Tiger90 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 No high school coach is getting this position and anyone who thinks that is not fully comprehending the entire situation. Lamar is relying on some big time donations from the area. Those donors would not pour millions into this and agree for a half-hearted attempt to start a new program. An inexperienced hs coach won't cut it no matter how successful they were on a Friday night. The ten days should instantly tell folks a lot has already occured behind the scenes. On another note, will Barry still run the 'bone?
Guest roberthollister Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 How about this name for offensive coordinator -Barry Norton. Texas High still? I'm sure he'd come back to the Golden Triangle. Granted, not as head coach but as offensive coordinator. I'd have to say that Craig Stump is probably on the short list. He knows the area, he's been a college coach at Ole' Miss (or Mississippi St.?) and he won't stay in the high school ranks very long. As far as assistants go, how bout' Toby Foreman as WR coach?

If Craig Stump would consider a position as OC that is possible. Head Coach, no way. Toby Foreman as WR coach you bet your ____ . I'd take him in a heart beat. Now, that could be a start to a good offensive coaching staff. Stump OC and Foreman WR coach.
basketballcoach Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 Word has it Haynes is not interested in the job, he is to happy being back HOME......Insiders at lamar say they might give him a call....so who knows, but alot of my coaching buddies tell me that he's one of the best in the state of texas on the offensive side of the ball and might be better than briles or Dodge.
Guest baseball25 Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 i am telling he is that good but it sucks to hear he isnt interested hardin is very lucky to have coach haynes
AggiePastor Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Wonder if Bradley Dale Peveto would be interested in a head coaching job here in SE Texas. He has the recruiting ties, and has major college coaching experience, but just not head coaching experience. He's been at LSU for about 5 years now. Plus having ties to Louisiana prospects would help take some away form McNeese and Ula-la.

Guest DickVitale Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Do I have to think of EVERYTHING around here?? I thought I was only the basketball guru!! :D...Let me get my guy JIMMY JOHNSON out of that Fox NFL studio!! He's a Mid-County boy!! ;D ;D...Let me get him from the ol' speed dial!! ;D ;D... Seriously though, I am awful curious to know who ol Billy boy has in mind...He has to have something up his sleeve...
Alpha Wolf Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 UNLV, Adam Henry has nice a nice little resume there. But would he leave the Raiders to start up a program. The benefit is that he might would like to be closer to home. I dont know what his salary for the Raiders is. Do you think it would be a raise or lower than what he is currently making? Has Louisiana ties which could be good to get some of McNeese's recruits.

We played on the same peewee league, same church, basically I taught him everything he knows.
Guest abovetherim Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 Adam Henry is the guy I was trying to remember a couple of weeks ago. He was a freshman from Beaumont the same time my brother was at McNeese. I'm not sure he is qualified to build a program from scratch but I'd love to hear what he has to say. 4 advantages he has. 1. He is from Beaumont. 2. He played and coached at McNeese (arch rival and FCS power in the SLC) 3. He played in the NFL 4. Has always been a winner
Wildcatter Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 If you view it like the basketball threads then the new coach should be none other than Dan Hooks, hasn't lost a 21-3a district game since he's been there. Of course I am kidding but that is the arguement that keeps being made on the basketball threads about Lamar so I just had to throw that in there. ;D

Not sure he would leave LSU to come to Lamar, but I can guarantee you that he could get some donors. Plus you're right he does recruit this area and the Houston area for LSU. Not sure about him building a program from scratch, but would love to see him come in as the DC, then be the head coach in the future.
