Oh, I'm sorry. Was that "coach bashing"? :huh:
PNG NDN Fan said:Why would he wish to be at PN-G?, his team was playing in the semis when the Indians were done for the year. No need to bash the man because he decided to stay where he was. I think everything worked out for everyone as Faircloth was probably the best fit for PN-G given what the PN-G program needed and where Faircloth is in his coaching career.
Maybe you forgot how he was bashing PNG after he came here in order to get Calallen to give him a raise? I'm not sorry he's not here--I was being sarcastic. Personally, I dislike anyone who bashes PNG or the Indians; maybe you feel differently and, if so, that's your right.PNG NDN Fan said:Why would he wish to be at PN-G?, his team was playing in the semis when the Indians were done for the year.

Please elaborate. I don't recall his saying anything negative about PN-G.squaw said:Maybe you forgot how he was bashing PNG after he came here in order to get Calallen to give him a raise?

Not that it really matters, but I seem to recall that Danaher was interested in PN-G because he thought that in the long run he had a better chance to break the state record for coaching victories here than at Calallen. The talent at Calallen was supposedly running thin. Also, as I recall, in the end he was embarrassed to leave Calallen since the ISD was naming the stadium for him. I don't ever recall reading that he got a raise to stay in Calallen, although that is certainly possible.PNG Proud said:I made the comment because of the things that he (reportedly) said after touring our facilities. And the fact that he came down here "acting" like he was looking for a new job, when he intended to stay in CC all along. Just using PNGISD as a pawn for his pocketbook. In MY book, that's a moron.
BTW, there ARE morons that can coach too. One has nothing to do with the other.
IndianFan said:Truth is he WAS interested in the PN-G job. And lost interest because the former coaches acted like disrespectful morons, and the prospect of a certain head coach still being around was a toxic situation.
IndianFan said:There's a lot more to the story with Danaher. All I'll say is don't question the man's integrity and assume you know what he was doing or why he did it.
Calallen is one of those Texas schools that has just as much to be proud of as PN-G. They've actually been much more successful in several sports.
There IS reason to claim honor, pride AND tradition outside of the PN and G city limits. ;D

I could not be more proud of our team and our community. The spirit here is unmatched! I am so lucky to be a part of it and to wear the purple and white! The journey of this football season, with these coaches and our players, will stay with me forever. -- PN-G Head Coach Jeff Joseph
