Re: Should they eliminate JH Football????
It's ok man, I can ask what a persons thoughts are on a subject they posted. Curious if a school is trying to do away with JH football. Especially given you haven't offered anything to the subject. Didn't realize that someone can ask everyone's thoughts on a subject but provide no insight and if asking what they're insight on it is a problem then by all means don't click the subject.comebacker wrote: ↑Thu Dec 14, 2017 10:42 pmBackoff man.

If you ask me this thread was started and being continued by a bunch of commie kickball lovers. No good American in their right mind would want this. This is worse than kneeling during the National Anthem. That said, CB seems like a douchebag to me.
Re: Should they eliminate JH Football????
Trimble had to pick up multiple games this year because of mid season in the league cancellations. The Hocking Division Jr. High competition level is very sad. With that said, time will take care of this issue. Kids will eventually come through and even out the competition. Never give up on football! Too many life lessons that kids carry on forever.

Tcat1 and O and B I hope you guys are right and this year was an anomaly but, I fear it isn't.
A lot of the schools in the Hocking have lost a bunch of kids and I wonder if it ever bounces back?
It is out of our hands so to speak so lets hope for the best but I think both of your schools will have to be flexible to fill out your JH schedules.

I would suggest taking a walk down the hallways of Jackson Middle School Gymnasium and after looking at the walls ask yourself if you think that program is going to be eliminated.

The year before we had a Combined team and this past year we had enough for 2 teams.fortdawg wrote: ↑Wed Dec 20, 2017 7:11 am Tcat1 and O and B I hope you guys are right and this year was an anomaly but, I fear it isn't.

This season the Bucks should have 2 teams again. It's definitely a struggle at the Jr high level in Southeastern Ohio.
Even schools that have both 7th and 8th grade teams, they struggle to find games because so many have combined teams.
I'm hoping that regional Championship will bring a few more kids out to play at the Jr high level.

Why would anyone want to cancel it , its a 100% guarantee of how the HS team will be ??
Re: Should they eliminate JH Football????
Logan had around 55 boys out for football. The soccer team counting JV might have had 30 that makes 85 boys. 425 boys left...so what do they do. Just think how much better the basketball team and wrestling would be if we didn't have the bowling team.

Re: Should they eliminate JH Football????
And Burg is a smaller school than Logan. Try another avenue for Logan’s demise as of late.
Re: Should they eliminate JH Football????
We’re talking about smaller schools. I’m speaking about the TVC Hocking. The Burg and Logan will be fine. D7 schools in our area may start to have issues in the near future.
Re: Should they eliminate JH Football????
My 2 cents...
I loved playing Junior High football.....I was 5' 10" 170 pounds and I could outrun most, if not all, players...
I was responsible for multiple injuries to other players.....legal hits...
However, my body - mostly my brain - is paying the price for playing from the age of 7 until college.
The brain was not made to take that type of punishment through repetitve contact over time.
CTE (ChronicTraumatic Encephalopathy) is real. Dozens of studies are taking place that will eventually provide evidence to stop full contact football before a certain age. A football player can get CTE without having played college or pro football. CTE is about repetitve blows not just the force of impact of a college or pro player.
