MadCo getting drunk on that 1A wine

Do you guys keep shipping non football players to that charter school to keep MadCos “enrollment” under 600?

We beat you guys in Pahokee his SR season when he was gonna transfer back home. You guys should have more talent, since you’re a 4A school, but you don’t. We’ve sent more kids to play college football then MC has since you’ve been in 1A. Get back to me when you can match state titles and Mr. Florida award winners, NFL HOFers, and Walter Payton Man of the Year award winners.

Well it's nice that late October the fhsaa is finally attempting to plan a state championship location for a event happening in December Really would have been easier to forego the playoffs but at least they have something they trying to throw out there but honestly Bragg stadium would have been the better idea but I guess at least with doak they can use social distancing since they will be lucky to hit 20% capacity for any game

Safety is the primary concern over kick returns. It's the most dangerous play in the sport. The next major rule change likely to occur is the elimination of the kickoff all together.

I agree with the first part for sure. An imperfect system for an imperfect season. I think the brackets shake out in a way that the teams that are "supposed" to advance will regardless of where they play. Obviously, it stinks that a winless team is getting a bye but it's like that all over. Again, as a Central Florida guy I laugh because St. Cloud has a bye in 7A then they travel to what will likely be Edgewater. Osceola has a bye and it looks like they won't have much in the way of difficulty in Round 2. Dr. Phillips got jobbed though by having to travel so far. So I take the brackets for wha

Madison will sweep all the class champs from 2A to 8A and win the 2020 Nolebull Elite Bowl

Again, I think the goal was to give everybody a chance to play football games this fall without having to worry about teams playing a specific number of games against specific opponents, determining district champions and reconciling RPI's for the teams that were adversely affected in different ways by Covid. And, of course, to maintain membership. Will there be inequities? Absolutely. Will there be playoff football? It appears so. In 2020, that's a fair trade off as far as I'm concerned.

I'm surprised Louisville didn't get em

Looked like this was a rough weekend for some big names. American Heritage 41 Venice 26 Cardinal Gibbons 17 STA 10 (these guys need to play more often) Jones 31 Edgewater 13 Did I miss any? A weekend that makes High School Football great! And just for full disclosure Lakeland got it's butt kicked again Bloomingdale 39 LHS 14

If you say so....Madison probably wouldn’t have anymore had they not petitioned to move down...prior to 1A, when was their last title? Once again. This post was about a kid from Pahokee that attends Michigan. Seems like you have a “Little Man” complex, you interject MC football into any convo that has nothing to do with it and try to belittle other programs. Or maybe you know MC wouldn’t have anymore titles without 1A.

Madison can not compete with Venice in any way, shape, or form.

A sturdy limb? More like a giant redwood tree. It's almost guaranteed that at least a few playoff games will be effected by the virus.

Actually, because of the blind draw, these two teams will play each other in a play-in game . . . which Madison naturally will win.

Madison will put a running clock on Covid High School and find a cure for cancer

Yes, Jones's biggest drop off is its defensive line. Last year, Apopka literally could not run the ball on them and had to throw it (something they hardly do) to get any offensive yards. This year, Apopka moved the ball with relative ease and were it not for fumbles (one of which was clearly unforced), Jones would have lost this year's game. Edgewater has many more offensive weapons than Apopka and I would be surprised if they don't score at least 30 on Jones. I only see Jones scoring a maximum of 14-17 points on Edgewater.

Jones is about 80% of what they were a year ago. If Edgewater is as good as they were when they beat Jones last year, I expect a 14 point win or even more.

Donut high-school is located in Lake city florida. Its a 6A school mascot tigers.

Tutu Atwell (Northwestern), Javian Hawkins (Cocoa) and Jalen Mitchell(Rockledge) combine for 326 yards to beat FSU...irony.

With Jones barley scraping by in their last 2 games by 1 point on each and Edgewater coming back on a last second fumble after being out for 2 weeks. I'm going Edgewater to win with at least 25 penalties total game given the "ego" of both teams. If Edge gets some good practice in to fix passing and their awareness I'd give em 12 on Jones. Don't know if it's just the false sense of security from the Apopka game or just Wekiva being on top of it but I'm still wondering how Jones went into OT on their senior night against now 1-3 Wekiva.

You salty venice lost, I always call sta kings of Florida. Read my comments on them, I was with madison until this season ends. I don't like sta I respect them. Everyone on here knows that they run Florida.

Josh, I could see this game going either way. Interestingly, Joe Pinko's has Armwood favored by 4. Armwood has played the tougher scheduled thus far, but I guess we'll have to wait and see if that gives them an edge. I think Gaither has more depth and will have enough team speed on defense to contain Armwood's playmakers. This one could come down to who gets the ball last.

I came close to putting that game on there, but I feel like this is a game Gaither will win.

Sadly, I don't think the restrictions will be gone in Florida till a vaccine (Orlando) is widely available. Florida's cases seem to be on the rise. While current treatments available have greatly reduced fatality, it is still highly transmissible and puts a big strain on the healthcare system. Can't wait for an effective vaccine or improved treatments.

Talk to me when you can match the state titles and Mr. Florida winners. This post was about a kid from PAHOKEE, who attends the University of Michigan. Like 4 others before him, M. Odoms (WR), V. Smith (RB), B. Hawthorne (LB), and R. Ash (DT and I think is still with the Cowboys). NOTHING about Madison Co.

JM thought about transferring back to PK for his SR season (the season we played Baker, but was forfeited), but I think someone talked him out of it. We had a pretty good QB, TJ Smith (SR) that season that threw for over 3,000 yards and 30 tds, but he never got any real offers for college. He was about 6'4, 180 that season. Some of the PK coaches thought he was coming during the summer, because he was spending a lot of time back home.

I remember the Philadelphia Eagles proposed an alternative to onside kicks: To provide an alternative to the onside kick that would allow a team who is trailing in the game an opportunity to maintain possession of the ball after scoring (4th and 15 from the kicking team’s 25-yard line).

Very true. The same applies to Orlando. But if you follow the game carefully, you know. In the Orlando area, it is not always active recruiting. Some programs tend to sell themselves.

Youth football, I would agree that kickoffs will be eliminated within a year or two. High School Football might take a little longer.

No doubt there is some stacking of teams in metro Orlando. But even with that, it is not as bad as down south. There it is totally out of hand and has been even before the era of open enrollment. That is because, coaches openly recruit the kids from the pee wee leagues. There are literally no guard rails. The population density which is greater than in Orlando makes it easy even if the kid has no reliable transportation.

I didn't believe it until I saw a players instagram. He posted his class schedule. This ain't right, I cannot support it, even if it ain't recuirting like other schools do.

You have just found this out? This has been discussed on here quite often

You crazy,

I'm talking about trinity christian, Madison having a down year. Last season Madison would beat Venice.

To a degree. I don't think they made enough adjustments to their offense. But to be fair, Olympia just lacked weapons when he was there.

Assuming the virus doesn't miraculously go away immediately after the elections. (Note: This was not a political statement; no one can prove I was being sarcastic).

My laugh was more of the nervous variety. I did not intend to take humor out of our precarious position. But what you outline could easily happen.

I think kickoffs will get phased out too. Player safety is always going to be the most important thing in high school sports - as it ought to be. As for kicking extra points, I can't imagine a scenario where they move the ball back or anything right now. Some schools have teams who can't even line-up a field goal unit, let alone get a kid who can kick the ball accurately from 25-30 yards out. I just think it would help the better programs and hurt the worse ones disproportionately. But, I could also just be an old, crazy guy.

I agree with you guys on the kickoffs. Given the emphasis on safety, and the propensity for injury on kickoffs, I see them doing away with kickoffs before they change the rule to allow kicks into the end zone to be returned . . . but I don't see them doing away with kickoffs any time soon -- in large part because no one has really come up with an acceptable replacement for the onside kick as a means of trying to get the ball back after scoring a late TD in a close game. As for extra points, it's only automatic if you have a good kicker, a decent long-snapper and a decent holder. I've

The devil's advocate response to your 'bad part' scenario is that only one team can advance from the Region The two best teams are likely going to end up playing each other at some point -- what difference does it make if it's the first game or the third or fourth game. That said, I agree with your comment. In a perfect world, the two best teams would play in the Regional championship game, not in the opening playoff game. You want a bad scenario: take one of those winless teams that S1nglewing is talking about. Let's say they avoid a play-in game. Then, the team that they are sch

I can't answer for EagleEye, but the following comments may lend some perspective. Last year's game was attended by over 4,000 fans and was played with a lot of emotional intensity. Edgewater shares a boundary with Jones, among other schools, and there tends to be a lot of emotional intensity between the schools as the game (when scheduled) is played for bragging rights. Over the last 20 years or so, when Jones was down, several Jones kids have appeared on Edgewater rosters.

Madison County will line up incorrectly and still win the Ric Flair national championship

Madison County will run for president and win

Madison will beat the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl

I agree; Edgewater should win by 2-3 TDs.

If only Jesse had any built up credibility I could actually take that fourth tier insult seriously Though he destroyed that when he came on here saying Madison County could blow out Miami Central and IMG

Nope

Madco still gonna be 1a

In other words, DarterBlue wants the inside scoop! He wants to know what the F is going on!!

He big mad Columbia lost. He need to show up and say 1A madison owns Columbia
