The tears won’t stop falling after hanging up the phone. I just got a FaceTime call from my girl @avajones_35 and it literally made my day. Words cannot describe how I feel right now. Look at God!! @SW_Elite_ @wheatstateelite @AustinJ22228543 @espnW @IowaWBB

- People told @avajones_35 she wouldn’t be one of the best in the state. She is. Said she wouldn’t play high major. She did is. Said she wouldn’t be one of the best in the country. She is. Said she wouldn’t make it through the night. She did. I’d stop telling her what she WONT do!!
- I think that we should look at having 1A-3A and 4A-6A all in one location. I think it would create a better atmosphere and kids would love this opportunity. Idk how it would look logistically but would be cool if it could work out that way.
- Thank you Hayden for everything. I will love you forever. This next chapter is a blessing. I am excited to say the least. Thank you @ADShawLawFS I am looking forward to working with you. @fshssports @FSHSBasketball. #GoState
- This is one of many issues I have with @KSHSAA. We spend so much time worrying about things that don’t matter, rather than addressing the issues that are glaring. We can’t be happy for teammates anymore. What’s next no high 5’s cause it offends other teams not scoring?
- I feel like @KSHSAA should REALLY consider taking a page from state track and have All classes for state basketball in the same location.
- Welcome to the world young king!! Zade Kenneth Cinelli- Paul.
00:00 - What happen to the days of you EARN playing time in practice?? When did it become “ok” for you to miss practice but complain about not starting or playing? We have such a soft, entitled society man. Parents we gotta be better. Kids LEARN these traits, they wasn’t born with them.
- Never for clout just genuine love. @avajones_35 we been locked in since 8th grade and if anybody can do this it’s you. I promise you hun imma make sure to keep supporting. @wildcats_hayden believes in you.
- I love it when people count @avajones_35 out and say what she WONT do. You must not know this women. If she put her mind to it she WILL do WHATEVER she chooses in life. Always got you Ava. Promise that!!
- I would 100% hope and pray that @KSHSAA considers having 4/5/6A playoffs in emporia at emporia state. No other environment compares. EVERY GAME would sell out. These kids would LOVE the atmosphere. If you never played there when it’s sold out it’s 2nd to NONE!!
- 1800 kids in the portal and ALL OF YALL think you gonna find a home? We are raising a VERY soft society by allowing them to quit and run at first sign of adversity. All these kids and you expect me to believe it’s ALL the coaches fault?!? Naw man!!
