If you would spend 5 minutes with Neuman you would understand why he was successful.   Motivativator.  Kids would run through a brick wall for him.  Plus he had Delbert Spell on defense and Monte on offense.  He knew what position the guys needed to be and when to press the button.  If it didn’t work well he’d pull some trick  play out of his pocket.

Something needs to happen because thread is going nowhere fast.  Let me just say one thing.  If you bring in the right AD/Coach the athletes will follow.  Then the fans. 

Amen......and spot on. One thing about our neighbor school across the tracks....If there's not a place for you to fit in, it's cause you don't want one. Lot's of good things happening over there. I've always been a Huge supporter of Monte and company but he's gone now and it's time for change. Nederland doesn't have all the home growns and 2nd and 3rd generation kids anymore. So many have moved across the river, and to HF, Lumberton etc.......This isn't as big an issue in PNG. Just not as many diehard born and bred Bulldogs(CULTURE). Everyone needs a place to live but, Nederland is saturated with duplexes , apartments, and rental property. Say what you will but alot of these kids aren't diehards and necessarily Bulldogs due to moving in, out and around too much. This is a leadership problem, and it's in the lap of our City leaders. The ISD is saturated with kinfolks, classmates and GOB's. This can lead to an environment of complacency. It's uncomfortable to discipline kinfolk. This isn't saying Ned is all bad, it's just time for change. Top to bottom, and not just the coaching staff.
 

Nederland is down down, they can't and will not win in the trenches. The D-line will be better than the O-line but that's not saying much AT ALL!! Until they get some lineman Nederland will be average at best!! I feel bad for the running backs, I hear Mosley is doing some things to keep the running back for Nederland which seems a lil fishy but hey you have to do what you have to do to keep the best athlete on the team I guess. I just don't see Nederland getting to PNG's caliber no time soon. The demographics has changed tremendously at Nederland. A huge influx of mexican students have stormed in, plenty who can barely speak english, and don't play football. If they do anything, it's soccer. Nederland has definitely changed and not for the better!!

That’s part of coaching and the nature of the beast. Coaches know that going into the business. 

Three appearances and one victory in 48 years, after taking massive steps forward in training, condition, and coaching, and only following years of getting donkey stomped by better teams , and we finally become one of those better teams and now it’s “waltzing”? 

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and pick Nederland by 13, we will miss a XP

I'm so glad the kicking fiasco will be over after this year.  Will be nice to have the best kicker on the field instead of.... ummm... you get it.  

Nederland Bulldogs have to play a perfect game against Fb Marshall to win but we can do it. running back, wide receivers need to play like they do every game. defense play smash your mouth ball, special-teams covered on sidekicks, no personal fouls, and the kicker don’t leave points on the table that’s what it’s gonna take

Told ya.

Spoke it into existence. 

Tanner Noel is my favorite Nederland kicker ever. 

Alright back to the game 

I think Crosby wins this one 38-17. Hope the dogs prove me wrong. No matter the outcome I hope both teams can have some success in the playoffs.

We have buckets of mud on it way 

Awesome Image, Ignorant reality!!!

Makes for an awesome picture though 
 

 

if Nederland wins...Dayton must be BAD!!!

Nederland doesn't play at home this week so......we will have it nice and wet next week for BH!!

Bulldogs should get  their first W. I like their sophomore wr Fusiler, he is a baller. Two quality running backs and a half decent qb, they should spank Sante fe with no problems. Look for them to hang 40 plus on Sante FE to get rid of that bad taste in their mouth. Bet the house on the dogs lol

I was about to type out a long response but I'm going to leave this thread alone...
 

Several schools suffered as much damage as BU.  HF and Vidor for two.  All of the schools are doing everything they can to get the kids back in class.  Shat happens, and this area has had more than its share lately.   But the next flood could be at PAM, Ned or PNG.   Despite what some people think, we don’t control the weather.  Jmo

I saw a few things I didn’t like in Thursday nights game. I think most of it is fixable by our coaches. That includes hustling until the whistle blows or hitting people late out of bounds which happened a ton last year and has already happened in both games this year. If we can’t hustle or play the game the right way I believe it’s our coaches responsibility to take care of it.  The little things in this game and in life can make a big difference in how things turn out.
