Trinity Christian @ USJ

[Gogogadget]

Camps = games amirite? If he's getting offers based on a combine or two, that shows he has some athleticism. But that doesn't mean anything when it comes down to it. You can't throw or run the ball when you're on your back. We'll see how he plays next friday.

Like I said JW will be all hype around here just because of the teams that TCA plays. He looked scared and very week in the knee every time he had the ball against Trenton. I can imagine him playing Milan, Huntingdon, Westview or even Southside he would be shaking.

What you're not getting is the fact that the "hype" isn't coming from playing in high school. It's coming from doing well at camps and combines with other good to great players around him. Yes playing against those teams that our bigger, emphasis on the word TEAM, while being on a 1A team he probably wouldn't get a lot done by himself. However, colleges are seeing the potential he has to be very good by the time he gets to college and are looking at him. I just think it's funny that people can't be happy for someone that is doing well, but instead try to tear them down. Guess it shows what kind of people you have in Jackson.

Jabriel Washington is legit and is not over-hyped. I'd bet my money that if he were to playing on any team in West TN he'd still be getting the same recognition from TN and GA. The kid is VERY good and is only a Sophomore (keep that in your heads people). Give the kid credit. It's definately a natural talent when you can make an impact like he did in his Freshman year. Good Luck to Jabriel over his next few years.

No one has been arguing his natural ability. I agree. He's very good. My argument started with the comment

"Two words....Jabriel Washington." I have trouble believing that he can single-handedly beat USJ, or any halfway decent team for that matter. I give him due credit.

He's a difference maker. You put all of your focus into stopping Jabriel and TCA should/will have another weapon to hit you with. He may not run for 100 yards but I'll guarantee you if you put all of your focus into stopping that 1 kid someone else on that team will beat you.

I would focus on stopping him, i don't believe they have anyone else this year that is capable of carrying the load. What you said could be true in the weak region they play in but they will not go deep in the playoffs.

Doubt it.

It's funny when USJ was good you never saw this type of smack on here. Talk up your kids, but don't talk down on the others!

TCA wins to start a miserable season for USJ....again

I know for a fact he has been verbally offered by 5 BCS schools. Yes you are correct he cannot get anything in writing until Sept 1 of his Junior year but you can be verbally offered. He went to 2 different camps this summer and was told by both Tennessee and Georgia coaches that he was good enough to offer but they don't offer kids that early. People can take it's for what's it's worth but that's the facts of the matter.

 

 

I think that you need to check your facts because lets say that someone did tell him that that particular school would give him a scholarship, it wouldn't be anyone that has any say in scholarships at all because its illegal to talk to any of the coaches so yeah, your wrong about that. he is a little lack in size and would need to put on mass not just weight to have any kind of chance to play for any BCS team, which is a little bit of a stretch. And as for the comment about him possibly being recruited as a LB, that is the biggest joke i've ever heard.

JB is a great player. TCA has several players this year "capable of carrying the load". Just wait. You will see. We do not select our region, so don't play that card. As for playoffs, that is a long way off. TCA will leave it all on the field every game. Where that takes us will be a fun ride for the players and fans.
