Did you know...Jefferson hasn't made the IHSA State Playoff field since 1993? Jefferson had made the state playoffs in 8 out of 9 seasons between 1984 and 1993.
Top Impact Player for Jefferson in 2016? The J-Hawks have some talent back this fall. Senior QB/DB James Dunner has size and good speed and tools and will continue to draw recruiting looks this summer and fall.
Biggest Concern heading into 2016? Can the J-Hawks change/improve the the overall environment for football at Jefferson? It's been a long time since Jefferson last won a game (Weeks 8 and 9 in the 2012 season).
EDGYTIM's Way Too Early Take on the 2016 Jefferson J-Hawks? Head coach Ken Dubose is one of the good guys who has worked at several different levels of football. Dobose is all in on turning the J-Hawks program around and it will be interesting to see if this program can break it's 36 games losing streak and take some positive steps in 2016.
EDGYTIM's Way Too Early regular season record prediction for Jefferson? 2-7/1-8
