So far in 2011, no Brittany, Zanette, Mae Mae, Ashlei, Tara, Charlotte, Vicky, or Mea. Don't know much about the upcoming sophomores.That was nearly the main ones from the 2009-2010 squad that I was hoping would be back for their senior and junior years! :( Hopefully the summer tryouts change this, for Charlotte and Mae Mae.
Brittany will not be returning, Hopefully by the summer she has a change in heart. I wish she would return because I remember when she was captain for Whitehaven Ms.Jones was what i Lived for she gave me life and as a freshman J-sette she still had it!!! Wish she would get it back up and keep up her grades and dance at the same time thats only what is stopping her.
@futureomega Same thing i said! I wish rules wouldn't apply to her! lol i hate hateeee hate it!!! I guess she did what was best for you, happy for her tho!! I was anticipating for her to be captain since day one!! :\\\
@futureomega Has the new captain been named for the upcoming season? I'm sad Mea won't be dancing either. Already missing Ketta now Mea. I'm going to be devastated if Ashley doesn't return for her senior year. Any word on Zanette or Brittany returning to the squad?
@dreboy28 Someone said that Miranda would be captain. It's three Juniors now, Miranda, and the twins. But I think Miranda could hold it down for two years.
@futureomega I was watching the tryout videos and read that Miranda, Tara and Charolette all got cut. Asheli and Vicki aren't going to trying out. So that leaves twin Charlene to be the front runner for captain but who knows what Ms. Worthy will do.
Next year is going to be something interesting . . . & after Mea & Ashlei gone, it gonna be a tough captain decision with the current sophomores (Mae Mae, Twins, Zanetta, Brittany, & Vickie, if they all return) & will be seniors together.
i believe sum are discrediting the past cpts....since there have been J-SETTES each cpt was good and brought their own unique style in ....marquise loving 1993,i forgot 1994 , 1995 erica, i forgot 1996, 1997 was renee and rasheeda, 1998-99 Dr afrachanna butler,2000-01 aquitta patilla, 2002-03 nykeyla(sp) 2004 nadia dale, 2005-06 jasma huddleston, 2007 socky,2008 chloe ashley,2009-10 shanketta newsome....and i know alot more ...
she wasnt going to fast sounds travels slow across a distance especially when its recorded.....if u knida notice in early j-sette dance links on here it seems the are either a half count fast or slow from the song thats playing.....as far as every cpt all of them that u all named brought different elements to their squads each had their unique style......but i see alot of yall on here are new to being J-SETTE FANS....i forgot who posted this comment but i agree
ok here are your facts....shanketta didnt let mea lead...its tradition that was the last game of the season all seniors go on the field during 5th quater and do a farewell dance to"happy feeling" while all section leaders are on the field the next in commands lead..mea is a junior and is a candidate for cpt(which she is not taking b\c she is running for MISS JSU) ...mea was on count and on point noticed how she threw a good ending stand routine to finish out the song.
I HATE HOW EVERYBODY IS HATING ON JASMA.....FIRST OFF JASMA WAS TOO ME THE BEST DAM J SETTE CAPTAIN THERE WAS..SHE WAS A GREAT DANCER AND HEEL OF A CAPTAIN..SHE TOTALLY WORKED IT IN THE STANDS.....BUT ITS SO TRUE WEN SOMEBODY IS JUS THAT GOOD AT SOMETHING ALL PLL GONE DO IS HATE.....THE GURL TOPPED CHANNA AND ALL THE REST EVEN KETTA IM SORRY BUT JASMA WAS THE SHYT!!!!!!!!
@ubttrwerk 2002 started off slow for me but when 2003 came around nakela was on. I saw them in person in indy. Some of the best jsettes was on that line from 2000-2004
@arethafan channa might have created them but quita as captain executed them better, sometimes it doesnt matter who created somrthing what matters most is how it presented. My favorite captains were QUITA,CHLOE,JASMA,KettaAND Nikela were exceptional i cant really say Channa because i got interested in them Quita,s first year.
Don't forget he isn't right next to the band so there is an echo that the person recording is catching. From where he is it may APPEAR slightly off when she is actually in sync with the music. The timing on the other videos where ketta is leading is very similar.
Im very mad ya'll got Jasma at the bottom of yall ranks. Jasma is almost like Shanketta. Only thing Shanketta got better her second year, Jasma pretty much lost entrance her second year. She was still one of the best dancing captains. Socky was 2. Chloe did good in the ace spot, but turned 2 be boring in the captain spot. There was no energy!! She didnt even smile anymore
@jsuification that's because the camera isn't next to the band, sound travels so it's arriving to the camera slower than it would if the recorder were right beside the band. Just like the get ready videos we see from other uploaders. She's not off, there are some more videos from beside the band from other people.
@ubttrwerk Could you name some routines Quita created? The only routines that stood out were Swoop and I Go To Work and i thought Channa created those.
@arethafan2006 quitta did 2001 "all for you" done once , cold hearted snake/hit em style. let it whip if im not mistakin i may be wrong because the choreography come from within..the J-SETTES have current and alumni J-SETTES help out with choreographing routines so its kinda hard to put it on just 1 particular sette with specific routines
We should stop judging who is or was the best captain! Each captain contributed something that propeled the J-Settes as a squad foward!! Hats off to you all cause I know it had to be a challenging and rigorous process!!
I never saw what the big deal was with Nakela, she had them in sync as far as stands go but besides crazy in love and 7 day weekend i dont like anything else about her, ppl can hate on jasma but she really pushed the j settes into what we are used to now
I just hope mea leadership is good as her dancing but we will see next year i mean i love the hell out of mea but dancin n leadership is two different things n but this video she looks like a good leader....work mea lol
Im mad yall got Chloe down near the bottom. To me she was one of the best... Those Stillman, CCC and Boombox Classic clips from 2008 will STAY in my favorites. I think if she had another year she would have definitely been a beast but she did an excellent job. Think about this though... we watched Chloe for 3 years then she had her year out front and did the damn thing, now we're about to watch her LITTLE SISTER do the SAME THING... Think i'm playin? Click play and watch it again!!!
@jboyfreshVUU I agree about Chloe. She brought Grace back to the squad. 2006 was a major decline for the J-settes with an overload of stunts that didnt flow well with the dancing. Socky took out alot of the stunts and Chloe added grace and versatility back to the squad. Ketta reign was a renaissance period for the J-settes and they were restored to their former glory.
1.Channa 2.Quita 3.Nakela 4.Nadia Look at the footage when they were captains the jsettes could not be messed with at all, they were all on point from looks, field routine, and stands. In my opinion, a good captain is not about how well you dance(even though these women without a doubt could) but your ending product.
5. Shanketta
6.Socky-I give her so much credit becuz she had a squad with A LOT of new girls and the ending product I thought was good for the circumstance
Jasma was by far the worst captain in the last ten years. She was a great dancer but i dont think her leadership skills matched. I would have liked to have seen Terra as captain in 2005 or Janear(spelling) and socky in 2006 and 2007.
@c00ki3nikki You think Socky, Chloe, and Jasma were better captains than Ketta? I cant name one routine they did that could stand up to anything that was done in 98 or 99.
MY TALLY OF THE BEST CAPTIANS EVER OF J-SETTE #1. SHANKETTA #2.AFRASHONDA #3.JASMA AND TO COME MRS MEA SHE IS GOING TO EAT NEXT YEAR WATCH AND SEE MEA MOM WAS A JSETTE CAPTAIN HER SISTER WAS TOO AND NOW HER CANT GET NO BETTER THAN THAT
@ubettrwerk actually aquita did that as well went back to her old spot to let nikela have her time to shine, she even went on to give Nikela a hug at the end of her song, so this just goes to show that the jsettes are just one of those dancelines that appreciate the art of dancing and each other.
man everytime i watch this i just want shanketta to stay she impress me everytime i watch her and watching just puts me more in her favor she is great
I was going to say that Mea showed out because she was leading but she's been dancing like that since she started lol. My hat goes off to Shanketta...you are truly one in a million.
OMG!!! Mea lead those girls to victory!!! Great job Shanketta. You left the squad in good hands and in my opinion, your a greater captain than the one who inspired you!!! :-)
shanketta lord i miss her already damn she has been so great i might shed a tear 4 this one best captain since afrachanna work it ketta come back next year
@kaptainkrunk You ain't never lied. She was a great dancer/leader, but she was also gracious and humble. Don't know her personally, but you can just tell!
@MakingThaMost she is a facebook friend of mine, and she is very humble and positive. and hilarious, too. I'm one of the few people who hit her up saying how much she inspired other dancers like myself. she says it always brings her to tears and keeps her going even when she thought it was too much to handle. she's a great role model. and to come back after rushin the field to dance was real sweet!
@jboyfreshVUU It WAS sweet! And the fact that she took a spot in the stands to let Mea have her time to shine up front further proves how gracious she is. True leadership! The Settes are a better squad because of her. Not knocking the previous captains, but Ketta just really took the foundation the other captains helped to build and really capitalized on it. Everything just culminated with her. She truly owned and deserved the title: Captain of the Prancing J-Settes!
@MakingThaMost While under her she made the settes exciting again. Afrochanna did it and Quita. Those were the last captains I paid attention to. I like the I even liked the 2004 captain. she only had 1 year but I thought she was underrated by a lot of folks
A yr later and im bck at this video!!!! My gurlz murdered it!!! I love me some Mea and Shanketta
