DAMN that sux.

Paul was a good coach. Not too shabby as a QB either.

I would have rather have kept Viator..but alas...

Is this due to medical reasons? I know he had a brain tumor a while back and was going to M.D. Anderson for treatment. Hopefully he's still in good health.

His offense was complete shite. I usually went to Sulphur games every Friday. Since the '06 Championship game in the Dome, I've been to about 5 because of his terrible coaching.

Sulphur was up by 2 in the fourth quarter and was driving. Time to put the game away. They get down to Acadiana's 25 yard line and it gets to be 2nd down. He goes and puts his son back into the game at QB that he hasn't played since the beginning of the season. A different QB had gotten them to the dome and for no reason was pulled. They try 3 straight passes and turns the ball over on downs!! Run the ball and you kill the clock and Acadiana doesn't have so much time to drive and kick a FG with the best kicker in the state that's at LSU now. Idiotic.

Anyway, that's in the past. Finally, Sulphur is looking elsewhere. From what I've heard the three rumored candidates are

Russ Sutherland - Head Coach at Sam Houston. Excellent coach

Tommy Tate - Ex-McNeese Coach

Kirby Bruchaus - Ex-One year McNeese coach.

Got this from another board....

quote:

OK.....since most of you people don't know a thing about football....just like Paul Bourgois....let me fill you in.
Harold Fusilier needs to be the next coach.....he is saying he's not applying but the entire staff wants him to and he prob will. Mr. Bonin is a stand-up kinda guy and needs to be adored by all Sulphur fans for getting rid of the problem.

Bourgois problems......the list is never ending by the way. It could be cuz of the pending lawsuits but it doesnt matter cuz the guy is not a football coach. I bet there is nobody out there that can say they have talked football with him cuz he avoids ever talking about it cuz he doesn't know it.
1. when he got here he basically ran off three of the best coaches SHS had. he couldn't fire them but they left cuz he is an idiot. Abshire-best DB coach in area, Eggleston-best OL coach in area, and Vicnair-only one of the few legends in the area.
2. he cant even stay up in a meeting......the players laugh at him cuz he falls asleep while watching film......there must be some intense coaching going on there
3. took credit for turning SHS program around after it had went to playoffs previous 6 years.....funny cuz i know VIATOR did that.
4. not one coach on the staff has respect for him.
5. and btw....these pending lawsuits are LEGIT

New coach: Fusilier is the obvious choice. however if he doesn't want it there needs to be someone in that circle to take over. Phil Fontenot needs to be the OC.....Fus will still call the defense....and the rest of the staff is in place, they just need a HC that is not a idiot. They dont need an outsider...especially from Barbe, even though Demarie is a good coach. Dont need some WM coach either......

Mr Bonin is taking heat for this by some people in sulphur......you people are idiots.....he is doing the right thing as he usually does

oh, and I'm not sure how reliable that post is...

It does hit on a couple points about the guy though that I've heard.

The other shite about who should replace him? He's an idiot on those cases. Mike Abshire used to be the baseball coach at Sulphur when the current coach took an Asst. job at McNeese.

Prom, you mentioned Sutherland. Do you want him to be the coach there. I think he is a great coach but a lot of people in the bluff miss the old smash mouth days and never really bought into his spread.

From what I understand, Sutherland is from Moss Bluff, so it would take alot to get him to go to Sulphur.
