amen brother but dont expect any love back your way!

Im going to stop crying and agree to come back at the end of the year and say " i told you so" I am sinply a 30 year fan that has set in the seats from the 70's through this crap. I have seen 3000 fans in the seats and i have seen 12000 there. I am simply a fan without a kid in the school system trying to give an unbiased point of view. Can either of you say the same thing. There were a large group that tried to save the coach b-4 creig. A coach from the outside came in and sparked the 80's. Im done trying to reason with dads and players with ties within this system. I wish the players the best of luck. many of you have worked hard and deserve better!!!!!!

he will play defense at the next level. hes 5-11 take off the shoes and measure. I simply making the point that the quarterback is a different skill set. Others on here have pointed this out but a few of you blast everyone that points this out. (most current football players) Stop trying to make him something hes not. A great athlete is for sure. A good quarterbck NEVER,

you bet. we are better than what we have had in the past several years and the only way it will get better is to make changes. We are simply too predictable. i know we threw it more last year but with little productivity. Most of the time it simply dug a hole to run on 2nd and 10. The fact is that he was the 3rd best quarterback at passing. Best running!!! He did give us the best chance of staying close to teams but that only works if you play flawless football and we turned it over too often. The fact is we are very weak at the passing game in general and most is not the quarterbacks blame. The coaches think that simply dropping back and throwing the ball constitutes a passing game. Those teams that pass successfully set it up and practice it as much or more than the running game. We do not know how to pass and pass block. Why A coach from nothing but a veer background with no experience. Facts In the 80's, we could simply run run run but times have changed. Teams like maryville will put 28 on anybody. Its too much to ask the defense to hold teams to under 10 because we cant keep up!! they make you cover sideline to sideline and 40 yards deep. we make defenses cover sideline to sideline and 5 yards deep. Its certain that there are current football players on here crying each time someone says somthing critical about this team. I admire your loyalty but If you cant handle the criticism, then dont come on here. The fact is that when you are 14-16 over the past 3 years, some criticism is derserving. what do you think maryville would do with a 14-16 coach. Why should we expect less or deserve less here at JCHS. Stop selling ourselves short. When you are the second largest school in the state we should not lose to 4and5 a programs on a regulay basis. Losing here has become all to common. WHY because we except it

Just got off the website that post the componets of the combine. This was not quarterback combine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this was simply a combine of general athletic ability. He no doubt rates well at this and only proves the point that he is wasted at quarterback in which teams will key and take away at some point. If they would simply change the rules that limit the number of defensive players they can put in the box then JCHS would be world class. If you do not have arm to play quarterback, then move to another position that does not require it. Carson Newman seems to have got the message as they have recuited the Greeneville and Marryville quarterback. Looks like they may open it up abit in the future.

now that we have goins as a great combine quarterback in the nation, what is his passing abilities. Stafford from GA who went first in the draft 2 years ago ran a 4.9. 40 times and trap speed does not mean anything when it comes to quarterback ability. Im sure the Colts are not concerned about Mannings 40 times. 40 times are for others to show athletic ability. Not the quarterbacks. These are often 6'2 and above men with strong arms!! At some time, he will have to prove that he can stand in and lead a 2 minute comeback with something other that his legs. How may times has he done this. NeVER How many pocket passes did he complete last year. You can count them on 1 hand. ALL COMPLETIONS OFF ROLLOUT AS DEFENDERS CAME UP TO SUPPORT RUN AND LEFT BO OPEN. ANYONE CAN COMPLETE PASSES TO RECEIVERS OPEN BY 30 YARDS. jchs can show up and win 8 games next year but will exit playoffs early because maryville or another knoxville power will put 8 in the box and jchs will be finished. Everyone knows this deep down. dont give me the ronnie brown crap. He does not play quartback 5-10 plays during the entire game. And Tebow is not a good example either. He is not close to the best athlete at florida. He is a winner and leader and had enough arm to work in college. he ran 4.7. Get real and be honest. We all know how this will end. We will show up with the same old offense and expect different results. insanity. Fix it now

I think the coaches have a quick watch. From what I hear. Outside sources have Goins anywhere from 4.57 to 4.6. D1 and Combines. Lets make no mistake about it. Hes fast but not world class. If so he better move to track.. Nothing like inside sources to take a few tenths off the old forty times.. Last fall he was closer to 4.6 to 4.7 at the combine!! This has been going on for years but lets get close at least. 4.41 is Deon Sanders speed. This is why most athletes show up an lose 2 tenths when timed by college coaches or laser watches!!!!

Whats 2010 looking like? Any Comments

May I make a few points about the teacher/coach comparisons. 1. Teachers often have to teach students that do not want to be at school. Large number! 2. Football Players are there by choice. Most know the requirements very young as the ones that have made it this far come from competitive backgrounds with parents/coaches pushing them! The few!! Football players are different! Your have to be to come to practice in 100 degree days and push yourslef to the limits. The ones on the fence - Coaches job is to motivate them to perform this is where we separate the great from the average coaches. Football players want to win. Thats why they come out. 3. Athletes in Jeff County are no different than any other county in this state! The same distractions or less than say an inner city with more trouble. See my point.. What makes the difference is the coaches. Most winners win everywhere they go as they have proven principles that work. Some will lose at every level. The difference is how we relate to them and how we motivate. How is a boy here in JC different than one at West or Greeneville. There not!!!!!!!! 4. Coaching is different. See this is a competition. Teachers teach to improve test scores and help students. Coaches go Head to Head to win Football games. They are Graded by their wins/loses. This is why we pay the best ones $$$$$$$$$$ to do their job. Note: Most head coaches do very little teaching. They set direction and motivate. The assistant coashes and Coord's do the teaching. The head coaches are managers. ONE Truth for both. There are good ones and bad ones in each profession!! How do we judge them Think about it.

Let me myself very clear. I never criticized a player. Im simply questioned where he plays his players. Sounds like you know him and have taken this to heart. The facts are that he places the players at positons and he is responsible for the fumbles and turnovers as he makes these decisions. If someone keeps turning the ball over, is it not the coaches job to fix it! Its his job! get in the real world !! If he was a president of a company would you allow him to sink the company! The fact is if you did your job at a 40% rate, you would get fired!!.. Each year that we give the gold old boy more time, we allow players to defect to other programs. See - here is the deal As parents see a losing program, they move their kids due to the money they can save on scolarships. College coaches will look at winners first!! And back to the record. Last years comeback was due to the fact that we played Cherokee, Cocke County and S. Doyle in the last half of the season. Our Freshman teams would have beaten them. Its this liberal way of thinking that will ensure that we will be discussing the same topics years from now! Does no one answer for this program? If he accepts the money, he gets to answer for failure. Its more than putting in the time. Putting in the time doe not take talent, It simply takes time!

Lets look at the real problems. Its not the players. They are loaded!!!!! If you have followed this group of upcoming 11 and 12th graders you will find that many had not lost 2-3 games in their life until they reached JCHS. The Middle school programs simply dominated their comp during these years. White Pine had not lost a game in 4 years and JC and Dandridge had nominated the big 8. The problem is that they have done a poor job of putting the talent together at JCHS!!!! Look at the players that changed positions last year. This is the problem. Players in wrong positions. How many years do they have? They are betting the farm on this one class. What happens after that, 3 and 7 again when half the tallent has left or gone to West or somewhere else. One of the reasons that Brimer had to go was the big disagreement over the quarterback position. He insisted that our quarterback play defense and receiver, but never quarterback!! This is not opinion but facts!! Get goins in space where he can score touchdowns. The fact that he is fast is but the main reason that you move him out into space where he can succeed. Can you see Reggie Bush as a quarterback?? Goins can be our Reggie Bush!! The veer is set up to hit the hole fast with a fullback and hit the corners with speed with a quarterback that can read. Its not necessary for the quarterback be fast but it is critical that he can read and distribute the ball. Notice I said distribute the ball. Its too easy to key on the quarterback. Thats the reason he gives it to someone else either by handing it off or by play action pass. If you were the defensive coaches on the other sideline, would you not love it if the oposing quarterback kept it most of the time. TOO EASY TO STOP. This gets us to the next issue. If they do not find a way to be 60-40 BALANCED, they will go out of the playoffs early as one to the big Knoxville teams will load the box and stop the run. Thats why the veer died may years ago and colleges went to the pro or spread formations. Whats sad is that we have the talent to run it very well. Our back can punish people in Counts. Mason, Goins, and Bo are simply special in space. Is it really that hard??? Our offense should put 40 on the board each game but we are stuck in the 60 and 70's with the veer!! can you imagine Army playing Florida or Alabanma and competing on a regular basis. Could you imagine Tennessee running the veer? Then why would we hire someone that refuses to move us forward. This simply kills our boys in college recruiting as well. How many coaches will look at an offensive player that runs the veer. No one but CN A reader said a few days ago the the Bible kid has a great arm but does not fit this program and he is correct!!! Peyton manning would not fit this program. He would simply move away! Get the picture. Its time for JCHS to step up to SEC type offenses. We have the talent to do so most years. In fact our talent pool demands that we do so. We cant run over anyone as our line is too small. We must dink and dunk and get our playmakers in space. We have too much pride to stay down this long. We need a set of coaches that can lead change. Im not criticizing the coaches efforts as they give much time but the results are simply too much to overlook. How can you defend the same coaches that blew a 28 point lead at W. Blount. They should have been fired after that blowup. In short get real and make the hard choices..anything else is putting a bandaid on a heart attach.

I know that JC beat the Karns freshman but, I also know that the Karns teams played about as bad as they had all year, the JC team seemed to really struggle to put points on the board against the Karns team, even with their brusier back, Karns had 6 turn overs 5 lost to JC. No disrespect to the JC fresh but, I would really like to see a rematch with Karns just to see how it would turn out. The JC QB did not nearly seem to be as good as the Powell QB and for sure is no where near the talent that the Karns QB is. in my opinion a win is a win it does not matter how good the other team plays and plus the jc freshmen team did not play real good that game either. go patriots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
