I want to see the list myself. But, what law have they broke? Is has not been ten days since the FOI was filed, so lets wait until then to start making these claims. Why is no one bashing PAM? A Brownwood list was posted, but not until a day or two before the hire was made. LC-M posted their's big whoop. Really, why do all you non PN-G fans care?

And by everyone you mean people who have no business worrying about it.

Not important. When you start to ask where I live, that can be taken as a threat........You are not "getting what we are crabbing about." Somehow there are people in the PNG area that think they can do whatever. What one group must do, all must do....Rules folks, rules. I am not thrilled with FOI, but we got to follow the rules. If PNGISD was doing it for the good of all in education, they would have done it for something other than the coaching applicants. Has it been 10 days since the FOI was filed? Is it ten business days? Has a law been broken yet if it has not been 10 days? By the way, what school district do you live in?

WOW. Very thought provoking post. Another lame knock on PN-G. This is getting really old.

baseball25, et all. Quit worrying about issues that do not pertain to you. Worry about Lumberton, Kirbyville, etc. You guys need to come down to earth and realize your constant whiny posts mean absolutely jackcrap. Move on and find a new cause. Your time is up.

Why did these threads get combined when there is no less than seven on the subject pertaining to PN-G?

Just wondering if this might have something to do with PNG now wanting their new AD to have a master's? ( Keeping up with the Jones?) KDOSullivan, you amaze me! You must have a lot of free time to think these things up. PNG requiring a masters has nothing to do with Neumann having his masters. I believe more and more schools are now requiring it because the position has changed from just being a Head Coach to an AD as well. The AD is an administrative postition, thus, the candidate will be required to have his masters in order to meet the requirements. Of course, I feel you will spin this any way you wont, so probably no use in trying to explain it to you. PNG>>>>>>Honor.....Pride......Tradition......"Priceless" Just soooo defensive. :......This will stop, just release the names like the law requires....Then everything will go back to normal.....I am telling you, I think I am right about the master's. It is not a bad thing, just Nederland did it first. Like Warrior touched on, the AD position is ALOT more than drawing the X's and O's. The position is ADMINISTRATIVE, including responsibility for the athletic budget for ALL sports. Also, If I'm not mistaken, ALL the coaches in ALL of the sports offered at the HS level ultimately report to the AD. Not minor resposnibilities by any stretch. Even as competitive as PNG and Nederland are, I really can't believe that PNG is looking for a candidate with a masters degree because "Nederland did it first". I am telling you, it is because Nederland's AD has one. I am convinced of that fact. There are still plenty of ADs without master's. Are you trying to pick up the slack for jackhammer? Surely you don't want to suprass the #1 jackass on this board do you? So we now go to name calling because I ask a question, and I have an opinion? Trust me, in school business, stranger things have happened. It was a joke. No one could ever out do jackhammer in the ignorance department. On the other hand, I completely disagree with you that PN-G is looking for a coach with a master's so they can be like Nederland. Considering every coach at PN-G the last 40 years except Burnett have had Master's, that just does not fly. Where I can see Nederland influencing this is with Neumann's salary. I think a top notch coach will demand the 90,000+ Nuemann makes and PN-G will have to justify that pay by having the person be the AD/HC. If I understand correctly, PN-G (not the state) requires adminstration positions to have Master's. I could be wrong, but that is what I have been told. I think PN-G wants to make a big splash with it's hire. I am sure they feel with the tradition, fan support, and new facilities they can do this. JMHO.

I am not even sure if they posted the job. I have not heard any talk about it since the announcement was made that RT stepped down.

Is there a rule somewhere (besides the FOI) that says a school has to release the list? LC-M chose to release it, maybe to excite their fan base, which in all honesty is weak. PN-G does not need to generate a buzz for their program. All they need to do is make the right hire. Releasing the list does not ensure that will happen. So everyone sit back and relax. It will all be over soon.

How many LC-M applicants are head coaches? Being an assistant looking for a job is a lot different then being a head coach looking. To me, the list does not matter. When they get down to finalist, then I will be interested.

baseball25 knows he is a.... Well nevermind.

Man, I am going to have a hard time hating you still knowing you are a Horns fan. ;D

[Hidden Content] bottom of the page. I saw that, but I am sure that is far from the truth. Just another attempt by the board clown to stir the pot. :

Jackhammer, since you are not from PNG, why does it matter to you anyway? For days now, I see nothing but "HATE" from you for PNG. What gives? Man, give it up......you're not from PNG, its not going to affect you anyway. Enough is enough. > What a crock of crap. I watched the news. The news was reported, that was it. I heard no one singing the praises of LC-M while painting PN-G in a bad light. Your obsession with PN-G has reached stalker type levels. You should see a shrink. I still have not seen him mention one time what school he follows. He is all about PN-G.

No, As long as the coach is a proven winner that can rally the kids and the community, uphold the traditions of PN-G, and teach the kids to become better young men, then I could care less where he is from.

Why? Because our School Board doesn't what a potential candidate to back out because he might get fired if he interviews? It sucks for us who want to know, but I understand and applaud it! It's a morale issue. Ask the exBoston College coach about confidentiallity? If the gov't requires them to release it then they will release it. If candidates remove their name because of the release then PNG has suffered because the media/gov't. and not because of PNG. That's not arrogance folks! And if you think it is then we would NOT want you in PN or Groves! Fixed it for you. ;D

I think if you have coaches requesting anonomity, then you provide it. If the FOI causes the district to release the names, then so be it.

Hey mods, instead of moderating me, how about taking care of these jacka$$e$ that come on here with the sole intent to crap on a thread and cause trouble? You guys let the crap starters say whatever they want which takes every thread off subject and turns it into a pissing match. Keep the threads on subject if you want people to be civil.

Well, bye. :'(

I am curious to see the list. But, if showing the list meant losing a few big name applicants then by all means protect it. The list is really irrelevant right now. What matters is who they hire. The list will have no impact on how many games we win from here on out.

Like I said a month ago, it was December. What the heck does your hang up with the master's have to do with the board not wanting to release the list. Next time, just start your own thread if you need a "look at me" moment. the natives are getting restless. Not restless, just tired of hearing about the dang master's. While it frustrates me, I find it amusing that people that are not even PN-G fans or even live in the district feel the need to have such a passion about OUR coaching search. Their hatred / jealousy just oozes all over this board. Fact is, the next coach at PN-G is more likely than not going to have a master's degree due to PNGISD requiring it. All the bashing in the world is not going to change that.

Apples and oranges comparison. Then why did they make MASTERS REQUIRED at PNG if it wasn't for their highest of standards? It is not a state law. You don't have to have a masters to be an AD. It does not make an AD better because they have a masters. I'm just having a little fun with the PNGers. They are easily taken aback when somebody suggests that they act and speak "holier than thou." But, the MAIN point is you are ruling out a bunch of GREAT COACHES/ADs by making it REQUIRED and that if you like it or not, is a FACT. If it's not REQUIRED than they should change the wording to PREFERRED. Well, thanks for being the guy who looks out for the master-less. You are a true hero. Man, just how many more coaching search injustices would take place if it was not for jackhammer and special ed. TOOL! Glad I could help. I'm a Tool? It takes one to know one. hahahaha! ;D Not a tool. Just a hater!
