yall aint no powerhouse yet big dawg slow ya roll, gotta make it to a semi finals atleast then you can say a florida powerhouse. i do understand you excited bout them boys cause the future is bright but they gotta prove it

That board is still a train wreck working on borrowed time It will get shut down eventually when someone stops paying the bills, after all their site owner doesn't even post there anymore or anywhere

Exactly that’s when you get caught slipping.

It would be one thing if I’m just hyped about this year because of the transfers & shii. but Dillard has been turning the corner & becoming this powerhouse in full for the last 3 years now. , in my opinion being a POWERHOUSE is not just decided on rings & state championship appearances. in my opinion it’s also judged on can you got to me to toe with elite STATE OR NATIONALY RANKED talent ? Dillard has done that. can you beat a state elite opponent? Dillard has done that (Columbus 2019) eventual state champion. glades central (2020) were they glades central of old ? No but still a formidable opponent. STA 2021 (23-14) lost @ STA where many felt Dillard should of won, against a national powerhouse the same place a national powerhouse in st Frances was BLOWN OUT. now as adults our opinions can differ, which is cool & what this message board is about. Even if Dillard wasn’t my alma mater seeing what they have risen to over the last 4 years I would most def call them a state powerhouse & a championship contender, will they further prove that this year we will see.

That’s yo opinion & Ima respect it. But when yo resume 36-5 over the last 4 years. with a regional final app on your resume, a championship trophy under ya resume (GRANTED IT WAS TRI COUNTY) but it still a worthy accomplishment during a trying time. We were forced as a county to forfeit from playing in the FHSAA state playoffs, where as MIAMI had a option which is crazy because dade & broward is usually on one accord with those types of decisions. NONETHELESS Am I saying dillard is a NATIONAL powerhouse ? Of course not they can prove that this year though.

I agree with you on this. In 2009 Miramar came to Traz Powell stadium and beat Central 21-14. I was sitting on Central side and all you could hear were people saying who taking the bus up, who's riding with who, what hotel we staying in, tailgating, after party, planning a parade and so on. Central looked at Miramar in my opinion as a Broward school and they can't hang with us. Point is don't overlook anyone because on any given day it can go one way or the other.

I said Jones has had trouble getting over the hump as they have come close, but no cigar yet. They played in the championship game (2019) in a loss to Northwestern recently. Then last year lost on the road to a Pine Forest team who gave Jesuit all they wanted in the championship; it was a game they should have won. Their coach Elijah Williams of Gator fame has done a very good job of not only keeping their talent, but also getting some quality transfers to bolster the roster. If the 22-23 schedule is any indication of their goal and belief it includes KOC with Northwestern, early games vs Cocoa, Duncanville (TX), Edgewater and IMG Academy, all on the road except for one. Plus Boone and Dr. Phillips along with their mandatory district games. It is going to be a long, hot summer with more movement in that "transfer portal" so we will have a better idea in mid August. Falling asleep on these guys will be a mistake.

1M will have UC and TCA and 2M will have Bolles and Ed White 3M and 4M won't have a lot of good Duval teams, at least not a state championship contender level

And they are in 3M this year along with Tampa Bay Tech and Armwood out of Hillsborough. Don't know what the Jax schools will have in that classification, but Edgewater and Jones from our region are dangerous as well. Both STA victories over Edgewater in recent championship games were very competitive. Jones is a very athletic team, talented team that has had trouble getting over the hump but on any given night is good enough to pull an upset.

Mandarin got blown out by STA Your talking about Tampa Jesuit who finished the year argubly as the best team in Florida

That reasoning with all due respect is why I feel Dillard is a step below an elite team A team like Dillard is still trying to prove they can stand on par with the STA and other elite teams in SFL so they should have seen homestead as a stepping stone and treated them as such but they let them sneak up on them and homestead made Dillard pay for it Dillard needs to remember that when your trying to reclaim the top spot that you can't let anyone else outshine you, elite teams just bury teams and take their spotlight because nothing matters except reaching the mountaintop again

I would love to play em again , the more I look at that game the more homestead was the team playing with house money. They had nothing to lose. add that playing in front of their home crowd who most def came out for once and Filled up their side. Their announcer kept the home team hyped all night. add the fact it rained all night and for some reason Dillard WRS forget how to catch in inclimiate weather, it was a perfect storm and homestead took advantage as they should have. then to add insult to injury our crowd attendance was pathetic because they didn’t want to drive a hour in constant rain to exit 1 when they was sure Dillard would be facing STA the next week & look what happen.

Hot & dead on they ass lol

I think Dillard being favored is a bit of a stretch STA has some good talent returning and their QB they will have may be one of the best to come through the school based on what I saw Dillard is a threat to STA but I will have to be convinced on the field that they deserve to be favored

We’re bloodhounds down here now lol hahahahahaha lmao lol

Lol the hate is real

Actually no I didn't Both have lost a lot of talent, Riverside graduated their best player, both QBs, best offensive weapon, several big time starting defensive players Oh and their coach left and they proceeded to lose several more players to Ed White Raines also has lost a few players and even lost a kid to Ribault last week That's the common mistake on this board, nobody is actually following the reality or the player movement of the off-season than think they know the teams in my backyard better than me

TWEEEEEEET! (Throwing the yellow flag down to the ground) "We've got a dead ball personal foul against FBGUY for taunting ColumbiaFan with a Robert E. Lee reference. 15 yards; and loss of down."

You forgot about Raines and Riverside (Robert E. Lee)
