this transferring and recruiting garbage in HS sports is what needs to stop...taking the fun out of it, in part, if you ask me

Atta way Dogs!!

DESTROYED the Cowboys and most of them were on Quinn’s staff in Atlanta.

I like the big back idea…problem with pollard is they overpaid him…he’s a FA but will likely want and get more than he’s worth and we should pay…for that reason, I’d let him walk. overshown helps, but he’s undersized as well…they need some big, nasty run stuffers at LB and on the interior of that DL big time…they unfortunately need more of those than I think they can solve for in one year, but if McCarthy is truly going to autopsy the losses, that has to be a glaring hole…run defense

They better figure out how to run the ball and conversely, stop the run on D…they haven’t been able to stop the run for years and you simply cannot compete for championships getting the ball crammed down your throat all game long and having the other team impose their physical will against you…this happens to Dallas routinely it’s a microcosm of their overall soft natured culture, if you ask me…all flair and no substance…tons of talent, no real toughness to win and close big games and beat good teams…that starts at the top with what ownership creates and it will never change unless Jerrah makes a significant change in how he runs and builds the team…he got lucky with Jimmy Johnson (he didn’t really know what he was doing and hired a college buddy who happened to be great) and he hired Parcells when he was desperate to get a new stadium and couldn’t get the support coming off of 3 successive 5-11 seasons…these are the only times he has allowed anyone else to have control of “football” and each time, he eventually couldn’t stand it and screwed it up. Jerry knows how to make money and build a brand, but he doesn’t know squat about how to build a winning football culture…worse yet, he thinks that he does and wont give up on the notion that he does…if you can’t tell, I am a Cowboy fan, but way past fed up with the Jones’…I don’t even get that upset when they choke anymore as it has become my expectation…I would be surprised if they actually won anything in the postseason

oldschool, your talking crazy! elite coaches win no matter what, right?😄

Amen...the reality is that it takes both and the "elite" coaches as defined by some on this board will tell you the exact same thing

correct and Vicor had a solid squad that year (went 3 rounds deep themselves, I believe) and Nederland handled them at Vidor...it was a different time and Nederland 2012 team did have to go big school because they were the 2nd largest school in the district to actually make the playoffs....Georgetown, which knocked Nederland out that year, had about a 700 student enrollment advantage over Nederland plus the added edge of GISD adding a 2nd HS that year but allowing seniors to stay with Georgetown if they chose to...they rolled out 70-80 kids for that game, whereas Nederland had about 35 healthy players by that time...the 2 teams who competed for the D2 title that year both had larger enrollments than Nederland and IMO, where beatable for the Dogs...that year along with 2000, were Nederland's best opportunities since 1975 to bring it home...it was just a different format and it is what it is...2012 was a fun season for the Dogs anyway...that squad was strong and had very few weak spots The 2000 team was really good as well...they lost to eventual champ Bay City 6-0 and finished the game with the ball at the 1...BC had barely over 100 yards of offense in the game as Nederland's D was super stout as well...The Dogs missed scoring opportunities in the first half and ultimately BC won and went on the steamroll their next 2 opponents on the way to a state title...that team could easily have been state champs, but it wasn't to be The 2001 team got hot at the right time and made a surprising run to the semis as well, before being outgunned by Smithson Valley, but that was a fun playoff run because it was so unexpected

No they cant

Doesn’t look like they will do it again….agree there…grind the clock

True but comes out throwing now after turnover on downs??

That was a pretty conservative series of calls for png

png out-physical-ing them…period….this is going to get ugly unless Huntsville makes serious adjustments….i see them getting worn down even more in the 2nd half

I’m saying monitor the trend

Don’t overlook the attendance number differential trend between Nederland and png…I am hearing that png turned in 1701 and Nederland 1492…the 2 districts used to be very close and now, you are starting to see a bit of a gap…could pngisd beating NISD to the “new school” punch have anything to do with that? I don’t know, but food for thought

Negativity breeds negativity….those that do nothing but piss and moan, breed more of the same and it achieves absolutely zero except to make the community as a whole look bad, so congrats to all the complainers…what your doing seems to be working for me, I’ll say this, congrats Dogs on a season that was better than the last one….movement in a positive direction is what I hoped for this year and it’s what happened….sometimes things don’t line up perfectly for you, you don’t have the numbers, the best talent, or the health…you deal with adversity…adversity doesn’t build character, it reveals it!! These young men and this staff have persevered through it, despite adversity and frankly a lot of negativity from many in the community….hats off, those who handle it properly will be stronger for it…I hope those who were injured recover quickly, have a great off season, and look forward to a better 2024 season Go Dogs!!

I’m still gonna say this…this team is far better than they were week 0….they still make mistakes, yes, but they are a far cry from what they were to start the year…I like seeing the improvement

Tell you what, dogs played their tails off….defense stepped up big time in second half and absent a couple of facemask penalties and a blocked XP, this game look different still in the race, boys! Back to work on Monday

What happened on PF? Didn’t see anything?

Dang, literally have kept 2 scoring drives alive with face mask penalties that they had stopped…gotta clean that up fellas

FWIW, you said the same about Dayton…if it’s all the same to you, I just as soon we play the dang games…you may end up being correct, but let’s let it play out, just for fun

Keep stacking wins, Dogs….keep building, keep improving, keep battling…like what I’m seeing from these young Dogs

That no quit business will go a long way

Do spiders hibernate? great win dogs when no one thought you would! Another building block…just put pieces together guys…now on to next week..just keep getting better each week

Now we are getting somewhere…spider is an axe grinder with an agenda perhaps…that’s why he gets on here and complains every 15 minutes good win, Dogs…build on that!! The season started last night and now it’s about improvement every week…the competition will get tougher, but control what you can control, (yourselves)and get better each week
