[Hoot Gibson]

I seen Jude, Grimm, and Blanton all play.

On the field, Blume was the best RB in the 2 games I watched him. Kid was a stud.

Blume was a good back, but he was not in the same class as Jude. Jude was hands down the best offensive player ever to play at JC and he was among the very best defensive players to play for the Golden Eagles.

A couple of players who I don't think have been mentioned yet are Jesse Peck and Blake Johnson. Peck may have been the most athletically gifted lineman to ever play for JC. As a heavyweight wrestler, Peck was ranked in the top five nationally in his weight class. He was big, strong, agile, and fast.

Johnson Central was wearing out Cov Cath's interior defense until he went down with a season ending injury. After Johnson left the field, the Colonels rolled on to the 2006 state 3A title. Johnson was as good a linebacker as he was a fullback.
