Probably not because of contracts

I heard all contracts was up either next month or end of year

Congratulations Coach Rich! Will he bring in his own staff?

Sorry, I 've been on a hiatus but I'm back for the slander! All I'm saying is there has been an influx of Mexican kids who has moved in and they bring nothing to the table football wise and hardly athletic wise. You make it seem as I'm Donald Trump petitioning to "Build That Wall" haha.  If anything, they may play soccer, but look at the soccer program!! Nederland was ALWAYS good in soccer now they are at the bottom of the barrel, who would've ever have thought Nederland Football, Soccer, and Baseball would all be mediocre or below average. Times have changed for the worst and it has more to do than coaches, it comes down to athletes and talent! Boys Basketball is the only Boys sport being competitive! And what do you mean the Track Coach won't let the kids participate in individual events!? Track is mainly an individual sport?!

🤷🏻‍♂️ please go back on your hiatus

Does Nederland not emphasize this?  You’ve already called out English, but don’t mention other sports getting kids to sign contracts that they won’t miss practice for other sports.  It’s seems like you would get better talent working together, instead of making kids sign a contract that they won’t miss track practice for a baseball game. 

Then I heard he (Nederland track coach) takes their medals back after they win when he gets mad.

What specifically am I wrong about!? Go check them out at camp fun, or walk the hallways during transition an tell me I'm wrong. Some people have no clue on what it takes to win at the level PNG is winning right now. Can Nederland improve from how awful they've been the last few years? Yes, but they WILL NOT make deep runs in the playoffs with the kids they have up front!! Smh, people acting like Nederland is a coach away from going to State haha what a joke. Until Nederland emphasize kids to be multi sport athletes, Skill positions running Track and Lineman participating in Powerlifting as well as get some quality Big kids moving in to the school instead of kids who can't speak English then they will have a HUGE hurdle/hurdles to get over.

What’s up with this kids who can’t speak English statement, YOU KEEP ending your last two posts with this statement.  Ever tried learning their language.  Maybe you should you wouldn’t be upset about it.  No one is asking for a miracle overnight, as for skill positions running track, why, that coach needs to go to if you ask me, he will not let them participate in individual events.  I can go on but, anyway, let’s wait to see what changes will happen!! Oh and camp fun needs some changes too, but that will come with new staff I guarantee that will definitely change.

I hope you are not referring to the PAM coach!

😬🤔 I really hope not

Maybe it’s relevant to them.  🤷‍♂️.  

How can parents find out who made all district?  A few parents trying to find out, because all the other districts letting their kids know can anyone let me know

Last year and maybe this year too from what my neighbors told me.  The morale is not there at all after the lost to TC

Understandable Im pretty sure we will find out soon enough 

👀 you gonna leave us hanging 👀👀

I do not know why some players are quitting to go to 1 sport or simply walking the halls at Nederland 

I do know that the football players are not getting quality coaching.  If they were, you would not see the results we are seeing.

I see an offense that can’t score against good teams, a defense that, has given up more points in 1 season than a team should give up in 3, and special teams that may have possibly been the worst in the district.

The last 2 seasons have been really bad and surely the administration has seen this.

IMO, it is past time for coaching changes at Nederland 

I have three kids in my neighborhood that played last year and I just asked them why they didn’t play this year and they said it was because of the coaches.  They had a whole lot to say.  This would have been their Sr year

@spidersal you are definitely correct and at first I thought you was against them, but know I see you know exactly what you are talking about.  I hate this for them

If he’s not doing the job, fire him and replace his ass 🤷‍♂️.  There’s no lack of talent so if you know the problem…fix it.  

The thing is they can’t because they all eat at the same table.  And this has been this way since the 90’s.  So he will never go nowhere

How many carries does our running back have?

He only had 5 they did not give him the ball and when they did no blocking at all now he hurt

Me if I was coaching them, I pop them with the element of surprise. With that I mean put them in positions. But that’s me it not all about the long passes. Just my opinion   But we all know run left, run right, pass.  Same plays for the last 10+year's

His speed would be killer in the playoffs. Scary. Especially paired with Chatagnier’s bruiser-style running. In Mid County Madness, I almost found myself wanting him to get more big runs just because it’s cool to watch that level of speed and agility. But (and not to kick Nederland while they’re down) there was hardly any blocking for him. He was on his own, and the confusing part is some of the plays seemed designed to put him on his own. No Rb can overcome that. 

I agree, I just wish they would have utilize him and other players in the right way.  I wish them the best in playoffs.  Meanwhile you stay on your side of the track and no more talk of wearing purple 🤣

He’s already chewing up yards - But imagine him behind PNG’s o-line 

I’m a Bulldog for life, but if that was to happen, let me just say PNG would possibly be STATE CHAMPIONS.  Seriously no district in their right minds would not like to have a RB of that caliber.  I feel if they get a new coaching staff maybe thinks will turn around, they can’t afford to lose any players to be honest.  I don’t see him leaving though.

Well idk about pulling of the strings stuff, but the juniors are a close knit group so I think they'll all come back. Hubert Thomas is the only one that I think could possibly leave because of the weak O-line. Was talk of him leaving last year, by the way this season is going to end I wonder if Barrow will keep his job or be forced to resign!? Because by the way things are looking this playoff game is going to be rough!! Goodluck to em though

Well I hope not, I enjoy the watching him play I did hear these some of these boys been playing together for a while.  I really would love to see them go further just not being put in position to win.

From the PA News:  "Nederland (4-6, 4-2) had managed only 83 yards and five first downs before cracking through against the Stings’ reserves."  With Ned's #1 and #3, this is all they could get?!  Embarrassing!!

 

Thank the coach for that

I believe Nederland did not cross mid field until 3 minutes left in game and TC had all back ups  to the back ups in. The play calling was laughable…but the execution was worse. Maybe 3 first downs until the last 4 minutes of the game for Nederland. TC had a punt with about 9 minutes, our punt team just turned and went back. The punter probably could have run for 30 yards but he held the ball for about 5 seconds, then punted. The ball slowly rolled to about half yard line and was downed. Backup QB was put in…safety. Dogs got ball back and finally crossed mid field with about 3 minutes left. QB had a very nice run for TD. Maybe coaches didn’t want this week’s opponent to have good film on em. Can’t think of another reason for the “game plan”…and just to tidy up the message of lack of awareness, injured player on sideline wearing slippers and pajama pants with uniform, throwing the football around looks poor when a staff is under the microscope…Go Dogs, Good luck to the kids, hope for a injury free game!

I was watching same thing on TV last night when I seen the sideline and told myself this is not a good image at all.   I agree the coach’s definitely crushed any excitement they had for playoffs.

This was the worst they looked offensively all year, mind you they threw like 4 picks last week against PNG last week! The play calling was horrendous, and the pick right after halftime was the nail in the coffin. 3rd and short multiple times and they went lateral instead of running downhill with one of the best backs in the district!?!? And less than 100 total yards total for the whole game, kids were checked out in the second half. There were a little 50 people in the stands, I never seen such a small fanbase! They are about to get demolished and embarrassed in this playoff game. They are not finishing this season on a positive note. Will be interesting how they play this QB situation next year! Cause this season is over smh

I totally agree with you.  But what I wanna know how many you think coming back after this.   This is how our district loses good and talented kids.  These kids wanna win, but you have other people pulling strings behind the scenes, cause my buddy son and my friend son need to play.  Until then I HATE TO SAY IT NHS will not get better.
