Great for them!  And WE can beat Louisiana College...whoopity doo!!!

(In case you haven't noticed, I have grown tired of our constant losing.  It's sickening.  We continue to be awful while schools with what I consider to have MUCH lesser programs continue to excel:  SHSU, SFA, and NWSU (the past few years).  When will we ever get a good coach again?????  Will Tubbs please go after the Marlin or Kaspar or McConathy???  Please???????????????????

Ok, ok, I won't throw in the towel just yet on Roc but I'm not impressed thus far.

It was a great win for SFA but it's not like OU is a Top 20 program at this point. Congratulations on beating a Big XII school though. Anytime a SLC team can do this, it will make news!

Kaspar is not that good of coach. Trying to get McConathy or Marlin would make no sense for them... it would be lateral move to a school who hasn't had as much success as their current programs they have built.

First, I'm a Coach Roc supporter. That doesn't mean I agree with everything the man says or does. That said, remember like everything else its about making the "most" money. Coach Roc makes the most in the SLC among head coaches by far. A couple of the above mentioned coaches I make more than.

I agree it would be a lateral move but the argument could be made that they would make a lot more money at Lamar, better facilities and more fan support.

It wouldn't be the first time a coach in the same conference jumped ship to Lamar. Do you remember Mike Newell? He coached at Arkansas-Little Rock who at the time was in the same conference as Lamar. Took them to a couple NCAA touraments and left for Lamar. It ended up bad for both parties but it's been done before.

Yeah i'm good with coach roc right now.. im sure hes learning some things from this slide we had.

Come see me at the next game, there is something I think may interest you.

Are you serious??  You think it would be a lateral move for one of them.  Have you ever been to one of their games?  Have you ever seen their facilities?  It may be a lateral move in the sense that our community has some to expect the LU basketball team to be awful but I don't think Simmons and Tubbs have come to accept that.  And, I would imagine we pay much more than those schools pay their coaches.

Also, in regards to Kaspar, have you ever been to a LU vs SFA game?  He schools our coaches every time!

That must be why SFA has 3 wins against us in the last 9 games.

You're the one I'm referring to. I have a document with figures I think may blow you away. I'm not posting this information because it isn't public knowledge and I'd think your grandfather would know about this anyway. If he doesn't, I'm very surprised.

Where do you get your stats:

2001/2002:  LU 57, SFA 56      SFA 65 LU 62

2002-2003:  SFA 77  LU 73    SFA 74 - LU 62

2003-2004:  LU 63  SFA 60

2004-2005:  SFA 70  LU 60

2005-2006    LU 65  SFA 70  SFA 72  LU 54

2006-2007:  SFA 73 LU 72

SO, IN THE LAST 9 GAMES SFA HAS WON 6 AND WE'VE WON 3.  LOOKS LIKE YOU GOT YOUR STATS BACKWARDS!  ALSO KASPAR HAS THE 19TH BEST WINNING % AMONG D-1 COACHES WITH AT LEAST 5 YRS EXPERIENCE.  HIS CAREER RECORD IS: 

Danny Kaspar 327-142!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  THAT IS DAMN GOOD!!!!!!!

FINALLY, VISIT SFA'S WEBSITE AND YOU'LL WITNESS A PROGRAM HEADING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION OF OURS.  (FOR THE RECORD...I HATE SFA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

He also has ties to the Lamar basketball program as he was once an assistant under Billy Tubbs.

I dislike SFA probably more than I dislike SHSU and anyone who knows me knows I can't stand the "better than you" attitude of some of their alumni. Because they play FCS football and have one SLC conference championship they know all there is to know about football and Lamar fan's, students, administration, alumni and supports don't know a thing about college football because Lamar hasn't fielded a team in 20 plus years.

I hate to tell them Lamar is still second all-time in conference championships in the SLC and they only have one.

For all my rambling, SHSU and SFA both have good roundball coaches in Kasper and Marlin. I'm just not ready to jump off the Coach Roc bandwagon after 1.5 years. Both Marlin and Kasper have been HC's for several years.

Believe me after Kasper's first year at SFA there were some fan's who wanted his head. He wasn't the most popular man in town!

Actually we're both wrong according to kenpom.com:

2001/2002: Lamar 57, Stephen F. Austin 56,  Lamar 65,  Stephen F. Austin 62, Lamar 53, Stephen F. Austin 36 (LU sweep)

2002/2003: Stephen F. Austin 74, Lamar 62, Stephen F. Austin 77, Lamar 73 (SFA sweep)

2003/2004: Lamar 63, Stephen F. Austin 60 (LU win)

2004/2005: Stephen F. Austin 70, Lamar 60 (SFA win)

2005/2006: Lamar 70, Stephen F. Austin 65, Stephen F. Austin 72, Lamar 54 (split)

2006/2007: Stephen F. Austin 73, Lamar 72 (SFA OT win)

10 games, 5 wins apiece.  And how many post-season games has SFA played since Kasper's been there?  For me, that's what counts.

I know we're all tired of LU losing.  But I've been following LU since the early 80s and I'm going to keep following LU until I'm dead.  If that means another 20 years of busted dreams, then so be it.
