coachacola Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 The TSUS board of regents meetings are being held now and looking at the agenda here's a few items I found pertaining to Lamar:1. Athletic fee2. Naming of Room 200A in the Setzer Student Center3. Naming of Dorms and Playing Court at Montagne Center4. Award the Doctor of Humane Letters (L.H.D) DegreeDoes anyone have more details on these items? Looks like they've received more sizable donations. Maybe the naming of the playing court is for a new scoreboard? I also wonder if they want to raise the athletic fee to support a move to the WAC?
UNLV Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 TSUS board would need to approval a move for LU to go FBS.I heard a rumor the TSUS will deny SHSU move to FBS.

BIGREDFAN2 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 I agree that the scoreboard needs to be replaced as well as the sound system.I feel the lights along the sidelines need to be more focused onto the court and not so much into the stands. Sitting in the lower side-court, you get a glare from the lights from across the way. Being an amateur photographer, I have noticed that some other arenas Rice, UT, and even Katy, Merrell Center, have better lighting. Most people would not notice, but the photos tell the tell.

bigred360 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 A lot of people may not like it but the court at the Montagne Center will be named Billy Tubbs Court. There is no other individual who has done more for the university from a player, assistant coach, head coach to AD. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_TubbsI hope they grant the request by Lamar. All four are important for various reasons to the university.
Lazeek Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 Only if Tubbs donates the $$$$ for a new scoreboard!!!!! ;D ;D ;D
coachacola Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Posted February 11, 2011 I like the idea of naming the basketball court after Billy Tubbs, but I would like it better if that includes a new scoreboard! :D

bigred360 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 Anyone know how much they are asking for with the athletic fee?
becktobigs Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 A lot of people may not like it but the court at the Montagne Center will be named Billy Tubbs Court. Why would anyone have a problem with that?
bigred360 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Posted February 11, 2011 Just a few unnamed people weren't the biggest BT supporters who frequent this board. I'll leave it at that.
coachacola Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Posted February 11, 2011 These meetings are open to the public so maybe someone who was there can fill us in on the details. Someone at Lamar must know who can share this info with us.

There is no one who did more for Lamar Athletics, especially basketball than he did, period! An honor well deserved!
bigred360 Posted February 14, 2011 Report Posted February 14, 2011 North, I was just speculating about the court being named after Coach Tubbs. I have no inside knowledge of this being factual. Sorry if I miss lead ya. It would have been better to say the court "should" be named after Coach Tubbs.
