Don't think Zach Bass is coaching at Newton as shown in the above listing. Maybe he is at Tarkington.

Who is Zach Bass? Is this an assistant coach?

Newton job has been posted. I think it has to be posted 10 days. W.T's. retirement farewell was today. Rings were presented. A lot of hugs and tears. This Christian man has not given up yet on a miracle recovery, neither have I given up. Keep your prayers coming.

If Newton gets the right head coach( Local coach which is already coaching at Newton) then Newton will make a run. If they get someone from outside, then the Newton coaching program will probably be destroyed. I do not think the SB will allow this to happen. The Newton players have bought into a program and that program needs to continue on. That's what the kids want and will accept.

Several that are close to the Eagles are hoping that his son gets the position. I think only two coaches are leaving with Neece ( a line coach and another young coach) The major lose being Neece. That means we would have to replace out offensive coordinator. It has been an honor and privilege to have to have been associated with W.T.. He has made a better person of all of us who were around him.

I did not miss read your comment Reagan. Newton people would have backed him (Neece) regardless of his record. If Drew gets the job, Newton people will back him regardless of his record. Newton will be down next year but will still be a good football team, but watch out in two years, we have a good crop of kids coming up.

Don't agree with Newton being a no win situation. There is a chip off the old block still at Newton.

Surprised that Neece took the Anahuac job. He told me a few months ago that he did not want a head coaching job. He knew that the Newton Job was probably his if he wanted it. Seems odd that he took a head/AD job at a school which has a losing tradition when he probably could have had the Newton job. Coach Neece is an outstanding person and a really good coach. If the kids will buy into his program, Anahuac will be a better team. Good luck Coach Neece.

His (defensive coordinator) son has been the backbone of the team for several years. His defense has been what has carried the Eagles to back to back state championships. Hate to see Neece leave, he was an important piece of the puzzle (offensive coordinator) .

Brian B does not coach at Newton. Try Jasper.

As far as TB form Newton, You need to stay in school to graduate. People who don't graduate seldom get college scholarship offers. You will have to talk to Paul Harvey to get' the rest of the story.'

It is amazing that when you lose you start talking on how your team would have beat another team in the finals. If you would have been good enough you would still be playing. The fact is you were not good enough to get to that game. You had a good season, now build on that next year.

Hope you are right.

Starting to sound like Daingerfield people. E. Bernard will be a prominent opponent. They have a good defense. Newton will win but not a blow out . Newton 45 E. Bernard 10.

I think their are two teams who play at this stadium. Could it possible be New Caney and Porter.?

I watched the Jasper/WOS game and I was shocked when I looked over to the WO-S side and the visitors side was about 1/4 full. Three earlier loses and the fan base had left them.

purpleeagle pulling for you EC. Knock those stripes off their helmets.

Hotrod, Buses can now travel in the rain, they now have windshield wipers on them. You have to overcome adversity.

Brahmas 34 Newton 14 Now I am really scared.

Well said AM.Rodent. Someone always has to go there. "My daddy can beat your daddy". Newton is good but we are not unbeatable.

Friday 7:30 . This is what I was told after the Daingerfield game. This is the same stadium in Porter that we beat Boling last year in the semi-finals.

Spelling is Bernard not Benard. My bad.
