Monte Barrow named new HC/AD at Nederland!

[KF89]

Larry Neumann is behind Barrow & im sure lobbying on his behalf. This is the guy who made Nederland Football & athletics a power to deal with for 23 years with Barrow with him the whole time. I'm sure '75 grad Don Clayton & Simmons are great Katy coaches but i'll take Neumann & Barrows PROVEN Nederland results

Seems there may be another candidate not listed in the foi....stay tuned. And when this is all said and done, and election time rolls around..... take a look and ask around about the candidates for school board. IMO it's time for change.

I have head this exact same thing but was  unable to say anything about this as well. Though I have heard said candidate has decided based on other related issues has removed said persons name. If its true then their is some sexplaining to do

No sir, my statement means I'll take neumanns backing of Barrow & what they both have proven at Nederland over Claytons lobbying of Simmons

Very suspicious how the whole thing was handled...   I believe PNG had around 80-90

NISD didn't do a very good job at advertising the job IMO

[BMTSoulja1]

That means they already know who will get the job.  They put the job on a silver platter for 'someone'.

How did they draw interest from Fla/OH if it was not posted effectively?

[Brubaker]

It is no where near the attractive job some perceive it to be.  Land locked, no growth, limited financial support from the community... 

[NHSBulldogFan]

Its possible they could have family or contacts in the area. I believe someone mentioned earlier where the position had been posted to.

[NHSBulldogFan]

And ill agree about Nederland's lack of facilities compared to others in the area.

All coaches know you never want to be the first guy to follow a Legend and in Nederland, Neumann is a Legend. Barrow is the logical choice to continue the tradition. If he is not successful then you truly open it up and bring in a new voice with a new philosophy. It really is a simple concept, you continue what has been good in Nederland until it ceases to be good.

OH Ok 10-4 I misunderstood.

Nederland is not anywhere near a "attractive" job. It's a good job yeah I'll give to you. But Great? I wouldn't go there. Below average facilities, with poor support to get bonds passed, Good ole boy system still going strong in the school district,  once out of 3 years you will have a great HS player that goes to a major D1 program that everyone hangs there hat on. Other then that Nederland is average. Before Neumann we were nothing. Take his resume away and Nederland is virtually nothing except for the 50s runs with Bum Phillips. If it honesty wasn't for the Bum Phillips Bowl/MCM Nederland wouldn't get any attention at all around the whole state.

If it's home cooking, then we'll end up with something like the Derouen outcome.  In other words -- not good!

That's crazy...  Why don't y'all just spread the word of the opening via social media and hopefully, the right guy hears about it?

Because so and so brother won't have a job anymore in their hometown/ still wearing the blinder glasses/ they aren't drinking the Nederland kool aid or a combination of all 3. Nederland is stuck in the 70s and don't like change and can take it very well.

Barrows is the right choice

If Barrows gets it, the right guy did hear about it. Problem with Nederland is we just can't get the community to support upgrading our city. Putting band aides on stuff gets old. We do have great teachers and coaches, just poor facilities. Hopefully one day the right school board will assemble and support the direction of "new"!!

[NHSBulldogFan]

James, there have been several bonds to upgrade the football facilities over the years and they have all been voted down. Any ideas as to how to get a bond to pass when others have been voted down?
