If they spot Earle 28 JC ain't coming back. Earle is legit and has just as much speed as jc does

Come on d.j., epc and hazen both beat Earle, Earle is not a legit contender to beat j.c., Earle doesn't have the athletes j.c. nor the football players. I mean they couldn't even win yalls conference outright.

whoa whoa whoa now. Earle has the athletes. A lot of those kids play on one of the most talented basketball teams in 2a. They may not have as many skill players,but I promise you they got just as many athletes as j.c.

Noway, earle dresses about 28, per a comment in this thread, j.c. dresses 40 plus, you do the math. It just doesn't add up. Im not knocking Earle, but they just dont have the numbers, just like the rest of us.

[big E]

I think about 28 is what I counted.

[dragondad]

I think JC is at 51 counting the 9th graders that moved up.

[monster_island]

You don't have Hackett as a choice. They have as good a chance as 8 of the choices that you did list.

[leedog95]

JC town has 800 people and 51 kids playing how is this?? Earle has 3,200 and half of Parkin 1,500 kids and they dress 28-30.. Man something is wrong with that...With a even coach matchup on a neutral field Earle would take JC!!! But if you play JC in JC you are not winning just ask CC.

Numbers don't always mean anything...11 on 11. If the 11 you put on the field have the mentality as well as the drive to compete and give it all every snap to defeat the guy across from them, it a football game regardless the outcome. Most people have no chance simply because they feel like they have no chance. They lose before the game is played.

Just being honest

Every roster I've been able to find shows Earle has 38 players in 10-12th, not sure how many 9th graders.   JC has 37 in 10-12th and 14 9th graders. 7th - 12th grade enrollment is pretty much equal between the two schools, approx 300, and yes that includes the LA kids at JC.

Perhaps your question should be why Earle has such a large population but such a small school enrollment. Could it be that a large portion of the students are going somewhere else? Or could it be that you have athletes walking the halls that refuse to play football.

Until your 11 get tired and the other team is rotating players keeping them fresh. If there was a rule that said "you can't substitute", then you could be equal, but there is not. So depth is where they get ya.

It's not necessarily the number of kids in the school it's how many will buy into your program. JC hasn't always had that many players. Coach Carpenter has had a lot to do with the turn out of players. Yes we have a lot of depth but it's hard to sub the equal of a Jamario Bell, Taylor Mason, Armstrong, Holyfield, and Dancy but we try. We also have are share of players on the bench who have the heart but not the talent, but who are there contributing at every practice.......

[leedog95]

I don't think Earles 7th--12th enrollment is 300 kids. That's more like their 1st---12th enrollment.

I think JC will pretty much cruise through the playoffs to the title. I just think they've got way too much for any AA team this season. Next season might be a different story though. JMO

With the loss of 10-12 seniors you could very well be right. The whole backfield and over half of the offensive and defensive line. A lot of key players in the secondary also. JC will be reloading for sure next year. Teams like England who starts mostly soph. will be your competitive teams the next few years...........

Yes Hazen is better than last year. We only won 8-0 last year, IF we catch a couple open passes this year, its a lot closer than 20-0 they won by.  We got to play several underclassmen last year and they have continued to improve this year. We play several jrs.

Read the whole discussion, it was about the number of athletes Earle has compared to the number j.c. has. My comment was, back to him where he said Earle has just as many as j.c. thats when i said "no way", Earle only dresses 28 compared to j.c.s 40 plus which is really 50 i believe. So thats almost 2 to 1 in j.c. favor. So im sure j.c. has more athletes just because they dress close to twice as many kids. Im in no way doubting that earle dresses 28. Im sure with our 9th graders moved up des arc is dressing over 30.

Where i said they dont have the numbers like the rest of us, des arc included, im saying  j.c. is the only one dressing close to 50. I don't think any of the rest of us 2a schools dress that many.

I think we'll lose 10-12 seniors this year, some are very key players, but the second string are pretty good players. We should still be very competitive. I think we dressed out 37 at most games and now we have 14 freshman dressing out for a total of 51.

Sure it will Dragon, JC's trouncing of that 09 Bearden team is proof coach C knows how to get ready for any one, and we ain't Even gonna talk about trashing last year.

[bleudog]

Yes it was years ago but they really won that game...Anyone that was at that game not from JC knows that!!!!

Memories of the first image I ever posted on FF:

Are you sure the CC receiver did not score before the last play?  Also, did the runner not score again on the lat play?  Looked very close.  Of course, the field was not marked very good, so who could tell?  Looked like a poor call by the refs gave JC the game.

Just looked at the tape.

Official was right on top of the second to last play.  Easter got the receiver by the foot on about the five and Cook made sure he was down before stumbling in.  No doubt about the last play either.  That play lost at least a yard. 

Unless CC was trying to catch JC out of position, a spike might have been a better option.

My hat's off to CC.  They played with heart and never gave up.  Made JC's defense work hard all game.

Should have never come down to that last drive though.  JC probably averaged over 5 yards a rush; but due to penalties, kept themselves in 1st/2nd and 15+ situations all night.  First downs lost due to holding calls.  JC touchdown called back on a strange blocking below the waist call.   

[the_whitester_21]

Probably the greatest game in my opinion. That Cc-Jc game

[The_Devil_Himself]

JC town has 800 people and 51 kids playing how is this?? Earle has 3,200 and half of Parkin 1,500 kids and they dress 28-30.. Man something is wrong with that...With a even coach matchup on a neutral field Earle would take JC!!! But if you play JC in JC you are not winning just ask CC.

Every roster I've been able to find shows Earle has 38 players in 10-12th, not sure how many 9th graders.   JC has 37 in 10-12th and 14 9th graders. 7th - 12th grade enrollment is pretty much equal between the two schools, approx 300, and yes that includes the LA kids at JC.
