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

Whose sentiment? The few people with a personal grudge against Neumann,Barrow & Nederland Football? Does simmons have a masters?

I thought when the job was posted it said a masters degree was needed or able to acquire one in 2-3 years...

It was

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

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!

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....

Why do you think simmons will be picked over Barrow?

I don't think he will be , I think its been set up all long for English to  get AD and Barrow HC ... JMO

This is very true and i agree that a good AD should be able to balance all the sports, but when was the last time during the regular season  you saw 7000+ attend a basketball, volleyball,baseball etc....game. Football is the money maker and this is TEXAS.

 

Best reason yet, " this is Texas "

lmao idiotic

The board did not want Larry gone. He left on his own personal terms.

I feel disaster approaching Nederland if this goes down wrong!!! Get ready for the 70's and 80's all over again if it does!! yes I called it, revert back to my post at the end of school year 2018!!

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.
