms, and concession stands ran somebody other who’s running it right now would be nice. Also, while I’m on the soapbox 😁 there’s a small ditch in sidewalk as you walk through the front gates that’s taken out Atleast a dozen elderly people in the last couple of years.

    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level. 
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an easy and obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
    • @CIS_org National Security Senior Fellow @BensmanTodd tells Steve Bannon how the U.S. State Department and USAID have been sending American taxpayer funds to religious nonprofits to facilitate mass immigration to our southern border. Bensman says 248 nonprofits are participating in the United Nations’ 2024 agenda to distribute $1.6 billion in cash, transportation, food, and shelter to U.S.-bound immigrants across Mexico and Latin America.
