It was a great win for Lumberton at the reservation this year, first win ever against PNG.  But my observations about MB is that he's truly a class act and a great coach and his record speaks for itself.  The PNG fans need to step up and support him.  In Lumberton, we know what bad coaching was when we had Fuller.  Obviously, changes are needed from time to time, but make no mistake, MB is no Fuller.  PNG has a lot of talent coming up and much better days ahead based on your successes in the 8th, 9th, and JV squads.  Considering you were playoff bound last year, don't make a reactive decision based on one bad year.  Keep that experienced coach.  The competition in 20-4A was much stronger this year and also contributed to PNG's poor record.  With that said, an adjustment might need to be made on the coaching staff by MB, maybe just a reassignment somewhere defensively; linebackers or secondary (as an example).  If any changes are made, it should not involve replacing the head coach.  Your program from top to bottom is very good.  Your fans are some of the most loyal fans in the state.  Every team goes through this at one time or another.  From one Lumberton fan's perspective, keep the faith and the coach!

            Dont agree because the seniors this year always had talent and they also won the districe title there freshman year and did highly there junior high years they only became stronger when they moved together. and as far as talent . Burnett wants to say we didnt have talent this year on offense ? Wrong because 7 offensive starters from last years play off season have returned. I honestly dont like the mans coaching methods. honor pride an d tradition is not supos to turn out in a 3-6 season and only to win one district game. but thats what happens when your offensive cordinator wants to call the same play 3 times in a row only geting negative yards ...  Boys lets clean house .. becuase lack of talent is not the case.. Get us some leaders.

It not just 1 bad year its the not making it far into the playoffs and several bad years,I second Long for HC and his son as QB coach, we do have alot of talent coming up and we need to make sure its not wasted like it was this year.

Please bring in Long, what the heck has he done, nothing, now if his son can play qb again then i say bring him in. 

AMEN he has done nothing at Kelley.

You people are crazy if you don't think Mike Long would do a good job.

Gut feeling says they will not cut MB loose since his youngest will be a senior next year and is a varsity cheerleader.  Some board members are too loyal to him and his brother.

Last item on the Board Agenda says

"Discuss Duties and Responsibilities of the High School Head Football Coach".  Doesn't exactly sound ominous, so read into that what you will.

Heck not sure. That's just the word around School.

No positions posted online at LU, but I guess that might not mean much.  If its true, I don't know how anxious some of the NDN players who have been asked to try out for the new team will feel about that.  Depends on the player I guess.
