They ran a spread offense for football and they were all white with no one running under a 4.8 with a QB that wasn't successful throwing the ball. Hence, a spread offense doesn't fit that team which is why Lumberton never won. Lamar needs a coach that can translate an offense to the style of players he has. [b]Cross[/b].

coachacola Posted April 1, 2011 Report Posted April 1, 2011 Just hire Evans as HC and Cross as his assistant. Evans will head to OU in 4 or 5 years and Cross will take over. The program will be set for about 8-10 years.
