MED Posted February 25, 2012 Report Posted February 25, 2012 I think that Knight is fool, not real sure that he knows anything about x & o's??? He sure left a mess where he came from, i mean where he was fired from. This group he has now is more talented then the group he had @ Tech, it all starts with the leader coach!!!!

Lamar is and will be much better off with Knight that we were with Rock:HUNTSVILLE, Texas (AP) - In Lamar's first game since coach Pat Knight's blistering comments about his team, Mike James scored 30 points to lead the Cardinals to a 72-49 victory over Sam Houston State on Saturday.Lamar (18-11, 9-5 Southland Conference) shot 63.3 percent (19 of 30) in the second half to break open a contest that was tied 28-28 at the break.James and two other seniors, part of a six-player class that Knight called "the worst group of seniors ... that I've ever been associated with" after a loss against Stephen F. Austin on Wednesday, sparked Lamar. Devon Lamb had 15 points and Anthony Miles added 14 points, eight rebounds and seven assists.Darius Gatson scored 13 points for the Bearkats (12-17, 6-8), who were 8 of 24 (33.3 percent) from the field after halftime, including 0 for 5 from 3-point range.The Cardinals outrebounded Sam Houston State 36-23 and enjoyed a 36-28 scoring advantage in the paint.

When Knight ends his first regular season at Lamar with it's first 20-win season in who knows how long, with essentially the same talent as last year will you be in hiding waiting for another I told you so opportunity ... hopefully so because you won't get many opportunities to bash Knight. This guy is both a leader and a coach and both Lamar and the SETx region are blessed to have him. Let's dream that he can help make Lamar the next Butler or Gonzaga and let's stop thinking so small!

They will all play their last game in their life as soon as this yr is over. And they can all go back to the Gettos that the Rock pulled them from under

shorttexas1 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Posted March 4, 2012 3 in a row makes the rooster crow.... Those kiss needed something to play for or against so those statements in whatever way have worked. Went from sixth place to second and a first round bye.
ForeverADog Posted March 5, 2012 Report Posted March 5, 2012 Actually Lamar is the 3rd seed and there are no byes in the Southland Tournament.

freeze 1914 Posted March 20, 2012 Report Posted March 20, 2012 I listened to him just totally talk about his seniors like they were absolutely nothing. Good thing those kids are strong minded or they would have shut down on him. Some things he said probably was completely true, but some of the things about your team you dont say to the public. That suppose to be handled in the locker room. He sounded like a father that couldnt handle his kids so he was begging for help. They responded well but not all kids are like the ones he had on this years team, which by the way are Roc's and Tic's recruits. From his past coaching jobs he ran two programs into the ground. Hopefully he wont do the same with Lamar. I'm glad they finished off the season the way they did. By them responding well, that makes him look like a great coach, but if they would of shut down people would be asking where is his walking papers.
