You better believe it. We’re hiring Mr T and Chuck Norris next. 

No sport has nearly the aggregate amount of emotion around it like football. When PNg won state in baseball (also, I’m just realizing PNG won state in two sports in a six year stretch - That’s pretty cool) everyone was extremely excited and proud. But it wasn’t even close to the near-religious, transcendent breath of joy that opened up across the entire PNG community when we won in football. Football is king at most schools. If coaches chose their jobs only on lack of pressure, they’d all be fighting for non-football spots.

Funny you mention that, they've always been weak one time a group of my friends from church beat their starters. But that's been an accepted fact and football reigns king here. But still a true story a church league of guys under 6' won 

my opinion,only an opinion,the coach doesnt matter if the players and community does not buy into the program..

It should be the DC from Desoto , but they will mess this up 

Well, they’ll have to actually travel, is what I mean, probably won’t get their Dallas area refs, and probably will have a smaller crowd than they get at At&T, facing a not-at-all smaller PNG crowd. 

5ad2 makes no sense. 

Was that you with a golf cart  full of mailboxes driving down Nederland Ave?! 

I'm hired. 10yr $100 Milli. I'll be better than Jimbo Fisher 😁

It’s a joke lol 

Poor Splendora. 

Very very few. Usually it's just one school that appeals their district alignment. 
In this case, the whole district should appeal it's regional alignment.

I thought the only way for PN-g to make it to state was to lose the first game to PAM.

I think Neumann started in 1993. In his first seven years, he was 4-3 vs PNG, and it only got worse for PNG from there.

those are not in order.

they were 4-6 last year in 6A

a few years back when they put us(Jasper) in Reg 2 I thought that was the dumbest thing the uil could do.  
low and behold was I wrong!  Location could be more justified than PNG/NED.
GOD himself can't ever make that make any sense to me!

District 11 (currently region 3) should be in either region 1 or region 4 (if in region 4, move district 14 to region 1). And why would Liberty Hill be in district 11 (9 teams) instead of district 10 (six teams, and makes roughly as much geographic sense)? 
District 4 (currently region 1) should be in region 2.
District 8 (png & Ned, currently region 2) should be in region 3.
 
The right solution was under their noses. How do we go from a Houston area school to a Dallas area school? There are two entire districts closer to Dallas that could be in those northern regions. How does Liberty Hill moving into our region bump us to the entire other side of the bracket?
 
Regardless, PNG will be a good team and this alignment makes for some interesting matchups, both in district and in the playoffs. 

The uil loves to change things up when giving the chance and opportunity!! I love change and chaos  !!

Uil has no clue!

Right - this is something I think needs to be underlined. Joseph inherited a healthy program with kids who had won several key games and had had a deep-ish playoff run. He didn’t have to “rebuild” so much as “redirect.” It sounds like Nederland will need to do something closer to a true rebuild.
That’s going to be key in how people evaluate the new guy. If the standard is “do exactly what png did and go straight to state,” that’s probably not going to work, because Faircloth left PNG in a state that is ahead of schedule relative to where Nederland is.
But, I don’t think we’re talking a several year rebuild. I think Nederland just needs to get kids back , get more kids in, hit the weight room better and structure themselves to go toe-to-toe with the power and conditioning of elite programs. They aren’t far off - If Nederland had 1% improvements across every category of improvement, they become an entirely different team.
A lot of Nedeand’s woes amount to just being left behind, not so much getting worse . The last two years, Barrow would probably have gone at least 1-1 against PNG if Faircloth had stayed the coach, because Faircloth built his teams the way Barrow does - Poor conditioning, low strength training, no attention to defense, and just hope you win by two points in a shootout. Joseph doesn’t do that, and he showed that there‘a a recipe for the mid county schools to compete at the highest level. Nederland can do it too, but given the current state of the program it might take a year or two to really see the results. But it could also be immediate, as we’ve seen. 

I’m sure it’s been done.. but all of 5A D1 just screamed excitement lol

To go to the trouble of getting TD on board, only to not hire his recommendation - I’m not saying there would be a riot, but it might be smart to buy stock in a pitchfork company.
