NICE! ;D

Hadn't heard that one, Coop!

;D

I agree with pngfan1, I dont think Neumann will be able to go back to "years" past to prepare for Faircloth and what he is doing with PNG this year. It's going to be a GREAT MCM, and I can't wait! Added to the fact that it will be played at The Reservation, I'm even more excited! The new field, scoredboard, etc are totally awesome! Again, best of luck to Nederland, except that one week when I hope the Indians will RULE!

I wouldn't underestimate Coach Faircloth by any means, but its a good thing that you are thinking that way, Penny! And I agree, MCM will be one of the BEST this year and playing at the new Reservation is going to be GREAT! Best of luck to the Dawgs this year!

Whoever it is, I want to wish LCM the best of luck this year!

I agree. This would be a really good game. Would have to play at The Reservation because of all the fans that would be there ;D!

WOW!!!!!! ;D ;D ;D I LIKE! I LIKE!

Quote from a Permian faithful in regards to Coach Faircloth. I would say the "honeymoon" is gonna last for a while!!!! Thanks guys. Faircloth is very meticulous and spends inordinate amounts of time game planning. You will be the most and best prepared team in your district each week. He is a master at in game adjustments. Sometimes you will wonder what he's doing and then BAM, you'll find he's just set up the other guys and left you drop jawed along with the guys on the other side. You'll see dozens and dozens of formations when the kids learn them all. Every play in the playbook can be run from any of the formations making scouting by your future opponents difficult at best. The formations he uses one week may not be used at all the following week. He is a master at taking what a defense give him and exploiting their weaknesses. He'll run it down their throats if they give him that or he may pass 50 times in a game if they give him that. We were always VERY balanced. The offense made the last three QB's at Permian school record setters along with providing us the 1st 2000+ yard back in a long time. It's a no huddle most of the time, with the signals given to the QB from the sideline. That alone gives you several more plays per game. More kids get to play because there are personnel packages for each formation and several are used during the game. You guys are gonna like this a bunch, but your opponents won't like it at all. PNG..............Honor..............Pride...............Tradition !

I believe it is a combination of both. A coach is a motivator, but along with motivation and success, comes talent. The vice-versa is true as well: you could have a lot of talent, but unless the coach is a motivator and sets the bar for success, then the success is limited.

WOW! Great news for Permian! ;D

Uh, ok......hmmmmm..... ???

LOL ! You should be pretty easy to find! I agree, first home game, the stands will be a rockin!

I would have to go with Jeremy Johnson of Silsbee.

kf, PNG is on the right track with Coach Faircloth. He's implenting a lot of positive changes that PNG needed and the future, like pngfan1 stated, is looking very bright for the Indians. It's been a long time since I've seen this much excitement around The Reservation and I, like everyone else, can't wait for Week 0. BTW, what school do you support? Just curious ;D ;D.

Not sure who the coaches were that Faircloth let go. But, like pngfan1, I did hear that Faircloth was attributed with the offensive success at Permian.

I agree with ONE of your points......MCM is the BEST rivalry in the State if you ask me.

Good analysis...I agree with you. I think Langham Creek would be a good prospect.....would be tough and a challenge but very rewarding.

Talked to the dad of one of the players and he said his son said the whole team is "excited" about the 2009 football season and have a lot of respect for Coach Faircloth and his ability to motivate the kids and get them ready. The kids are working really hard in offseason and said Faircloth is already implementing a lot of Permian strategies and work ethics at PNG. Everyone I talk to at PNG is ready for next year and this young coach has come in and energized the heck out of the community and the school. Have to admit, it feels good to be sharing in the experience! ;D PNG............Honor............Pride.............Tradition................CONTINUES!

DeRon is gonna be GREAT this year. He has great hands and the ability to get open quick. I'm sure Coach Faircloth will be "fine tuning" him even more before the season.

Very Nice! ;D

Just wanted to share a couple of pics from The Reservation. Extremely proud and hope all the area teams will have the chance to enjoy a new stadium of thier own really soon. Not braggin, just very proud of the things going on at The Reservation! PNG..........Honor............Pride..........Tradition

Now if you could just convince my wife... LOL ! Good one !

Thanks Bear.....no need to worry.....PNG is on the comeback, the "naysayers" just need to take a seat and enjoy the ride! ;D

We can speculate all we want and predict, but who knows, especially now with ALL the coaching changes for next year. I guess that's what I like most about Southeast Texas football......bout the time you think you have it all figured out, then you realize your right back to square one with your predictions! With that being said, best of luck to ALL our teams this year and hopefully a state crown will be brought back to our neck of the woods!
