Too many changes to even try to call.Nobody knows what to expect from the teams with new coaches. And for those of us with new coaches, that could be a good thing.

The future's so BRIGHT. 8)

I would rather them start two a days early. But this being Faircloth's first year he may opt for spring training.I heard we will be scrimmaging Odessa Permiam in Jerry's World in 2010.
just kidding ;D .......are we having spring ball this year?
-
Doug Ethridge, Jeff Bergeron, Ted Brack, Dustin Long.

There are some pretty intriguing names on that list....
Graham @ Tulsa- Comes from a good college program with an explosive offense.
Foreman @ WOS- Great coach from what I hear. Shocked that he even applied.
Malone @ Marlin- Marlin's a strong program.
Johnson @ Newton- Isn't he next in line behind Barbay?
Rusty Nail @ Mart- Just love the name.
I think Bickham at John Tyler could be one of the guys Brooks takes a really long look at because of his time as HC there.
It never ceases to amaze me how many guys always put their names in the hat when Jasper opens up. It must still be a great job...
It is a real good job, with some pretty impressive names on the list. Good Luck to ya'll.

I must say I would have never dreamed of him walking in and cleaning house. This could be a good thing for our kids. Although a bad thing for our former coaches.
It is change that will be good for the kids and school district in the long run. Change is not easy but is necessary to stay competitive in any business.

My understanding is that it has to posted no matter what. He may already have in mind who he wants, but it has to be posted for any and all to apply.
I do believe that is probably correct, happens like this in most companies as well.

I like what i'm seeing.

So I get the argument that we don't know how effective he will be as a HC because he has never been a HC, but the argument we as PNG fans are making is that if you are going to hire a lifetime assistant coach to be your HC (which happens everyday and has happened in every HC's career) and you are going to Gamble that he can be a good HC, you need to look at the positives. This guy is loaded with positives as an assistant coach. From The great storied programs he has coached and played at, to the great coaches he has learned from, to the numbers (and wins) that his systems have helped to produced. You gotta admit that amongst HS assistants his resume is very impressive. Time will tell if it translates, but the folks in PN and G are very happy with the choice based on the facts.
Also another note about hiring HC's with previous experience being less of a gamble, how about when Permian hired the guy from Sealy who had won several state titles, including one the year before he took the Permian job, and he ruined that program for several years. How about LaMarque hiring this guy from Dallas last year. HC with experience. Look how down they are. It's a gamble no matter who you pick because it is different!
Remember the most successful HC in our local 4A district the past few years have held only one HC job. Neuman-Nederland, Creuder-Lumberton, Stowers-Central, Has Stewart at Dayton ever been a HC anywhere else?.
Very well said.

PN-G got the right Coach!!! Trust me.
No doubt Coop I agree. Things are looking good on the Reservation.

His resume shows nothing about succeeding as a HC. Let's don't carried away. He's going to have to prove himself. He might. But then again...
Well, it's a crap shot, for sure. I'm still amazed that this new coach @ PN-G is supposedly the answer when he's being asked to do something he's never done before. Not that he can't, just that he hasn't. DeRouen at Ned. was a good assistant but didn't have much success being a HC. My only contention has been: to get the most for ones tax dollars, stick with a known commodity. But, if the tax payers are willing to get involved in a crap shoot, that's OK also. I'm all about people's freedom to succeed as well as fail.
Point being Neuman as with all HC's was an assitant before he became a HC.
When you look at the resume he was the best candidate for the tax payers money. This guy is going to be good for us.
Then tell me who on the LIST of candidates would have been better. We got a guy who led the best offense in his region. In his three years as offensive coordinator and QB coach he had three different QB's that broke the records of the one before.

Ya a passing attack is the most logical but i have seen a small line not be able to give the QB any time to throw
You could run some type of spread out of the shotgun, or if you going under center you would have to use a three step drop with quick passes.
But, a small line doesn't mean you can't run. Good blocking schemes with a lot of misdirection would work.How about some misdirection out of the Notre Dame Box ?

This sucks, a 6 team district with 4 going to the playoffs, what the heck
Making the playoffs doesn't mean as much as it used to, its watered down. I liked it when they had two teams. I sure hope we wouldn't have 4 out of 6.
-
BC
I like BC also.
-
I think BC definitely has a chance to make the playoffs.
As far as the first playoff game at the reservation, lots of possibilities: WOS, BC, Kirbyville, Newton, Anahuac.
-
With the coaching changes who knows, a betting man would stay away from this one.
-
I am not sure who will be playing the first playoff game there, but it won't be the INDIANS!!!! GO RAIDERS.
Home games are rare regardless. Fork up the money and we MIGHT let Lumberton. They sure wanted to use it last year to practice on turf.
-
Show me the money ...It will probably be a 3A game.

Faircloth has no HC experience yet, but he has learned from the best.
1. Played for Brownwood (home of the 2nd all time winningest coach in Texas HS Football)
2. Coached under Ron Schroeder at Austin Westlake (Schroeder went 187-27 and won a couple of 5A State Titles at Westlake of which Faircloth was on staff)
3. Coached under Randy Allen at Highland Park (Allen went 106-11 and won a state title in 4A with Faircloth on staff)
4. Coached under Allman at Permian (Allman has turned Permian back into a west Texas power and top ten team)
I'd say he had to learn a few pretty good things about running a program and it looks like he has some pretty good coaches to call on if he has questions!
I totally agree. Coach Faircloth has the expertise to offer advice at his finger tips if he needs it.
They hired the right guy no matter what anyone says. I think any school in our area that is in the same situation of hiring would love to have him. But, we got him.
-
I think we should pause a moment and tell the PNG school board and admin that the job they did was commendable. Even with the negativity surrounding the masters requirment and the name release I think you guys did a great job finding the right coach for the job. Thank you from an INDIAN FAN
Amen, ditto. You guys did the right thing.

All the coaches leaving is a compliment to Coach Hooks.Thats the hard thing about a good coach like Hooks. A good coach always tries to but the best supporting cast he can around him and they get noticed and deservingly move on. Also a good learning oppurtunity for working under coaches Like Coach Hooks. Working for any coach of his level is a stepping stone.

Talent have never been an issue at Ozen. You have to mold that talent in a cohesive team effort. This have not been done since the last good Ozen team in 2004, Clayton's first year. Get the right Coach and/or Coaching staff in place, Ozen Football will be right were it have always expected to be!
I agree. Good post.
-
I think LU is bringing in some decent talent. Good job guys
They seem to be doing a better job of getting some local players. They did not do this before. Maybe this will help put some people in the stands.
What do you think Faircloth will do for the PNG football Program ?

One thing for sure that his hiring did immediately was change the attitude of the kids and fans. Everyone seems to be excited and everything I hear from the kids is good also.
