Miami norland football team awaiting punishment on playing with suspended players.

So my question is....If Norland has to forfeit to AHP, Does that mean I get rewarded the win on my pickems? Cause I took AHP! I'm close to the bottom I need every win possible! lol @nolebull8136 points -

OHS KOWBOYS vs LAKE WALES HIGHLANDERS
DarterBlue2 and 3 others reacted to MarkECannon for a topic
Kowboys starting to pound the interior of Lake Wales line 7-3. Early 2nd quarter. Halftime LW up 10-7. Kowboys have made a lot of mistakes. Lake Wales passing attack has led to their 3 point advantage. Kowboys TD drive was when they primarily ran between the tackles. Lake Wales can score quickly via the air. 1:15 left in 3rd. Kowboys drive about 80 yards in their classic ball control style. Kowboys up 14-10. As soon as I stopped typing Kowboys block punt and recover it in the end zone. Now up 21-10. 20 yard TD pass puts Osceola up 28-10. They have controlled the tempo pretty much the whole game. 8:30 left. LW passes it way down the field to make the score 28-17 Kowboys. Osceola running out the clock. Osceola 28 Lake Wales 174 points -

Should have an easier outing next week vs Lakewood at home, then will get 2 weeks of both rest and preparation for the playoffs. Schedule appears to be headed for the regional game between OHS and Armwood, but not taking any game for granted.3 points -
Game went as I expected as it would be competitive but LW wouldn't score more than 14 points and that might have been the case if not for questionable PI late in the game that led to their last TD. Did get our big OL back as he got good reps throughout the game and pound the rock was the difference. Thanks for your take and would have enjoyed seeing you again. Recommending the LW vs Columbia game only made sense if you wanted to be on the winning side. Local paper (Lakeland Ledger) and the Polk'sters all were wrong.3 points

I think this really shows us what we have in our society that people are upset that a potential cheater was told on instead of BEING PISSED THAT SOMEONE CHEATED IN THE FIRST PLACE People rather defend the cheater because winning above all else runs people's mindsets then they sit there and whine about trophy chasing in a society mess THEY CREATED People create the problems that they bitch about3 points -

So far I’m hearing norland will have to forfeit games and face a 1 year postseason ban starting this year. I’ll keep you posted as I find out more.3 points -

Interesting…….Couple things if it’s true: *Who blew the whistle? AHP? No one knows South Florida football, like South Florida! * Norland expelled from the playoffs? I don’t think so. FHSAA hates to cross the WPB border, entering in So Flo, to try & stop the runaway train!!! Hand slap! * So Flo feels impervious to the impotent & weak arm of the FHSAA, so they’re gonna do what they want!!!3 points -

I spoke to Josh and he has much more important things going on in his life right now. He is not doing the pick ems for the rest of the way. But he did say if he was, he would always pick Apopka2 points -

How is Josh doing so badly this year? Has he not been submitting his picks? I thought he got special privileges.2 points -
Should be a very competitive game between two solid teams. Both want and need the win to bolster the resume in the playoff rankings to get some home field edge in the early rounds. Osceola has had a solid 10 days by overwhelming Viera 49-9 to clinch the district, then on 2 days rest defeating Apopka at their place 14-6. See we are in the PickEms this week and thanks to those of you showing us some love. It is a road game but our kids look up to the challenge. I am out of state visiting family but will certainly be following the NFHS telecast. GO KOWBOYS!!2 points

Never been but a few people I know used to go back when Pahokee and GC were perennial state powers. Literally the entire city of Belle Goades went to the game. Cheers and have a great time. I know GC is playing good ball this year. Not sure how Pahokee is doing2 points -

It’s still under investigation on how many games this took place, but reports show that suspended players for the Viking football team played against American heritage. in the past teams that was penalized for such act was banned from postseason play for that year, forfeit of games & hefty fines. not sure what the Viking penalties will be , but this a all around a terrible situation for norland football program as the postseason is just around the corner.2 points -

Districts only matter to the winners who gets the automatic spot. After that straight rankings and districts mean nothing to anyone else. A team like McCarthy is above .500 and loses came against strong teams that really boost there SOS. So, 4 wins and loses to top teams are much better in the computer system then most the #2s from the other districts in region 4A. I am sure Garcia's is horrible for example and they play Northeast still, so even if they win that it will hurt their points even more beacuse Northeast is a bad 1 win team. It pays to play +.500 teams even if just hang around just about .500 yourself. 3 Games left though. Some of it will just sort itself out and teams records will drop.2 points

And for a team like Windermere, who will never win a state championship, it is better to go 10–0 as an independent then go 5–6 and lose by 40 in the first round every year.2 points -
Planning on going to Traz Powell tomorrow....
Cat_Scratch and one other reacted to JDHoss for a topic
We made the trip down from Fort Pierce to this one. It went smoothly until we hit Broward, and then it was a white knuckle ride from there as the rush hour(s) traffic started to pick up. We ate at Havana Harry's in Coral Gables. I highly recommend this place, but the parking is a little tight (I was driving a RAM 1500) and the portions are ENORMOUS. After supper, it took us about 45 minutes to travel the 14 miles to Traz Powell. That's a nice facility. Good game, but the wind was crazy and played havoc with the passing and kicking games for both teams. Columbus missed an early opportunity with a deep pass that the WR dropped, but NW had the better team. They are big, physical and have plenty of speed. They put a little freshman in at RB named Deuante Gatlin who only got 2 or 3 carries, but he looks so explosive. Anyway, we had a great time and I liked listening to the old timer NW fans discussions during the game. We'll definitely make another trip for a game there. We wound up getting a room in Kendall because my night vision isn't what it used to be, and we had breakfast the next morning at a solid no frills Cuban cafe called Munchies, and then grabbed some churros to take back home at Pinecrest Bakery. Those things hit the spot for a Friday night postgame snack after watching Westwood v Inlet Grove.2 points -

OHS KOWBOYS vs LAKE WALES HIGHLANDERS

Now I know why I haven’t seen you Ray. I’m the guy that was with Darter at the Jones game. It’s a beautiful night. Hopefully see you next time.1 point -
I think Lake Wales did a good job scheduling this season. Seminole and Jones are state title contenders. Their light schedule last season really hurt them come playoff time. I think LW bounces back from last week. I’m going to swap scores from you. 21-14 Lake Wales1 point

I think the 2 hour drive would be worth it to watch this clash! Highlanders at home have a solid homefield advantage. They’ve come up short on the road vs their 2 toughest games, but weren’t overwhelmed. They’re a hard out. Kowboys looking solid, especially that D(I can only go by the numbers)! Last time I went to a Lake Wales game, they clobbered Columbia in the playoffs. They jumped on the Tigers fast! Kowboys gotta be ready soon as they get off the bus! Playing with the numbers( SOS, HF, O, D, Common opp etc….) I’ve got the Kowboys by a hair. Haven’t seen either team this year so eye test is eliminated in my pick!1 point

This is why you should always go independent rather than 0-10 with a district schedule. I've seen plenty of teams go independent after heavy attrition, have a couple of winning seasons against light competition to rebuild, and then go on to win a district title or winning season when they came back to the FHSAA. The teams that don't go independent though can never seem to break that bad cycle they're in.1 point -

Looks like Dunbar vs Port Charlotte and Jones vs Lake Wales was played this past week after it was postponed so it went past the deadline as a week 8 game and was never added to the week 9 list so it doesn’t count. These are the only official winners from week 8 Chaminade Lake Mary Mosley Ponte Vedra Norland Arnold1 point -

Or the private schools will use their combination of private money and public money (i.e., vouchers) to hire away the best teachers, leaving the rest at the public schools to teach those who don't have the resources -- even with the vouchers -- to send their kids to private schools. Of course, if this happens, there might be a few folks who will brag that it all worked out the way it was planned.1 point
