Has Barrow talked Delbert Spell into staying?  Also, has Barrow finished filling out his staff?

Spell is staying

Simmons is gonna be great. Lewis will be a 2-way stud like Colton Kimler was. Mark my words. Leday looked good at QB in limited action. Forney will lead an underrated defense. The secondary should be solid in my opinion. The cupboard is far from bare.

You usually see it like it is jake94 and after reading the names you mentioned, I will have to agree, we seem better in 2017 than what I thought.

Nederland doesnt return much this year but still has a few pieces. I think Simmons will be the focal point of the offense this year as there are question marks at QB, Offensive Line and WR. The Defense will be ok with Forney and Lewis returning. 

Agree about Simmons, I hope he has a break out huge year. I think he can play for Lamar. Kid is hard to bring down for being such a small player.

He won't get more than two years. He has to at least maintain, 6-4 and the playoffs both years will probably allow him to keep the job. But, 4-6 and missing the playoffs two years in a row will probably cost him the job.

Too bad if it happens that way. I can see a 5 -5 record being a great achievement next year.

No one doubts Barrow learned things from Neauman.  But what concerns some is that being a spoke in the wheel is a whole lot different than being in charge of that wheel.  Now, again, nothing personal against Barrow, we are just concerned about putting a 5-A program in the hands of someone with no experience.  Again, my opinion.   PS -- Unless it was a power play by the Superintendent!  Hummm!

Seems fitting, after all Coach Neumann was handed the program without any head coaching experience and we all know how that turned out!!  First two years under Monte will be rough, to me it is because of player depth and impact players are missing. He still is the man for the job!

Be careful, you cant blame the kids.  We have Dodge and Duhon just there waiting to be coached up remember?

Not blaming the kids, always said, give the Nederland coaching staff the athletic talent on some of the Beaumont teams and watch out!! We beat many of those teams through the years with less athletic kids. I'm actually talking about the next two to three years, just seems like there might be a drop in the number of individual players who are game changers. But then again like Knoddy1 said, some of our best teams have come from years when we thought we had nothing coming back. Just making the point a 4 - 6 record doesn't mean you can't lead a program.

Just my opinion. The  talent level might be taking a dip in Nederland the next few years. With that said, wins against losses don't always equal how good a coach or program you have. I just hope people can see that and agree when Nederland goes through a few lean years coming up. Again, my opinion nothing more. Monte is the right man for the job!!

I feel disaster approaching Nederland if this goes down wrong!!! Get ready for the 70's and 80's all over again if it does!! yes I called it, revert back to my post at the end of school year 2018!!

If you think Head football/AD success helps passing a bond you are wrong. If Larry Neumann & his 23 year success can't convince citizens to help pass a bond for new schools & facilities what makes anyone believe an outside guy that has never been to Nederland or a guy who has'nt been apart of Nederland since they graduated going to come in & change the no voters to yes?

don't think that is what we are saying

Barrow is "new?"

"New" as in new schools, press box, stadium, facilities need to become new!

James, there have been several bonds to upgrade the football facilities over the years and they have all been voted down. Any ideas as to how to get a bond to pass when others have been voted down? 

We all hit the streets and push the truth to the city. Vote people on the school board who have the same vision for our cities future and the future of our kids. Don't except those who think the sky is falling and we can't do it! Be a generation to make a difference and stop living off what people in the 50's accomplished. We need to step it up!!

Barrows is the right choice

That's crazy...  Why don't y'all just spread the word of the opening via social media and hopefully, the right guy hears about it?  

If Barrows gets it, the right guy did hear about it. Problem with Nederland is we just can't get the community to support upgrading our city. Putting band aides on stuff gets old. We do have great teachers and coaches, just poor facilities. Hopefully one day the right school board will assemble and support the direction of "new"!!

...they won't hold secret spring practices anymore...  They'll probably hold official spring training now since the old man has retired....

Like I said, don't fix what ain't broke!!

My vote would be for Coach Barrow to get it, give him three years to get his Masters. Why try to fix what isn't broken!! Any other decision would be a setback to Nederland Athletics, not just football. Besides only the current coaching staff knows how to run the secret spring football game without getting busted!! Right BMTSoulja1? ha!!

Not a lot of smack coming from either side. Has a weird feel in the air about the game this year. Everyone knows PNG has the better team, hands down, but there is just something about the game this year that has the PNG faithful a little nervous!!

I think I know why... Ned fans aren't talking trash because we know we are the underdogs. PN-G fans aren't talking trash cause they've lost 6 straight in the series and were favored in at least 3 of those ball games. MCM... anything can happen.

This sums it up!

Seen both teams play, WOS would win our district, they would beat Memorial and PNG, already beat Nederland. They really are that talented and coach the talent well. Memorial is loaded with talent, PNG has many playmakers as well. WOS is simply better this year.

It's crazy to think that, in Nederland's case, all this is happening because of a haircut.

Wrong, you have THE wrong information!!!

Hate to hear that about Perkins. He is a game changer! Hate it for him!!

Obvious Memorial has the

athletes!!!

Is Lange in?

hes the best option, even if he's still hurt. 

And id say that if Leday was eligible also. 

Lange is in. Doing good! Perkins looks to be out. Not sure yet what went wrong with him. 

Really admire the fight in this years dogs!! What happened to Perkins? He has burned their secondary all night. Two pic 6's other than that great game. 

25 minutes ago, biaplayer said:

if you say so, I disagree. I would hate to see the dogs have to forfeit a game to Livingston of all people. He should have sat Leday instead of playing him. Its all good we shall see how the dogs do this Friday, see how this great coaching does. Im betting on the speed of PAM to be deciding factor. good luck to the dogs, but the way you think there across the tracks you don't need it.

When you don't know the facts its called an opinion, everyone has one!!

call it what you want makes no difference to me, looks like your reloader broke, playing kids that aren't even in the Nederland zip code smh, already got 1 loss in district, about to have a second after Friday night, and possibly a third loss if the UIL sees it illegal. Hell the way I see it no district title for the dogs this year, wouldn't exactly call it good coaching this year, I would call it less than average coaching or just plain (DESPERATE). ;-0

Fact is this year is probably some of the best coaching!

I have been watching you abuse my boy James Ware all these years, kinda feel sorry for him but I guess it is a family thing. The 6 in a row four dogs is a good thing I guess, when you get to 19 let me know. It is a rebuilding year for us, I am not sure that the dogs don't make it 7, with that being said I like what we are doing just wish we would solidify our secondary. I think your #6 will give us fits, he looks to be pretty quick.

James Ware is not family, just a good friend. Always like how you use the "rebuilding year excuse" each year. Gives you that out after getting beat. Nederland just reloads each year and learns to win with the hand they get dealt. Called good coaching!!
