Still think Pat Knight is most likely going to get the job.

I think that there is a definate prefence to hire a minority.  Even without the preference, I am about as opposed to Knight as I am Abatemarco, maybe equally opposed.
[/quote]It just so happen that the one who fits LU's needs happen to be of color. ;)

I don't care f the new coach is "green" as long as within one to two years the rest of the SLC is green with envy.

Abatemarco absolutely positively NO!!!!  Let someone else take that risk, his track record doesn't justify the chance.  [b]LU needs desperately to get this hire right!!!![/b]
[/quote]

Which means they probably won't!!

[SabineRavine]

Kruger looks to be hired at OU, so Evans has likely just become more "available"

Good Lord!!!!  I won't abandon the football program like Puddin is, but for the love of Pete!!!  Who wants to hire Knight?  Tidwell?  Somebody use their brain her folks.  Knight will not be able to recruit well at Lamar and he runs a slow brand of ball that only a purist will like.  This is not a "sexy" hire or the right hire IMHO.

only if Abate-a-dumbo comes.........

[Lazeek]

Source tonight tells me that job is Knight's.  Knight is also being sought after by Mizzou State.  If Knight delcines they will go after Evans!!!!

Source also tells me that the Indiana Asst. they were referring to 2 days ago was Knight and not Seltzer!!!

[coachacola]

Mizzou State can probably pay more than Lamar so if they want him they can probably get him, but I read somewhere that Mizzou State is after someone else.

[ForeverADog]

Mizzou State is hiring Purdue asistant Paul Lusk I thought.

Just remember who Bob West buddy at LU is.  Might have known ahead of time!!!

[AggiesAreWe]

Was told (at the "Backyard" of all places) that the job is Knight's to have.

Question is, will he take it.

[biglubaby]

I still think that Don Skelton will get the job done and am shocked no one is really mentioning his name like the so called,Knights,Sutton,s Abartemacos, Evanses, Crosses, ...all i can say is wow! ??? ???

[coachacola]

Terry Evans says he's been offered to be Lon Kruger's assistant at OU and the LU job:

[quote]But Evans said he told Kruger to take the job and hire Evans onto his staff, a move which sources said OU officials would endorse.

“I would absolutely love it,” Evans said.

Evans played for Kruger during the 1990 U.S. Olympic Festival and said he mentioned that fact to OU athletic director Joe Castiglione.

But later Friday, Evans said he had been offered the head coaching job at Lamar University and was contemplating it.[/quote]

Which will he choose?

[the sports guy]

I dont want little knight....Big Knight might be a good one.

They should give it to Cross.  If he did a good job everyone would say....I knew it!  If he didnt .... hey we gave him a shot....no hard feelings we knew he was young.

I just cant forget that Lamar won against a knight coached TT team.  Talk about the X and O's of the game?

KNIGHT WILL NOT GET LAMAR JOB........just updated!!!

but your "sources" and your previous quotes???? ::) ::) ::)

[ForeverADog]

So who does your source say it will be this time?

[Lazeek]

Well since reports were out that Knight and Evans have been offered the job, and since I know that Knight will NOT get the job.  It looks to be Evans, but that is if he takes it.

[coachacola]

According to the Beaumont Enterprise Evans doesn't want the job.
