Guest mffl Posted April 19, 2008 Report Posted April 19, 2008 Actually, Lamar HAD to step up and give Roc a pay raise, or else he would be gone right now. From what I heard, the new Marquette coach offered Roc the head asst. job and a big raise over what he was currently making at LU. So make that 2 jobs (the other at Memphis) that Roc has turned down to stay at Lamar for less money. Don't ever doubt Roc's loyalty to Lamar University. LU had the highest attendance in the conference this past year, and won a share of the conference title. So yeah, Roc deserves to be the highest paid in the conference. If anything, Billy T is probably a little jealous of what Roc has accomplished so quickly at Lamar (1st conference title in 24 yrs). So if Tubbs is just OK with the job Roc has done, then thats an understatement. Actually, it is three schools Coach Roc has said no to when there was a high paying assistant job. 1. Memphis. 2. Texas A&M 3. Marquette. I'm not in the loop right now as I'm having some personal difficulties and would appreciate all your prayers. For sure rim, hope everything works out. PRAYERS SENT!
