This is the first time I've ever posted. After seeing some of these comments I had to register. It's funny how the comments after a 6-5 playoff season haven't changed much since a 3-7 season one year ago. About this same time last year, people were talking of a coaching change WHEN WE DIDN'T EVEN NEED ONE. I mean honestly, what happened to that 100 man roster we had in the spring??? As a matter of fact, you can count on one hand the number of starters on this year's team that did not start last year. When the hype wore down, it was the same bunch of tough nose men doing the playing and all those kids that thought they wanted to play football were in the stands probably leaning on that pathetic excuse of "I don't like the coach." Now once again, JC4life, you're saying we should change it up agian? HAHAHA Your understanding of Jeff County football is definitely questionable. Like Red81 stated, consistency with any coaching staff is crucial. Say what you want, but there were good things to come with Coach U but that didn't work out. I also believe there are good things to come with Coach Anderson and his staff, so why don't the fans set back and let the coaches do the coaching!!!
Another example is helton's suggestion of tough manditory workouts! Which I agree with but we had those the past three seasons and if my memory serves me correct people we're saying Coach U should "lightin up" and basically beg kids to come out. Careful helton, JC4life will be on that like ducks on a june bug! haha He has this big spill on recruiting and having no discipline.
JC, I've seen your "grade card" on the season. If the coaches would just call you up when a decision needs to be made Jeff County football would be alright wouldn't it? NOT!!! You think Jeff County is a shoutgun five wide type team? You've got to have A LOT of real good athletes and an even better quarterback to throw the ball around alot at the high school level. Jeff County runs the veer! That's that! Why don't we worry more about perfecting the system that these coaches have in place? JC4life, do us all a favor and change your contradiction of a screen name unless you want to get behind these players and COACHES!!
I was at the Science Hill game this year and heard something that I was ashamed to hear. Late in the first half, a player on the sideline started trying to get the crowd into the ballgame. I heard a man sitting not far from me lean over to his buddy and say, "Well, give us something to cheer about." Listen up people, if you want to call yourself a Jefferson County Patriot, then you support your team through the good and bad times. Luckily the team had enough in them to come back and win that game because the crowd sure didn't help them get back in it. The West game was a prime example....the crowd never lost intensity and therefore the team never did and went on to blow west out of the water. At the Farragut game I got the feeling that a lot of the fans there were just ready to take the loss and go home. However, when the Patriots showed they could play with Farragut, everyone jumped on the bandwagon. But in the second half most jumped off and just started trying to officiate and make fools of themselves.
Lets quit trying to start coaching rumors and things of that nature and instead talk positive about Jeff Co football!! Go Patriots and good luck to the staff and players through the off season and next year!!
