BLUEDOVE3 Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 [quote name="epg2793" post="994814" timestamp="1302307014"]I know there are alot of people who just want to be negative on here but I am very happy and excited about the hire. When I heard the candidates he was not on the top of my list, however, after hearing him talk and looking further in to what he did I think it was the perfect hire. With all the people he knows we will be able to attract better recruits and get more quality games. I look forward to seeing what he can do.[/quote]He got you also ;) Seriously, I liked the way he said things and I like the swagger he carries with him. Now he's got to be able to coach and make his players (who nobody else wants ;) believe they can play and win. I wish him well. And lets be honest about this, his name is what is getting people excited.
coachacola Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 If Pat Knight can get Lamar in the SLC tourney every year it'll be a bring improvement! But Lamar's my team so even if they suck again for the next 5 years I'll hang in here and get excited when the next coach is hired.
Silsbee92 Posted April 10, 2011 Report Posted April 10, 2011 In listening to the opinionated, here is a phrase my father used to tell me... I am sureit was told to him at some point in his impressively productive life."If you want to hear god laugh then tell him about your plans."Making the difference in young mens lives is what the goal should be.Winning is just one of the rewards in character development.And, unfortunately it is the only one people remember.Good Luck Coach Knight.

Graduate all your players and consistently have a losing season and see what happens. Like I am reminded so often from certain basketball circles,"Its a business." I may not agree with it all, but its the reality of it all.
