This will probably not happen anytime soon but here goes....

1.  Switch the Home side with Visitor side and have the sun at our backs.
2.  Improve the Pressbox and BATHROOM situation.
3.  Better lighting under and around the stands, I personally saw several elderly people fall because they couldn't see the walkways under the stands.
4.  IMPROVE the parking!!!!!!
5.  I feel like I am wasting my time so I'm not mentioning anything else.  ;D

You pretty much covered it, although I don't know about switching sides.  If turf is put down they could use some or all of the field next to the stadium for parking.

How about building a new stadium next to the actual high school. Nederland would probably spend just as much money with all of the renovations as it would if they started from scratch. They deserve a nice stadium on campus...course they kinda deserve a new campus also!  ;D

I think that has been discussed.  There would have to be improvements made to 18th st and Canal to handle the traffic though.

Lumberton's visitors side is much improved since they moved the visitors to the old home side last season...it was very nice so, if you haven't been there since that change, you will be pleasantly surprised
[/quote]i liked it, other than the extremely hot peppers at the concession stand i was pleased, just get a turf field now and scoreboard.  8)

Jasper NEEDS NEW STADIUM LIKE FOREVER AGO!!!! Maybe some deep runs in the playoffs will help.
[/quote]

The great runs we had between 2001 - 2005 meant nothing. When they had the chance and construction prices were on the decline, it was voted down. Construction prices are going back up and I don't see sentiment changing. I just hope no one gets hurt.

    • That should tell everyone something pretty clearly. Does anyone really think BH is recruiting elementary kids, to get them to transfer in Jr. high? Seriously? Here is the "dirty little secret" about BH: Most people move to the district for a quality living environment to raise their young family, and benefit from the outstanding acedemics at BH. Even If all athlectics suddenly disappeared from BH, people would still want their kids in the district. If thats not enough to convince anyone, and BH really was determined to recruit, first step would be to have open enrollemnt. It is closed.        Yes, I get it, no one ever wants to give BH the benefit of the doubt on anything. Some of the accusations are beyond ridiculous though. This paranoia the BH critics are afflicted with is not just sad, its flat out laughable.     
    • Opting is always an option. Are they considering any BC assistants? Highly qualified after that season they put up. 
    • Be that as it may, only time will tell. Hide and watch. Don’t be surprised if the next HC hire uses his own recipe. That happens more than not historically. I am not arguing the point that Hooks & CT had a winning combination that could’ve been carried over. I’m saying that finding someone to do that is not going to be as easy as one might think. Tell me again why Saban’s replacement, who even has Saban’s assistance if he wants it, just lost another game to an unranked team and has taken the Tide out of playoff contention? Why wouldn’t he just follow the success of possibly the greatest college football coach ever lived? 
    • We've acknowledged having 2 HOF coaches hasn't been like most other schools. So why everyone jumps to the conclusion it wouldn't work here is beyond my comprehension. I see it carry over with these other hires. Gilmer, Aledo, North Shore, Austin Westlake. Next man up that continues the system in place has instant success. Matter fact there was 2 rookie HC that won the state championship the same year we handed over the keys. Same book. Same recipe. Better ingredients.
