Dayton, you're exactly right. Me, being one of the PNG fans that got upset when the bashing against my school, played right into the "bashers" hands.....they, the bashers, walked away with the victory. However, like so many, I will defend my school on a public forum.

Get it though your head PNG BROKE NO LAWS!!!!!!!!!!!! They're not going to listen. The media was against PNG because of curiosity of the coaches that applied. And now, that the list is revealed, it's like throwing meat to a hungry pack of wolves. From what I've heard, (and I didn't watch the discussion because it was a waste of time), Klein says a whole lot without saying a dang thing....."typical" polictician. Ok, the list is out, now what are you going to hate on PNG about? I'm sure you will come up with something. The "masters" thing, as so many call it, is required because, for the FINAL time, the position is titled HC/AD......AD is an administrative position and requires a Masters' Degree. PNG>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>HONOR..............PRIDE...............TRADITION !

I agree.......I think Chris Garrett should definitely be in the mix of the finalist.

Didn't watch the discussion last night. I figured, with the exception of Gabe, it would be a TOTAL waste of time. From what I have heard, I was correct in my assumption. PNG>>>>>>>>>>>HONOR.............PRIDE...............TRADITION !

Thanks coop So we have an LCM and 2 PNG guys and then Haliburton who bleeds purple and white, so I don't see a problem. Halliburton "bleeds" purple and white? Since when? Oh, I get it, sarcasm at its best! LOL !

I highly doubt that. If that was the case why would they even interview the five finalist. Why wouldn't they just hire this coach? On top of that, the interviews have never even been made official by PNGISD. That is all message board / blog chatter. I highly doubt PNGISD is interviewing five candidates over the course of today and tomorrow at the direction of some coach who is calling all the shots. WHAT IS SEEING THE LIST GOING TO PROVE? PNGISD is going to hire the best candidate. This round table discussion is not going to amount to anything more than a chance for the media members to ridicule and bash PNGISD. Let's just hope they got ALL their facts straight before they start ripping them. A lot of credibility can be lost quickly airing out dirty laundry that is fabricated and not based in fact. Other than this roundtable discussion being nothing more than a waste of time and the chance to "bash" PNG by the media, I think it will prove one huge point: That is, the media in Southeast Texas has stooped to the lowest of lows in "ripping" a local school district and will lose ALL credibility for future coverage and respect.

I agree with these and I would add Chris Garrett from Duncanville......younger and enthusiastic with a good ideas, excellent TE coach as well, from what I hear.

I think Southeast Texas will be surprised with the new HC/AD at PNG, and I think it will be someone we least expect. The indian spirits are covering The Reservation and I feel nothing but blessings coming PNG's way in the future from our new HC/AD. PNG>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Honor...............Pride...............Tradition.........simply "PRICELESS!"

Forgot, yeah, you're right.

A different Mike Long?

A good list. Got substance in some of the names.

For all you bashers that thought PNG was holding out, for, "you know who", the one applicant you thought we were holding out for, well, you were wrong....now, live in peace, you got what you wanted. Now, give PNG a break....let the healing begin!

Everyone happy? Now, let the "bashing" begin........since, evidently, EVERYONE has a dog in this fight!

Dillusional. We voted for our board, they are the folks we put our trust in. I will wait and let THEM make the decision. All these nonsense postings don't mean a thing. PNG will decide.

Good post, OlGabe. Unfortunately, there are those that don't understand reasoning or your perspective. Some folks are so full of "hate" that it directs their negativity. I have NEVER in my life seen so many people get upset about this. And, over 95% of the people posting the negatives aren't even from PNG. And so, IF and WHEN the list is revealed, what are these folks going to do....let me guess, BASH the applicants, BASH PNG, hurl insults at PNG fans, feel SUPERIOR is some kind of regard, and wait in the wings for even more negativity. I thought southeast texas schools supported each others endeavors...we're all in this together. We want our area of the state to be the best when it comes to support. However, there are people from around the state that are looking at these postings and raising eyebrows because of the way posters from other schools are turning against one of their owns.

: : :

Jerry Jordan ? And........who really cares what he thinks :? It doesn't matter. Waaaay to many haters out there! I guess us folks from PNG are beginning to feel the same way John McCain felt with the "media" in the tank for everyone else! LOL.....mainstream media is a JOKE! Totally !

AGREE!

10 days from the letter received. So, January 31, after they have chosen a new head coach! So; therefore, the point is moot. Lol! So much for the PNG bashers!

Good Post, Cardinal Supporter. Wish everyone had your perspective!

PNG is doing the right thing. All this say that they are holding out for one particular applicant is a bunch of hogwash! PNG will give each applicant a level playing field and choose the right guy. I will be glad when we have a new HC/AD so we can get ready for next year. The new RESERVATION is beautiful, and next year is going to be GREAT! If you get a chance, go by and look at the stadium...that alone will get your blood pumping! I think we all should "lay off" and let the board/committee fulfill what they were set out to do. PNG>>>>>>>>>>>>>>HONOR..........PRIDE.........TRADITION !

I agree, Spider.....this year, the mainstream media has done nothing but reek havoc on folks. They need to let it rest concerning PNG. They can threaten, call names, sway opinions, whatever, but they won't penetrate the Indian fans of PNG. Anything they say or do against PNG will just bounce back in their faces. In the long run, PNG and their new HC/AD will come out the winner, with the media looking like the "fools" they are after pressuring this fiasco.

My prayers are with his family......a great guy!

Greatest post I've seen on here! Media driven opinions......man, just leave PNG alone and let them go through the hiring process! This is getting ridiculous.

This horse has been beat to death! Time to move on! ;D
