Greetings. Lion fans! After a thrilling come from behind win over the rival Javelinas from Kingsville last week, now it’s time to turn our attention to the Cardinals of William Jewell College. There’s not much to go on, as the Cardinals game was canceled last week at the 7:15 mark of the opening quarter, trailing,…
Well after a harder than anticipated double OT win over the little piggies(of course we new it wouldn’t be that easy…it’s A&M-Kingsville still) the Lions set their eyes on a road trip to Liberty Missouri to face William Jewell. Here are my 5 thoughts on the Lions this week. First Minor thought…the piggies are a…
Lion Volleyball- Huge Congrats to the Lion Volleyball squad who knocked off defending national champion Concordia-St. Paul. The Ladies are now 6-2 on the year heading into a neutral site match up against Southern Arkansas on September 6th. In the past couple of weeks, this team has beaten the number 2, 3, 10, and 16th…
Talk about running on pure adrenaline. Last day was the final day at work for me before I start a new job in a couple of weeks, I had been up since 6 AM and worked till 5, fought Dallas traffic all the way through Greenville to meet up with my Dad and take our…
What a game and a finish. Morning after thoughts up by Mid-Morning. Enjoy this one!
Wow. What a comeback.
Bring us home lucky Lions, bring us home.
Lions are playing poorly. Dumb penalties, stupid mistakes, and poor execution. Lion defense playing hard, but the offense is just head scratchingly bad now. Lions get the ball to start the second half. Offense-Bad Defense-playing well, but tired. They need help. Special teams-gift wrapped the Hogs a score. worse than bad. Oye vey.
Scoreless after one quarter. Hard Play on both ends.

48 hours to go, Lions fans. So close, but yet so far to that time of year….Football. The chance to do something that hasn’t been done in a generation…defend a title. It’s time to take a look at what fueled that run. Defense. The defense appears to be the strength of Colby Carthel’s charges. They…
Greetings, Lions fans, it’s that time again. What the majority of Texans see as something just short of Christmas Day. The opening weekend of football. The dog days of summer are gone, and while the heat remains, the sport of passion, tradition, and pure excitement have returned. From Division 1 all the way down to…
It’s that time of the year again as football season is finally upon us. This will be the lead in for the Lion Wire for each week’s game. What a way to start it off against our old foe…the Little Piggies from Kingsville. First Minor thought…isn’t it great to know that with winning the national…
Hello Wire Fans. It is hard to believe that in has been almost a year since the Lions lofted the national title trophy, but the title defense begins in 5 weeks from today. I am thrilled because Russell McLean will be here for his first full year (he joined during the playoffs) and Billy Minor…
Lions Picked to finish first in LSC. The Lions of TAMUC edged out Midwestern State’s Mustangs by one single vote in the preseason poll at Lone Star Conference Media Day in San Antonio.

Everyone knows our alma mater produces more teachers in the state of Texas than most other institutions. But the roots of the coaching tree from commerce expands throughout the country. I don’t want to go too far back so let’s start with the one who influenced almost all of them either directly or indirectly, the…
To borrow a phrase from the great Blackie Sherrod…..We’re in the dog days of summer right now. The preseason magazines and articles have been read, the upcoming season discussed at length over countless cups of coffee, and there’s 42 days until kickoff. So what to do? What follows will hopefully help pass the time…. This…
Commerce’s Lions are back on top in the realm of College Football, but how much farther can they climb after reaching the top, or more importantly, can they stay there? 45 Years and 7 Days. That was how long it had been since Texas A&M-Commerce had experienced Football supremacy. The Lions are somewhere they have…
Lion Wire Managing Editor Brian Pate takes a stab at 15 preseason questions. 1. Predict the Lions regular season record and how they finish in the LSC. “I am going to the fatalistic one here and say the Lions finish 10-1 in the regular season and one of those losses is in conference to a…
