You know Quinn led the Pirates to a 23-9 record this season, including a 19-1 start....not bad.
Honest Abe Posted June 11, 2011 Report Posted June 11, 2011 Not gonna happen. Why would he leave Nederland? His program is thriving, and he is coaching his own kids. 19-1 looks good on paper, but Vidor played against sub-par competition.[quote name="incognito" post="1017826" timestamp="1307803453"][quote author=tjcfan08 link=topic=84805.msg1017398#msg1017398 date=1307639517][quote author=AggiesAreWe link=topic=84805.msg1017004#msg1017004 date=1307468730][quote author=emptybucket link=topic=84805.msg1016985#msg1016985 date=1307464764]Anyone know about this position?[/quote]It is open.

ForeverADog Posted June 11, 2011 Report Posted June 11, 2011 19-1 start. But finished next to last in district. That ought to tell you something. I like Quinn but they didn't have a good year last year.

AggiesAreWe Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 [quote name="bobbymcgee" post="1022429" timestamp="1309913712"]Anything?[/quote]Heard assistant Larry Sterling is the front runner.
Stang Hoops Posted July 6, 2011 Report Posted July 6, 2011 Maybe 2 returning players. They will be very young. I believe Sterling will be the guy.
texas2step4u Posted July 10, 2011 Report Posted July 10, 2011 Sterling is the guy. Just has to have board approval. One returning starter and a total of 2 lettermen. One of those plays football, so he wont be practicing basketball for some time once football kicks off. It will be a very young, small team. In order for this years team to have any chance at a good record, the staff will have to find a way to motivate kids to work way harder to improve their skills and then learn to play as a team. It wont be easy to do that in Vidor. No community support for basketball. No Little Dribblers to help get the little kids learning fundamentals. Heck, Vidor doesnt even have a rec center or outdoor basketball court any longer. Pretty sad, really.

You think there is someone in Vidor who is passionate about kids and basketball. Implementing a Little Dribblers program is the 1st step to succes, but it will not happen overnight. Nederland began a LD program about 7-8 years ago (I believe?). It wasn't until a few years ago that their program became competitive. Without fundamentals, any team has a steep hill to climb. Sounds like it's gonna be a rough season for the Pirates.

I know my son played in the Ned Red League, but it was not LD. And he graduated in '09. I think Coach English may have been the one that started LD in Nederland.That is very sad to hear.

Honest Abe Posted July 11, 2011 Report Posted July 11, 2011 Oh! Was it only 7-8 years ago? My bad, i'll correct my guestimation.
