I commend sjca on their loyal team support and enjoy reading their post. This board should be a fun thing and I have the most admiration for how the represent themselves on here. Think about it, they pull for their school bigtime and aren't afraid to compliment their school or players. That's how it should be, with that being said, I have never seen them take a jab or negaitive comment about another school. I've been to many schools and sjca has as much class as any I have seen and please note I am not one of their fans.
Thank you sir.
A few comments about the incident Whoop Whoop refers to with Donelson. Donelson was at the time a Sophomore. What was left out of the account was the fact that the young man had just witnessed (as everyone did) a woman from the HHA stands beat Coach High of SJCA in the back. Donelson was upset and acting out. Donelson was reprimanded by the coach and punished by St. John's and his parents. He even wrote an apology letter to HHA. On the other end, in no way shape or form was an apology ever offered to Coach High by the woman in the HHA stands. That being said, lets learn from it and move on. Donelson today is a Sophomore at Newberry College and playing on their basketball team. He is a success story..a life turned in the right direction because of the guidance of his family and school.
Whoop Whoop - I wish you the best and hope that you can remember that we are all human and fail sometimes. We all have our methods of trying to aid and assist young people. Please feel free to visit our school, come to a game, share some food at the concession stand and spend some time. Your opinion may change.
As for the comments about KSU. I personally have no issue with KSU and enjoy his polls, etc.
I, too, will occasionally give a poll idea. I admit that I am quite biased. However, if you look at my pre-season poll this year, SJCA is not in it. We have a lot of work to do. KSU,
thanks for your insight and please do not let the opinion of one of us ruin your impression of SJCA. Please come to a few of our games, do your research, and share some of Miss Jackie's World-famous Bar-B-Que with us. Thanks for your support of SCISA athletics !!
Our school family enjoys rivalry. Sometimes comments are made that may sound negative over a message board. Please know that in no way would anyone from SJCA be meaning to even hurt the feelings of anyone.
