It seems to me the portal has turned the SLC in to the equivalent of a 4 year JUCO. Sure the big boys lose top players too, but with us it’s a given. I can’t fault the young man for taking what I’m sure was a lucrative offer. Thanks for the quality year you gave us and good luck.

https://www.wholehogsports.com/news/2025/jul/06/lamar-transfer-outfielder-damian-ruiz-commits-to-arkansas-baseball/ This is the world we live in, the world of the transfer portal. I guess we should be happy that we have the type of talent that one of the top programs in the country wants. Hate to lose him but we did get him through the transfer portal (Houston Christian)

Lamar MBB announced the signing of Quinton Sanders from Houston Wheatley. I tend to discount press clipping with "nobody signs bad players" but this guy looks like he could be special. https://lamarcardinals.com/news/2025/6/5/mens-basketball-cardinals-add-scoring-punch-in-quinton-sanders.aspx

The impressive part of that, to me, is that McNeese did that with only 5 home football games. It's 100% campus culture. Revenue be damned (though they'd still make revenue off them with apparel and concession sales), get students into the building creating a home field/court advantage for Big Red. Those of us who are early-Millennials and Gen-X remember what the Montagne was like in the late-80s and early-90s. Make it fun and exciting to be at games for students and the community.
-
Looks like another area that Lamar needs to improve on, especially in the rivalry with McNeese. Sixty thousand more attendance could help with recruiting and NIL potentially.

There was no mention of him during spring practice. Is he really coming back? We've known about the JUCO rule for some time.
-
Yes, for some reason they have given two-year JUCO players an extra year of eligibility, not sure if that rule applies to one-year JUCO players. Nothing against him but I hope one of the other guys beats him out for the starting job.
-
They need better pitching, that's for sure. Their relatively easy schedule made them appear better than they actually were.
-
QB Robert Coleman will be back for another year. Something about a new ruling affecting JUCO transfers.

Cards baseball season is over with a disappointing performance in the conference tournament. Cards lost to AMCC 12-5 in the elimination game.
-
Apparently Lamar doesn't play well in Edinburg. After dropping yesterday's opening game the Cards are down 6-3 in the bottom of the fourth inning making five errors so far on the day in their second game.
-
Looks like the cards poop the bed again !
-
Lamar sweeps HCU to capture 3rd place in the regular season. Bad news is they travel to UTRGV for the first round of the conference tourney and get a fourth straight game against HCU in double elimination play to see if they can get to the championship series.
-
Looking for the sweep today over HCU ! What a comeback by Lamar last night. I turned it off after they gave up lead in the 9th inning. Missed a great finish. Go get #40 today cards !!!!!!
-
Cards play Texas close until the bottom of the eighth. The score was 4-2 at the end of seven and Lamar got a home run from Skinner to close the gap to one, but Lamar pitching ran out of gas in the bottom o the inning giving up five runs to fall by a final of 9-5. Cards will close out the regular season with a three game series at home against HCU beginning Friday at 6 PM. Cards need a sweep to guarantee the fourth seed.
-
Lamar drops game three of the series with SLU and now has ten losses in SLC play. With three conference games remaining the best Lamar can do is fourth place and will need to win at least two of three against HCU and win at least the same number of games in the final series as Northwestern St does in their final series to hold on to fourth place.
-
Cards had the bases loaded in both the first and second innings but could not get a run across and wind up falling 4-0 in the second game of the series with SLU. The loss along with the results of the other games today drops Lamar back into fourth place and with just four conference games remaining very little chance of moving up to second for a host site in the tournament.
-
Well, thats the season. Hooks does some stupid shit
-
Lamar takes game one of the series with SLU 5-0 and now are only one game out in the loss column. Game two is tomorrow at 6 PM.
-
Ladies keep their season alive with a 6-5 win over E TA&M. Evening game between UIW and McNeese postponed due to weather. Will need to see how that affects game time tomorrow.
