Been booked up for 2 years in Week 0 for a scrimmage against Portsmouth West and this is the final year of that contract. Maybe next season if they will grant a return game something can get worked out. 2016 JC can go there or SW can come to JC and in 2017 the other can return the favor. If that doesn't work, Week 1 also comes open next year. If JC is unable to find a Week 3 game then you can add that to the list of openings to choose from. Starting in 2017, Weeks 2 and 4 come open after the contacts with Lexington Catholic and Harlan County ends. Not too much to ask to get a return game which most schools that want them in a bowl game will not commit to. Boyle has done it and Lexington Catholic is doing it now. Both of those games put JC on the road in year 1 and a return game followed, negating any comments that they want a home game in year 1. When you reach out to a Clinton Massie, St. Clairsville, NewCath, Cardinal Mooney, Beechwood, Ironton, etc. it is not like you are hiding. Most teams would rather not travel 4 hours, understandably, for a non-district game when you have others in closer proximity. Lexington may bring several games JC's way going forward. I also look for Corbin to be added in the near future. Coach Haddix is a great individual and said he really enjoyed our games and wants to get them back. Have your people reach out with a 2 year deal and I'm sure something can get worked out. JC also has a nicer payout than the DMB in their RECC Bowl, reserved for the first home game of the season. They can make it worth the Warriors while if they decide to pick it up.

Potential open weeks going forward depending on contract lengths:
2016 (0, 1, 3)
2017 (0, 1, 2, 3, 4)

Team Canada traveled more than 4 hours. When is JC going there? Matney is and always will hide from quality competition. This years playoffs will show you again what happens when a team is not battle-tested:gtfo:
