Here are some stats for those who don't like the coaching staff: Lidney Thompson's 1st year: 6-4 (didn't make the playoffs)  Curtis Barbary's 1st year: 5-4-1 (didn't make the playoffs)

I would interested in knowing how you think the coaching style has changed? This is the same style offense Newton has ran since 1968. The same offense that Barbay taught to Jack Alvarez who taught it

If Newton makes these kinds of mistakes against Dangerfield or Paul Pewitt,  they will not win.

Kudos to ND and not trying to take from their effort but this is a first rd playoff game that Newton is supposed to own the opponent and your letting them out 35  you??? Wow!! 

I'm from Newton and I agree. Not blaming the players. I believe you should hold adults accountable. I still say Newton has the best athletes in the state. 3AD2

Me too man. I Don’t live their anymore but I was born and raised there and I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a first round game where our D gave up points like this

You sure do talk a lot of crap. You should go to the fieldhouse and voice your concerns to the coaches and see how that conversation turns out. Those guys are working their tails off 7 days a week trying to get these kids prepared to play and instead of commending them for what they are doing you continue to bash them. Sometimes you have to blame the players too. Coaches aren’t out there making them throw 3 picks or fumbling the ball. Kids are playing hard trying to make plays and they get a penalty it happens. Get over it move on and get ready for the next one.

WT Johnston's 1st year: 9-3 (Out in 2nd round)

Probably should have gotten rid of all of those coaches after the first season. Who knows what kind of program Newton could have.....

Maybe you supposedly "Newton fans" "Born and raised" should study the word support. You don't support until things aren't perfect then want their head. Pump your brakes, we're still playing.

your QB is out.  Others key starters played limited.  This not only changes your play book and how you coach but your players mentality.  This is hard to deal with and it throws everything out of sync.  It starts showing on the field and this makes it even harder to mentally stay in the game mindset.  

This is normally how and when huge upsets happen.  It didnt.  They found a way to stay ahead and finish it.  Alot of school are sent home in this scenario.  Be proud of the program, coaches and kids.  

Get the pieces back together and open the playbook back up and Eagles will be fine again.

      Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.

      I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.

      He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up.

      I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success.

      Classic Bridge City.  Always someone else's fault, refs/umpires cheated, AD with an agenda, yada, yada, yada.  As far as I can tell it's damn near impossible to get fired at these schools so when someone does get fired, it's usually something.  Drama at Bridge City is a constant.  The guy did a good job coaching basketball and I'm sure he'll continue that somewhere else.  Time to move on.
