Paul Bourgeois is a class act. He did a great job at Sulphur. Was in the Dome in '06 and lost in OT.


...and was run off because of his politics and lack of results. He made it to the state championship on defense. It sure as hell wasn't offense.

The state championship game was possibly the worst coaching job I have ever seen. Bourgeois single-handedly lost that game.

I was glad to see him go. At the same time, disappointed in his replacement that will probably be gone within the next couple of years.

I would be excited about the hire if I was an EA fan. His teams were always very well coached.

Sulphur was a run first offense but very good play action passing team. Very multiple pro style offense with some I, one-back, and some shotgun spread.





Have fun watching lots of FB dives and QB sneaks.

How is a guy not from there, with no ties there, a political hire?

There are "politics" involved in every coaching hire. I would say having the qualifications that EA was looking for in a coach/AD and a good track record as a coach would be the most likely reasons he got the job.

Dennis Lorio had more connections than any of the 4 candidates and can "politic" with the best of them and still did not get the job.

That's kind of what I was thinking. Lorio would have been the political hire.

Not sure what to think about what offense EA will run under P. Bourgeois, but one thing is for sure another unsuccessful one dimensional run offense would be a disaster for the fans. Lets hope his offense is more balanced than run only, if not he should hire a good OC and let him be in charge of it.

That's what I was thinking as well. He has been living in that area for awhile now and his wife has at least 10-12 years in that school district. Seems like if they wanted a good ol boy they had him right there in the interview room.

Lorio's better days are past him now. His last few Thibodaux teams have been some of the worst coached and most undisciplined teams I've seen.(Hike it to Trovon Reed and watch him go out of bounds because he ain't gettin hit)

I hope Bourgeois does well. His teams seemed to fare well in that tough district.

Why Jenkins didn't get the job? I'll never know.

Maybe they didnt wanna go with another assistant ala Lambert.

Can this school board get anything right??????
