Sounds like there will be a lot of passes. JC's qb is pretty good, but he lost a heck of a receiver from lastyears team.

 

No doubt about that Godwin will be sorely missed on this team, you don't replace a kid like that in a small town like Gainesboro but there are others like Ethan Kirby, Hobie Leonard and Blake Bowman that are very capable of helping Goad out in the passing game. Godwin will be missed as much or more on the defensive side of the ball. He basically shut down one side of the field, so its going to be intersting to see how JC does this year. They lost some other very good seniors but the cupboard isn't bare, with Goads return at QB and a little luck i could see them back in the playoffs again! Go Big Blue!

I liked the fact that Jackson County made the playoffs last year. It's typically losing team that is on the rise. Same thing goes with the baseball team as well. When I was starting out in baseball, Jackson County was usually a win on our schedule. Even though they had it tough in AA early on, they still would have finished at best 3rd or 4th in A at the time. Monterey still consistantly wins 7a, but you can always count on Jackson County in their competing for the title. Some of the talent that has come through would make any coach want to quit, but Coach King has stuck with it all these years and was rewarded last year, I believe no coach is more deserving.

 

With that said it'll be tough for JC to make it back to the playoffs, because JC, Monterey, Clay County, and Watertown are usually pretty even and when you have powerhouses like Gordonsville, TC, and FCS that you have to play it makes it tough for the average team, like those 4 I named, to make it to the playoffs on a consistant basis. Jackson County has some athletes left to make the run, and it'll be interesting to see those 4 compete with each other this year.

Im pulling for Jackson in this one, but I think Sunbright will be too much for them. I was informed that the QB from Jackson was NOT going to be eligible because of TSSAA Eligibility Regulations with his moving and participation with another program, which I believe was out of state. Heard this from multiple creditable sources. Anyone know the facts of this? Maybe someone from TSSAA can clear this up for us. TC1

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
