NewtonNation Posted November 4, 2012 Report Posted November 4, 2012 No need to lose your cool Hardin01. I think that the guys are saying give Coach Fortune a chance.
ChampionEagles Posted November 4, 2012 Report Posted November 4, 2012 No, I'm saying he don't know what he is talking about. Giving Fortune a chance is a side bar. Especially if he hasn't attended a game since 2008. How does he know anything about what the kids are doing and how the coach is coaching? There is an ax to grind behind the scenes.
mfd814 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Posted November 4, 2012 Or he is mis informed by the community. Just give Fortune a chance. Our kids at Hardin are small, except for a couple of linemen and a couple of receivers. This group of kids will get better next season. I invite you to come to a game, I am at all of them.
tjcfan08 Posted November 4, 2012 Report Posted November 4, 2012 Congrats to the Newton Eagles on the WIN!!! ;D

Guest hardin01 Posted November 5, 2012 Report Posted November 5, 2012 Like I said, I will give Fortune the benefit of the doubt. He himself said he needed 3 years to get the program turned around.My sources are school board members, as to how the team is performing on Friday night. I'll attend when they report back to me that things are turned around.Thank you Newton Nation, lol.
camsdad Posted November 5, 2012 Report Posted November 5, 2012 hardin01, I personally believe that you are hearing stuff from a school board member meaning you are most likely hearing from one person. I along with mfd814 am at all the games. Please come and show your support Friday night in Winnie if possible. I will be on the top row on the 50 yard line. Hope to see you there.

Hold your breath until they get better. Childish. Your probably better off not going to the games, because those kids out there playing their hearts out only need the support of someone that cares about them.
bushpilot Posted November 6, 2012 Report Posted November 6, 2012 I believe Fortune will be successful, I say that because I never saw one kid quit during the game against Newton. They were fighting till the end. I can't even imagine how hard it is to motivate a whole group of kids knowing a machine like Newton was coming to town, knowing what they've done to everybody all year. Give the guy a chance, he understands that he has to rebuild this program and it starts in the junior high. The, "I get paid to win on Friday nights" attitude is gone. Maybe a little support for him instead of hiding on a message board and bad mouthing him will help too.

Guest donniebarnwell Posted November 7, 2012 Report Posted November 7, 2012 Coach Fortune is a great coach and great man...he needs time to get it going..he could use a few more asst coaches as well
Txdragon Posted November 7, 2012 Report Posted November 7, 2012 I don't even think Jerry Jones could screw Newton up.
