[Hoot Gibson]

Dustin Caldwell never attended JCHS.

Dustin Caldwell's attendance at PHS is no reflection on the JCHS football program, I would not allow him to play football until last year when he and his father just simply put me in my place, he is now playing the sport he has always loved and should have been allowed to play. (my mistake, not his)

We live at 125 Euclid Avenue, Paintsville KY 606/793-3431. (yes, we used to live at Flat Gap). Any discussion of my son can be directed to this address or phone number. His father will be happy to take care of your questions.

Finally, DO NOT EVER assume you know the reasons for others actions, get the facts. Dustin did not quit friday night. He may have made some mistakes but his heart is totally in football, to publicly assume he quit on his team is incorrect and unforgiveable.

Lisa, no offense was intended with my post. The reasons for you decisions are nobody's business and neither are the reasons that my wife and I sent our kids to both systems at various times. I have serious issues with both school systems and I would like to see both systems address some of those issues. If there had been a good third option available to us, our children would not have attended either high school.

Please accept my apology. I only meant to show support for your family's decision and had no intention of presuming to speak on your behalf.
