Nederland wins the district. Nederland has something that translates to winning. SPEED.

I hear Nederland's first scrimmage is a three way. Nederland/Lumberton/Newton.

Probably the same reason that Neece went to Anahuac, MONEY. Can't blame him for that.

Burkeville/Wiergate Earnie Holmes, no. 63 Pittsburgh Steelers Steel Curtain.

I think Gunter is the team to beat this year. They return nearly all their players.

Wow, you talk about getting the cart ahead of the horse.

Yes, it was the Gatson Kid. Newton has another man that may play QB (Seastrunk) and he can run and throw. He is a very accurate passer and can run the offense. We also have a big running back moving up.

I understand Newton's outstanding running back has moved. Talking about the running back that will be a sophomore next year.

Thanks Putin, It would have never passed without your collusion. Gladimer, is our fishing trip still on?

The gov. housing in Newton was built years ago. The people left during the hurricane and found jobs and stayed in other towns. Dr. Graham left on his own. Dr. Graham has been at BISD for several years and the school has an high rating. There is not enough kids in school to have a successful football team. Newton is one of the most, if not the most, poorist counties in Texas. Just because a school does not have a good football team does not make it a bad school or a bad community.. If that were the case where would BC stand?

Wow, just read the article put out by setpolitical. They are obviously a subsidiary of CNN.

There numbers have already been at 6 man level. School Board does not want to go 6 man evidently. Don't see the future of Burkeville getting any better. No jobs except logging in the Burkeville area. I don't see that Burkeville on your resume would do anything for a coach looking to climb the ladder. Newton is a dying county. They should write on their highway sign, "Nothing to see here, move on". Don't mean any disrespect to the Burkeville people, they are good people and the school is academically good.

There is also a running back that will be outstanding. If Newton can develop a middle linebacker and QB, they will make a run. Will not have the dept. that we had last year so Newton's run will depend on staying healthy. I look to see a new QB that will be pretty good.

There is a required time for posting, etc...

I say pass the bond. You are falling behind PN-G. SO PASS THAT POND. So It costs you a few dollars more, you probably throw away money on foolish things and think nothing about it. You are a blessed community with good high paying jobs . Let's pass that on to the kids.

I think the Newton ISD site shows the closing on the job to be May 31.

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.
