First time I've watched joplin this season... dang. At least half if not more of the 14 touchdowns have been 1 play. Its 61-10 at half.

Not enough JC fans to even represent all the cheerleaders. I realize it's a long drive and they are the 8 seed but still you dont watch your kids last football game??

the joplin attendance should be much better than this,pitiful actually for our ranking and district game. i realize its cold and jet hd is keeping some at home but damn.
 
I left at halftime. I think the attendance will be much better next week.
 
Who wants to drive 4 hours and sit in the cold to watch a team that probably couldn't beat most schools Freshman B teams? They have earned their ranking of 32 out of 32 Class 6 teams.
Should have started the running clock at the opening kickoff or ask Joplin to play only JV. That may have kept the score down. Maybe.
What a tremendous embarrassment to the school and the city.

Tough times for sure.
 
JC should start looking for a successful coach to return that program back to glory; Maybe they can lure the Blair Oaks coach to town. . .

Terry Walker was 37-3 when he left Blair Oaks. then has two losing season at JC. Ted Lepage was 3-7 when the JC folks ran him off then he won a state title his 1st season back at BO........there is obviously a down turn of talent at Jeff City right now.

Exactly, talent matters, not saying it's all that matters. But a lot of people at Jeff City don't understand that.
To put it in even more perspective, Ted LePage is 59-3 his last 5 years at Blair Oaks (49-1 his last 4 years), and obviously they're still playing this year, and will more than likely add a few more wins onto that total. He has two state titles, 5 conference titles and 5 district titles, with another chance of winning a state title this year.
To look at it even further, the last 5 years under LePage and 3 under Walker, 8 years total. Blair Oaks is 96-6, two state titles, 2 semifinals, 2 quarterfinals, 8 conference titles and 8 district titles. Ted LePage and Terry Walker weren't and aren't the problems at Jeff City.

Congrats to one of the top players in the nation, Zach Westmoreland of Joplin High School Football, on his decision to officially commit his talents to the Saluki Football program at Southern Illinois University! Included is his personal statement:

This was my response: I mean , Zach is a stud ..but one of the best players in the nation ? Come on dude . I'm not sure he's the top player on Joplin this year let alone "one of the top players in the nation" he's definitely great ..maybe top 3 in Southwest Missouri...if he was "one of the top players in the nation " he wouldn't be going to SIU. He's definitely good though but have some perspective

Eh, IMO Westmoreland is definitely the best football player in SW Missouri. I think SIU is getting a steal.

You mean the Joplin media outlet should remain unbiased, professional and respectful like your Webb City media outlet? I agree.

SIU definitely got a good one. 3 sport athlete, can play either side of the ball . I actually expected Davis and Westmoreland to get better offers than they did.
 
He'll end up at Pitt in 2 years. I'd take Davis over him every day of the week and there's been several receivers in SWMO the last 15 years who are just as good as he is.

I disagree. He's one of the best I've seen . Kiente Hardin may have been better but they are both freakishly good.
