As a former player under Coach Matney, I can and will honestly say that he would and will not ever do something intentional to hurt the JCHS program. As mentioned before it takes a rocket scientist to completely understand the KHSAA rule book anyway. Most of the posters who are on here bashing Matney and the JC program are people who have no idea of the whole story, have been humiliated by losing to one of JC's sports departments, or are afraid that they are going to get humiliated in the future. I will say that Matney can be arrogant at times, but who wouldn't be with the success he has had at JC and and past programs. I would bet money that if Coach Matney had had 4 straight losing seasons at JC this would not be such a big deal to anyone. Unfortunatly many of the town folk from across the creek from JC are in fear of losing any recognition that have ever had due to the recent announcment of BMR's retirement next year which is the only person or coach that has kept them on the map and not allowed them to be cast completely aside since the arrival of Matney at JC. We should all respect the decision of the KHSAA to put the program on probation because all this really was, was a misunderstanding.

I agree 100%!
