cvillecat Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Very impressive numbers!!!! Congrats to this young man on a very good year and only being a Junior the state will get another chance to see his talent. Work hard in the classroom as well as on the field and you will have a bright future.:thumb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailToTheChief Posted November 27, 2006 Author Share Posted November 27, 2006 Great season for Cole and the rest of the Jumpers.... Question: Who is going to be the QB throwing to Cole next year?? That is a question mark right now. There are a few people that could step up. Deaton's shoes will be hard to fill but I'm sure someone will rise to the challenge.

HailToTheChief Posted November 27, 2006 Author Share Posted November 27, 2006 I will definitely try very hard to see this kid play a game next season. Sounds like a special talent. Is he getting any looks from colleges yet? Yes, he is getting looks from a lot of D1 schools. Nobody has offered yet but they have shown some interest. Seeing how he is just a junior I'm sure he'll be getting offers this off season. He will definitely play D1 football. No doubt in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADopted ADmiral Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 I watch this kid play against Danville eariler in the season and he made some nice catches! I think he is the best receiver in the state! Congratulations Mr.Cole on a great season! Goodluck in the future!:thumb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorTraveler Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Congrats John, This kid has the BEST Hands I have ever seen on a High Schooler. He always seemed to make the tough catches look easy. Hats off also to Ross Deaton who made all of those throws. Great season Briar Jumpers we are all proud of you!!!! Do you remember a kid by the name of Allen Sexton? Three-time All-State at the same position. Had the best hands of anyone I've ever seen, including Cole. Cole had a great season and is destined to make an impact next year and the years to come. What's it look like for next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gchs_uk9 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 6 foot tall, 4.4 speed I'm not sure he's 6 ft and I doubt he has 4.4 speed, but none the less he is incredibly fast. He is an outstanding wide receiver and should put up solid numbers again next year. Also, don't forget that John Cole is also one of the best baseball players returning this year in the 12th Region.

Brewsky Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Being a "tad" short, can he play DB at the D1 level? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not certain on his measurements but I know that he recorded a 4.4 at the Notre Dame camp this summer. He seems faster to me than Norman and Newell were last year. p.s. The Cats Pause also had him as the 9th ranked basketball player in the region. Definitely an incedible all around athlete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norman and Newell were both 4.6 speed kids so yes he is faster. John is 6 foot, 165 lbs. and still has time to grow. The other guys in his family are a little taller so he'll probably gain a couple of inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewsky Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Cole will need to gain 20 lbs over the summer IMO. 165 simply doesn't get a kid a D1 scholly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumperPride Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Great year and I think he seems to be getting better every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MountainThunder Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 He is probably about 5'10" to 5'11" and about a 4.5 in the 40. But this kid has so many other things that make him even better. He plays smart. He plays hard. He has GREAT hands. He runs great routes. He adjusts to his QB when he is on the run He gets open. He is one of the best HS recievers I have seen and his numbers are an indicator of how good he really is! Congrats on the record young man! Everybody knew who Deaton was going to throw to and they still couldn't stop him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
