Thats what worries me being a top notch job should carry first rate pay. Will the school board be ready to do this.
I was referring to the few years right before Stump took over. Despite being the largest of the three BISD schools they were getting beat in the Beaumont Bowl games. It seems to me that since Ozen came into existence West Brook declined. My main point was how incredible a job Stump has done.He has built a state power. I wish he would be interested to coming to the Reservation.PNGfan said:pngfan1 said:Very good point, playing in the larger class probably had a lot to do with 1 - 9 in '88. With the talent coming(regardless of what the people on other boards think), I believe the right coach can make the transition fairly painless.I just look at how Craig Stump brought West Brook from joke of Beaumont to State power pretty quick.I must honestly say we are far better off now than West Brook was before Stump, so just maybe.pngfan93 said:pngfan1 said:Think back 1988, we went 1 - 9, then hired malone and went 10-2 in 1989. If we get the right man it will not take a few rough years.
Only this time we will not be dropping in classification as we did in 1989.
WB was down for a couple of years when Rabb was head coach, but they weren't a joke of Beaumont. In the early 90's when I was there our varsity was 20-2 in two years, and dominated everyone in this area including #1 4A team WOS 34-7, Yates, Deer Park, Booker T. Washington, along with other high powered teams back then with a handful of D-1 prospects. Three players from our team went pro, and a bunch played D-1 football. It goes back to the cycle of talent in each age group. This was done at the end of the career of good coach with Rabb being the OC.
No problem I've become an NDN and have been one for a while now. I agree with what you're saying, but I do believe hiring from the outside is the best for PNG. Also, I think you get a guy with an open mind and PNG could be dangerous.pngfan1 said:I was referring to the few years right before Stump took over.

PNGfan said:Take a look at the Kaufman coach, could be a diamond in the rough. Has a pretty high winning pct and won a state title when he coached 2A Corrigan-Camden. He's at a 3A and they are playing Celina this week in the Quarter finals. Appears this guy knows how to win.
I think so, too. Trayor has coached two state championships and in his first seven years, sent 36 players to play college ball under scholarship which is something we need to do for our boys, too. He is 40 y/o. Also, we should look closely at Bryan Barbay. He's also 40 y/o and has three sons coming up who would be a great addition to our program. His record is good,too. Previous to the HC job at Coldspring, he was defensive coordinator at Kirbyville.tribesman said:I like Jeff Traylor ALOT !!! He needs to get a long look if he shows any interest at all !!! :thumbsup:
I just brought up todd York coach at Kaufman after coming across his name on a site I found about the top 100 highest winning % coaches. I looked him up and found his stats to be pretty good. He accomplished to get a state title at a 2A school and has brought a 3A school deep into the playoffs two years in a row. He's fairly young and seems to be energetic. His team won the US Army award after beating the #1 3A team in the state earlier in the year and he's from Conroe in the Houston area. he has no ties that I know of in this area. I'm just throwing his name out there, but I don't know him and couldn't really argue alot of points for him. I'm fishing just like everybody else. I was impressed by his winning and his teams seem to do good, but it is at the lower level.modmouse78 said:PNGfan said:Take a look at the Kaufman coach, could be a diamond in the rough.

Just wondering, what is your interest in Kaufman? You sure have been pushing for him. Again, not saying anything bad, just wondering what you have seen, or heard, that makes you want us to go for him so much.
