I don't know that I am a big fan of turf for baseball/softball, maybe just for the infield. Maybe some of the PNG people can comment on that as far as how it plays.
Turf is the way to go, plays great, safer, hardly no up keep, will get more revenue with tournament organizers wanting to use your field.

Have you been to the baseball field lately? it is not bad. I agree on the softball facilities.
Was there last weekend, Senior Babe Ruth & Coach Green do a great job with the limited resources & funds they have to work with keeping the field nice, but it is far from being a quality save field to play on compared to most 5A programs.

Of course, resigning to retire is a completely plausible explanation.
When there is an official statement from NISD or Monte Barrow saying it is retirement from coaching i will call it that.

The OC was a below average hire. Theriot won’t be back. I bet OF or over to BC as DC..where his kids go.
maybe the new AD will get quality Strength/conditioning program 👀

I'm betting in house but hoping otherwise
With the immediate head coaching success Jeff Joseph has had at PNG, the in house hire at Nederland is out the window. Even NISD Super. & school board can't be that dumb & not follow a similar process PNG isd did.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion, sir, and if that’s how you feel then that’s your right. I’m not trying to be argumentative with you for sure so please don’t read anything I’m posting here as an attempt to show you up at all.
However there are a few facts that would surround that. You are speaking of Chris Theriot. I believe they passed on him years ago when he was Ofield’s defensive coordinator under head coach Blake Morrison. When Morrison left, I think that’s when they brought in Huckaby or something like that. If Theriot is now the defensive coordinator at Nederland , I wouldn’t think that would be what Orangefield needs to continue with success. I believe Nederland’s defense was quite poor this year and they haven’t been the Mecca for success in football in a few years. In fact I don’t think any Nederland coach would have high stock now as a potential AD/HFB candidate.
Being from Orangefield cannot be the only qualification…or maybe it will be..hopefully not. If it’s just about being a former player at Orangefield , why not Derek Peveto from Orangefield who is currently at Vidor coaching. He was a much better athlete than Theriot was and much better than Peevey. Again just basing this off the previous comment you stated about Theriot was a good player from Orangefield. That’s probably debatable in football. Depends on who you ask. I’m sure his coaching friends on here will quickly come to his defense on that, and that’s fine as well. It would appear to me that Theriot has enough on his plate trying to improve his defense. Probably not the best time to give him the key to the city and full command of Orangefield.
Having “some” knowledge of Orangefield , although not an abundant knowledge or as much as others on here, I do believe they will indeed hire someone from Orangefield. It’s just kind of there way on the overall scale. Yes, Huckaby was an outsider. Smalley was from BC, that was close enough so I would think overall they will go with someone the superintendent knows and doesn’t feel challenged by. When you know someone, it tends to make people in charge feel more comfortable. Not the best tactic to take when hiring a coach , but the facts are that pretty much anyone you hire for that job is guaranteed a playoff spot for the next two years as I hear they are staying in that small district. Again, 4 teams go. They will once again be the largest school in that district, and they will make the playoffs.
They have hardworking athletes out there who want to be successful. Hopefully Orangefield will bring in the best candidate and not someone a particular school board member went to school with as the only reason. There are some good assistant coaches out there in this area. One that comes to mind is a guy like Chad Lutcherall at PNG. (Probably missed the spelling on his name). Will see how it plays out.
My post was not meant to go that deep, but the info is welcomed. I am sure Peveto & Luttrull are in the mix also if they applied. Theriot has a wealth of defensive knowledge learning from Larry Neuman, Delbert Spell & Randy Theriot. Speaking of Huckaby, he was my 7th & 8th grade football coach back in the mid 80's very intense, serious & positive dude.

The 2 teams you said almost beat Desoto & wouldve beat Desoto did not beat them, they lost to Desoto. So your hypothetical is gone correct? I will rephrase my statement better to remove any hypo stuff, Desoto as of Saturday is one of the best high school football teams with one of the best coaching staffs in Texas & since Texas is considered the overall best football in America. Any teams in America would have a difficult time beating the 2023 Desoto squad.

I have coached at the Babe Ruth Park the last 4 years & every one loves it. Number of kids playing in Babe Ruth has increased a great deal since the turf was put down also.
