Slot t is the most success they've had offensively 

Trahan the Ex girls softball coach turned OC ? That dude has no idea how to run that offense, he simply emulated what Crueder was doing when he was OC ! Crueders the one that forever changed the offense from methodical to unmethodical. At least DuBois could actually fix what Crueder and Trahan broke !

This threads title is misleading. It has nothing to do with the  Vidor coaching job being open.😂

Physical talent you say... this made me think of the Physical Speed that the Vidor Pirates have been utilizing under Mathews. 
I think the new coach will have success in the first few seasons if he keeps running the same type of offense. I wouldn't mind seeing a change to something with more multiple formations but the Pirates will have a fully stocked backfield for the next few years. Only question I have is who will emerge as the starting QB but they should have plenty of good options to tote the rock at the RB position.

I go through key boards quite often!  (Grin)

maaan, the arm chair general managers are out in full force on this post.🤣

Raegan: *probably* keeps punching those keys.😭

Nederland was in that boat before Neumann showed up, he showed them a different path.  Look at Neds record for the 20 years before 1994.  And I am not backing Reagan's off the wall theories, they also had some talent come up through the ranks during those years.  But you have to know how to use that talent as well.

If Surratt came to Vidor, Vidor would immediately do things it has never done in its history. Nearly all of Vidor’s problems can be solved with coaching. Instead, everyone blames the kids. As if there’s some big genetic difference between Vidor and PNG and Nederland (and when Vidor was in our district, except for the last few years they had the same size school as PNG). Before Hurricane Harvey, Vidor was sitting right at around 1400 kids. All respect to Coach Matthews, but I think Vidor runs their gimmick offense because Coach Matthews doesn’t know how to teach the skills necessary to run anything else. Vidor kids can run whatever their coach can or will teach them to run. Vidor players could blow everyone’s minds if their leadership believed they could. 

One more thing VISD students and fans have to look forward to… can’t say the same good ol’BC. We’ll I guess they can look forward to riding down Baileys or getting a corn dog

Congrats to the Coach ! Hope your future is fun!

I think Travis Maines should take a shot. He was a great all around athlete, heck of a qb and a very smart guy. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

You are correct… matched up against two very powerful Lindale teams and lost a one score game to chapel hill when Coach was sent to the ER two hours before kickoff… but you won’t find a 12 year stretch in Vidor history that even closely compares 

68-56 last 12 seasons… two district championships… 7 playoff appearances 
 

You did a good job Coach.  All the best in the future.

Throwing my hat in the ring, I want to be the next head ball coach at Vidor. We will be running the Spread T, maybe I can get MTM to be my offensive coordinator and MTC to be my defensive coordinator. 
No but in all seriousness, I hate to see Coach MTW go but I’m sure he’s had enough and ready to move on to another chapter. Wish him the best at BSN, that’s a sports apparel and equipment company correct?

wish nothing but the best for coach mathews in his future endeavors. he definitely left vidor athletics better than when he took reigns of it.
im curious who they plan to bring in, a coach from outside or someone within the school district?

Wut?

You must have saw different Vidor kids on the field than me. I think there is a significant difference in the speed and size of the PNG kids vs the Vidor kids. I agree they could learn to throw and catch, but are they going to out run people in open space or be able to block in the interior one on one being outsized?

I'm hearing that a certain SETXsports poster has held a one-man parade through the streets of vidor since this announcement was made.  Any truth to this?

Why not look for an outside hire? Vidor could do a lot with a different offense (and defense). I’d love to see it.

🤔…🤷🏼‍♂️… probably same guy 😂
