Congrats to the Macon Tigers. This chance does not come ofton.We are proud to have a neighbor Miss Bean that is playing great. Don't let up give your all. Macon County ( Lafayette ) needs a gold ball. May God guide you in this effort.

Hope is the most improved player on the team. A great player, on a greatteam. Congratulations JC. I believe another gold ball is within reach. I really dont't want to beat a dead horse. But RBS is going to blow another state champ season. They have the athletes again. The big difference in region 4 game was coaching. A very average coach that has always padded his skeduale to achieve wins. The JC coach Jim Brown who has always played the very best teams, and is without doubt the best high school coach in the state. And for teams that are looking to improve, get a strong fairminded coach, work with the parents to encourage support. And work to have a great school system. The fans will support this effort. Again JC is blessed with all this. It did not just happen, they work at it every day. They don't have to recruit kids, and parents, want to be part of this. Go JC>

I have not been able to attend many of the JC games this year due to health problems. I have been there in my heart. This is a fine group of young athletes. What they have done is amazing. That is not a strong enough word for what they have done. It is a tribute to the parents,the best fans in the state, the coaches, and the jackson county school system. Good luck in the state tour. I am hoping I will be able to come.

RBS has had some of the best talent of any schoolin the area. Ask the coaches that have played against them. At least three or four state champs teams. They have made the final four only once. Also they have had more quality athletes quit the team than anyone else. The 500 wins have mostly come against weaker teams. But it is what it is, believe what you want.

Swanny I enjoy reading your comments are always on the ball and provide accurate information. RBS don't get much respect because they don't earn it. They pick only weak teams so you know who can run his win totals up. You let a few people cause the Lafayette games to be canceled. Also dropped Jackson County, Clarkrange, and other games that made money, and drawed big crowds. Not to forget losing the best Xmas Tour. in the state by also bringing in weak teams, so you know who could look good to the locals. Well I think it needs to be brought up at times, wait till next year. You had better do it this year.

I ALSO went to rbs. It is not something I am proud of. To try and justify rbs sports is like saying a terrible movie will win the academy award. A start for rbs would be to not count a two win season as a success. But I know this won't happen, so go on and stay like you have been forever.

The rbs coach better be careful. They had one winning season in 79 went 6-4 and in 80 5-5 and they fired the coach. Best coach they will ever have. Go figure.

Listen if you cannot beat Jackson County don't mess up basketball, like they already have football. It is not the size of the school. It is the fan support, coaching, and the past record of success. And when JC and Clarkrange have a down year they are not on here complaining about someone having an unfair advantage. Did anyone notice how Jim Brown played his freshmen and Soph's early in the year. That will pay off later. Get you a good coach, start working with players in the 5&6 grades or before. Quit crying.

I for one do not have very much interest in football since they changed the system for 6 classifications. It has taken a lot away from the game. Leave the basketball alone. It works fine the way it is. And anyway JC has to rebuild next year, all the weiners will have achance to compete.

I would like to congratulate the Lady Devils. There were players that stepped up this year and I could not say all that I feel about this team. I really believe the situation these girls have had at JC will prepare them for their future lives. There hasn't been much said about it but JC prepares young ladies for their future. Character honesty, teamwork, love for each other, disipline, humility, this may be the most important thing as they prepare to move on. Also I hate to tell everyone in the sports world, but JC is loaded for next year with great players ready to step up. Go JC.

I just wanted also to say that the tournament is very well organized by the tssaa. The facilities are great at a great location. The refs did a great job wed. Yes my team won, but I would say the same if it had went the other way. So good to hear someone give credit when it is due. I actually set there yesterday and told my wife what a great place this was. Again tssaa our hats are off to you, and the mtsu staff. I have followed coach ensel for years he is one of the people that trys to do things right.

Jackson County has a good team. I think most people in JC realize that there are only good teams at the state tour. Having said that any team that has a bad start or let down may lose. The team that plays together, prepares the best, and some luck thrown in will take the gold ball. I am proud of JC and I think there will be no losers there. They have already won, they are in the 2010 state tour. What they have already accomplished for their respective schools, they are truly winners now. God Bless all that participate.

We know the work, and effort these young athletes put in. Also the parents who support and help in so many ways. Miss Heady gave it all she had. Best wishes to her and her family and to the CR nation. How many people play on a State championship team and go undefeated all year. God Bless the Heady family.
