[quote name="PhatMack19" post="1311589" timestamp="1351310827"] Still a lot of things that can happen, but IMO the 4 playoff teams all won tonight. [/quote] Hard to argue that statement.

They don't hit in practice and they have not since Faircloth has been there. He likes to make High School practice look like it's college or the pros. These kids are still trying to learn how to tackle. You must hit in practice! Offense is fancy and all but you must be able to play defense. Faircloth has proven nothing! PNG will never again have as much talent as they had his first year. The first 2 years he was loaded with talent. You cant win without a defense. Anyone that has coached or know these kids know that a power running game would benefit this group more than anything else. They do not have the skill player's to run this offense. Good coaches have to adjust to his talent just ask Larry Neumann. Faircloth bases everything on speed, there is some really good football player's on the bench but their not as fast as others but they will knock the piss out of you! Faircloth is more of a political guy than he is a coach. H e says what the parents and board members wants to hear. His defensive scheme is horrible! [/quote]I don't know if I agree completely on the talent thing. Sophmores, Freshman and 8th grade has some premier players. Kenell from the eighth grade has potential to play on varsity next year, although I don't know if he will, because he is one of those once in along time players that goes thru a program. Ask any of the coaches in our district. [/quote] And Adam Morse may be the best Freshman passing QB I have seen...Ever. Not to mention his WR's catch everything which is unusual for Fish. If you havent seen our underclassmen then you cant really make a statement about 'em Mike. You need to come out and watch the Fish and JV. You WILL be impressed.

Oh so Its a political thing! ::) Always.

[quote name="FrodoNDN" post="1311437" timestamp="1351308107"] Congrats to the pirates, now go on further than you did last year!!!! :D [/quote] Ditto. 1st round matchup could be yall's toughest in the region till the finals. Looks like either SC or Dayton. Good Luck.

I agree the tackling has been poor this year especially. And our boys lost to a very good Dayton team last year, not some 4th place chumps. And it was one hell of a game.

49-7

[/quote] If you knew anything about PNG in 1999 you would know that had more to do with the Longs than Burnett. Take those two seasons outta Burnetts record book at PNG and its sub .500! (Fact) [/quote]Gotta be honest here Badndn, Faircloth stepped into a perfect storm on the Reservation coming in. The talent he had was just coming in its own. That talent pool ended last year where we were one and done and I believe with that team last year we should have been at least three deep. I knew this team did not have the talent pool as well as most people in PNG, so I was not expecting much. But, I am sorry our defense has been bad for the last 4 years. I contribute it to poor training of the basics. It is evident on the field. The kids are talented enough to get to a kid in the back field they should wrap up and bring him down or hold on at least and get help. That has not happened. It is what it is. The Nederland game last week gave me hope because I saw that kind of tackling, but maybe it was just Midcounty madness. I am not pushing Burnett or have I ever mentioned him. I am talking about the current set of coaches. Fundementals are not being worked on as I see it. [/quote] Burnett had a lot of that talent on the sidelines his last year and he blammed his last 3-7 team on lack of talent publicly might I add. BF took that same "untalented" group and went 11-1. Last years team was better than a one and done team, but It just so happened that with the stupid HS FB playoff rules the #2 team in 20-4A and #2 team in 19 4A met round 1. Gonna happen again this year. SC and Dayton will be playing Ned and Vidor in round 1 in some fashion. Meaning two very good teams will be going home, much like PNG last year (PNG defense was statistically ranked 2nd in 20 4A last year in ppg by the way).

[quote name="jmoore" post="1311307" timestamp="1351306140"] Surprised to see Montana still in??? [/quote] Me to. Is he still playing LB also? Games like this one are when you get your starter for next year in to get them some friday night experience if they are on the V roster. Lived in Southlake in the 90's and this is what helped them year in and year out maintain a stronghold on 3A football. Young players played most second halves so they were seasoned by the time they were starters.

[quote name="PhatMack19" post="1311302" timestamp="1351306103"] Nederland in victory formation.  That should be the ball game Nederland      35 Ozen              0    Final That is Nederland's 15th straight district win! [/quote] Congrats...Thats impressive in this district.

BF needs to hire a reputable DC and let him get after it. PNG offense will be very good in the near future.

Being a cellar dweller doesn't feel so good!! [/quote] Where are you getting your info? Last I check BF makes in the $82,000 range. Only coach in GT making over $100K is Neuman. Love how you guys keep making stuff up to make you feel better about yourselves.

[quote name="thedogs1987" post="1311048" timestamp="1351302444"] Monday morning....... PNG Teacher to student, "Since it's Halloween week, what scares you?"

Oh, I feel better now......it's must be the weather change...I need to blame somethin' [/quote] Just remember...Every Dog Has His Day! ;D

So did I miss it somewhere, but where is Jason Smith from Indiana? Not on roster.

If Smith is the young man I saw on JV, then yes he has skills.

I was at Ned/PNG freshman game this year and Nederland scored 3 times. Once on a KO return, once after a KO return to the 10 and one long drive. Outside of that they didn't threaten. Not a lot of Nederland offense or defense for that matter. PNG offense was on the field a lot. Having an exceptional QB in HS goes a long way and with Sophomore Seay in Nederland and Freshman Morse in PNG I think both programs are in very good hands for a few years and will be surrounded with talented kids.

Yes NDNation I'm well aware of the fact that PNG will not be in the playoffs, thus they will not get past the 1st round. Its called sarcasm.

NOT SO FAST! I think he was listing Brenham futures. Nederland will be very good through this Soph class. Seay will be a very good QB and they return Wash, Malveaux, Brown etc nxt year. I agree after soph class it gets a little dry (#44 on fresh team is a load). PNG freshman are very talented. Adam Morse is legit at QB. Giblin at LB and several good WRs (#4 and #15) including Cropper and some big aggressive linemen. Sophs include Walker, Peveto, Lane, Romero, Murdoch, Smith, Mayfield, Benoit, Halfin, Hughes and Sparks. Lots of good headsy football players that will make impacts next year.

Looks like he picked the right time to get outta KVille. Cupboard being dry and all. Good coach, given some talent he can make it work.
