NHSBulldogFan Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 I agree a good thing shouldn't be messed with but the sentiment is that Barrow will not be named AD and I'm willing to bet it has something to do with Barrow not having a Masters degree as others have mentioned its possible that could change next week
KF89 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 Whose sentiment? The few people with a personal grudge against Neumann,Barrow & Nederland Football? Does simmons have a masters?
Knoddy1 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 I thought when the job was posted it said a masters degree was needed or able to acquire one in 2-3 years...

NHSBulldogFan Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 I believe the requirement was masters degree preferred Dont recall seeing anything about able to acquire one in 2-3 years. WOSgrad 1
NHSBulldogFan Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 I don't believe it was settled conclusively that barrow didn't have a masters degree. Can anyone confirm conclusively one way or the other?
KF89 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 Bottom line is the Head Football coach/AD hire should be about whats best for Nederland,Nederland Athletics, the football players & keeping the same solid program going for the next 25 years with Coach Barrow. If its about "good ole boy" ego politics,personal agendas, controlling the athletic budget to get more money for basketball or any other bs then the next 25yrs will be uncertain outanup 1
KF89 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 It said conclusively be able to acquire masters in appropriate amount of time required
KF89 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 Not sure what degrees Simmons Or English have
NHSBulldogFan Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 It's certainly going to be an interesting week ahead
outanup Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 Folks I don't know much but this is fact.... Several board members have made it known...1. They want Neumann out. 2. They want English as AD. Heard it straight from the mouth of 2 board members....and guess what? Here we are. Simmons won't take job without AD imo. Barrow might not either. Let's see what happens!

outanup Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 And FYI... don't believe for a second the board has no influence in the hire. The board hired her (new Sup) over two homegrown, x-coaches- asst sups... why? Cause they knew if one was promoted to Sup it would make it much more difficult to get rid of ole Larry....

Knoddy1 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 Well I'm gonna say this one more time, there are two things that can mess up a football program, 1. Jerry Jones, 2. School Boards JoeBuck111, Tiger33, Englebert and 3 others 6

navydawg31 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Posted February 24, 2017 Simmons does have a masters degree he is also the grandson of of Dudley Metreyeon who the baseball field is named after. NHSBulldogFan 1

Disaster would be they give English the AD and then Barrow and Simmons turn down the HC position without the AD title. Worst of all scenarios and a very real possibility. bulldog81 and outanup 2
