Nederland Coaching

[Couch.Coach]

What's going on with Nederland? I thought their new coach was going to do something. I was wrong.

They had a very good season last year.

People who instantly blame the coaches every time something goes wrong show their ignorance regarding athletics. 

Most nights they are outmanned athletically, success isn’t always linear  Let’s give the guy a 4 year window to see a freshman class through before we claim he  isn’t doing anything

They did have a good year last year. That was the previous coach's efforts. This year is Rich. 

Ignorance of athletics....far from it. They aren't outmanned, just out coached. 

4 year window? Stop it. Are you serious? They way kids are leaving the program, there won't be one in 4 years.

Next year will say a lot about the program.. 17 starters returning so they should show major improvements.. inexperience won’t be an excuse next year

I've heard kids are leaving the program also .Hope this isn't true. Rich may or may not be the answer but he should and will likely get another year or possibly 2.

i'd say leaving the program. I mean they not showing up at PAM, but with this season and if theres a deep playoff run, it might bring kids back to PAM.

Who's to say those kids ever been in Port Arthur ISD let alone Memorial HS??

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Any word on what the snapshot number is for Nederland?? Png perhaps??

[navydawg31]

Kids leaving the program is a first I heard of that one… both freshman and JV football teams will be District Champs… tons of sophomores on varsity getting some serious minutes… I find it very hard to believe that kids are leaving the program… in fact a few kids came back into the program…

I wouldn’t call last season “very good.” Other than beating PNG, there’s not much to point at. They dropped their last three games, including getting pummeled in the first round. 
 

And, I disagree that Nederland is outmanned athletically. They aren’t. They’re big, well-conditioned, they run to the ball. They can toe up physically with anyone in the district. Nederland doesn’t need to wait for a better crop of players. They have good players right now. The problem is entirely in execution, and that’s on the coaches.

The season is a combination of coaching and poor athletic ability. The QB struggles big time passing. If he does throw a decent pass the receivers drop it more times than they catch it. The LB’er and secondary play is about as bad as you can get. The tackling is atrocious (how many missed tackles on Huntsville’s last 2 offensive TD’s)

Yes I would say a definite combination of coaching and poor athletic ability
