82 5A State Champs Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 That wont be a hard position to fill. Very desireable job.
BMTSoulja1 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 Everything will be ok out there. At one point, we used to change coaches a lot. Yall will find the right guy.
Ball Watcher Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 Sad to see this happen.  How many more years does he have on his contract?  ??? Sounds like disgruntled parents are the only winners here. MB is a fine coach but most of all he is a very good teacher of life lessons  and is the type of roll model kids at this level need as a coach. No matter who the new head coach turns out to be, he will still have the same group of spoiled parents placing blame for their perfect little son's lack of playing skills.  : Face it PNG, until you annex some real football players into your district (over 150 lbs) ... you will not dominate in this area no matter who the parents think the coach should be. Â
dme1111 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 MB will not have a problem finding a new job. He is a GREAT coach and has done a LOT with little talent. PNG, the grass is not always greener on the other side of the fence. Good Luck Mr. Burnett. As a Nederland fan I love it... This means we should easily smoke PNG the next couple of years as they are trying to adjust to a new system.
pngfan1 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 That wont be a hard position to fill. Very desireable job. I agree

I agree the grass is not greener if the make the wrong choice. Nederland can attest to that, they went through of bunch of losers in the 80's and early 90's before they got Neumann.

As much as I hate to admit it they do have a great tradition, spirit, fans, and facilites.

adminbaberuth Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 I was expecting KFDM sports with Mike F. to have this as their lead story during sports, didn't happen. Port Arthur News broke the story around 5 pm. Â Mike F mentioned it at the end of broadcast and said check back for details at 10 pm.

adminbaberuth Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 Does PNG have anyone on the staff who could take over the reins? I would get the best quality applicant, I would first contact Coach Hooks, Coach Nuemann and Coach Barbay and ask them " If you could hire your replacement who would it be". then go from there. Â
77 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 Sounds like he has a job according to the article he is the outdoor atheletic complex coord. sounds like they gave him a great job probably same money and alot less whinning to listen to.
Tiger90 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 What happens now when the PNG faithful are still struggling to cope with the fact the talent may be down a bit over the next several years? Who gets the blame then?
PURPLE 4EVER Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 As PNG grad, I got a real bad feeling abou this whole thing. It might very well get a whole lot worse before it gets better. PNG is getting rid of a very good coach.
bulldawg64 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 i myself thought he was a real good coach, one losing season after a 2nd rd playoff game and bam! i hate to see that.Â
Tomahawk Chop Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 Matt Burnett deserved better. He is a very good football coach.
rollinac Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 Without knowing the talent level or being close enough to the situation to render a real opinion, I'll just leave my observations from seeing PN-G for two years. Â The kids executed the offense very well but it was very predictable and depended on having road graters for lineman and tackle breaking running backs. Â It just looked severly outdated and un-imaginative. Â Defense was in fairly good position on almost every play but continued to try and cover wide recievers with linebackers. Â It didn't seem to me that the talent wasn't there, it seemed that the talent wasn't being put into positions to succeed. Â Sorry to hear that the head coach has stepped down...now it's up to you at PN-G to find the right coach to make it work. Â Good luck and I hope to see you (and your amazing crowds) down the road again soon...hopefully in the playoffs.
TheBoysMom Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 What happens now when the PNG faithful are still struggling to cope with the fact the talent may be down a bit over the next several years? Who gets the blame then? I can't speak for any of the other groups, but the classes of 2011 and 2012 have already proven their mettle. Witness the district championship wins by both the freshman A and B football teams this year. This is the same group of boys who came within 3 wins of competing in the Little League World Series a few years ago, as 12 year olds, so we should be looking good as far as baseball, too. It's a strong group. The Reservation will not lack for talent over the next few years, and in my opinion it's arguable that they lacked talent this year. Don't forget, this group of seniors won the district football championship as freshmen, too. Time will tell.
Gabe Posted November 25, 2008 Report Posted November 25, 2008 Speaking as a PNG grad and proud Indian - I too do not have a good feeling about this one.
