    Old school eagle got a reaction from jimmyw in Diboll at Newton   
    Larger schools have nothing to win and everything to lose by playing a school one third their size.  We should consider ourselves lucky that some larger schools will play us.  It's sure not for the money. It has to be out of the respect other coaches had for Coach Barbary and now for Coach Johnston.

    Old school eagle got a reaction from EaglesFootball in Newton 41 Silsbee 17/FINAL   
    The difference in this game was Newton was the better team. We always have fewer boys suited up this is nothing new.  It's how Coach Johnstnson prepares them and the culture they grow up in.   We had a lot more kids going both ways than Silsbee did but check out the stats. Take of that 70 yd to pass (which was beautiful) and Newton'D did a great job.  We only have around 300 kids in school.  How about a little credit for consistently beating schools 2 1/2 times bigger. I don't see anyone else doing that.

    My Dad always told me my reputation was what other people knew about me, but honor was what I knew about myself.  I have to believe this young man has honor.  The adults who have been an influence in his life should be very proud as he is already a very special person.  May God bless you Kameron.

    I believe Jasper scored twice & Newton scored twice in controlled scrimmage. Jasper run eight min quarter scored once. Then Newton run eight minute quarter they scored once . Tied 3 apiece. 2nd string didn't score. Great scrimmage both teams looked good

    Old school eagle got a reaction from jv_coach in Kirbyville open Neece turns in resignation   
    Coach Johnston will never allow an OC to run the score up on anybody.  If Newton has a big lead, starters don't see the second half.  That's the way Curtis Barbary ran his program and it's still run the same way.  You never know when those tables might turn and the object of the game is never to make your opponent look bad.  Coach Thompśon is 80 years old and coached for 54 years and as far as I'm concerned irreplaceable.  But I'm very biased towards my old coach and Sunday school teacher.  He will be missed though.

    I do  hope that you realize that  all but 2 of those games were before 1974 and Little Cyprus was not even consolidated with  Mauriceville then.  Think about relying  on the past. Now in the  1960's Little Cyprus had Newton's number but they haven't since becoming LC-M.

    Thanks Insider for the share. Deviun has been playing with a special fire in his heart all year long and this explains it all.  He leads all classifications in sacks and is totally relentless on every play. Unless you are from Newton it's hard to understand what Coach Johnston means to the community.  He was D.C. For Curtis Barbary for many years and when we lost Coach Barbary it was a no brainer that Coach Johnston would fill his shoes.  The football team is what brings the people of Newton together and a source of enormous pride.  Where else do you see 90 year old ladies at the Quarterback Club meetings?  I mean really.  When Deviun was in his darkest hour he was in the perfect place with the right people to pull him through.  He will always be in the hearts of the people of Newton.

    If Newton's O-line and defensive front 7 continue to play at the level they have been playing, they should be should be hard to beat. I really think this O-line should start getting some credit.

    If the players are making the decisions on who's playing offense and defense you need a new coach.  Guarantee you coaches make those decisions at WOS and Newto.  At Newton the philosophy has always been to try and put their best player at MLB.
