My personal opinion on Miramar is the coaching staff. South Florida is completely different or maybe it's the same being that I rarely keep up with Central, North and the panhandle. But yeah if you don't have the right coaching staff you won't go far. When we had Cogdell we went to states twice and pretty much owned the district except for the old glory days of Cypress Bay. Talent was consistently coming in and out. When Cogdell left we stayed optimistic but things just went worser being disqualified from the playoffs and the next year not making the playoffs. Don't you all remember how good Northwestern was, shoot you couldn't beat them to save your life and not look at them. My point is without a good coach you won't make it far.

I think for me North Florida is watered down and has been for a while now. Besides Bolles, Trinity Christian Academy and Columbia who's really a threat. I believe most of the talented schools come from Central and South Florida. I'll name a few or attempt to.

I say leave it in Orlando until some type of resolution is solved.

I'm Still not sold

@Mighty_Dillard_Panthers I think Dillard people just don't come together. I'mma use Northwestern as an example. Northwestern always show out when they do something or win something. For their 60th celebration Northwestern did a church service at New Birth and throughout the whole church all you saw was blue and gold. Football from 2006-2008 the bulls brought tons of people to Orlando and I believe about 5,000 people went with them to Texas when they played Carroll. Other instances still with football were the Orange Bowl and Soul Bowl days. I remembered Northwestern playing Central and Northwestern side was packed. Central was deep as well but not like Northwestern. I never attended any of the classic 90's games, but against Jackson you talking about record numbers 0f 20,000 and up. One year 47,000 people showed up. Now obviously not all Northwestern but half of that is darn good. I'm always browsing around being nosy and on different alumni sites you'll see comments saying as much as I hate or we hate are rival Northwestern they're always on point and don't play. I personally think Northwestern does so well because there alumni and community actually wanna do things and they have the right people in place. Who's your alumni president, do you go to the alumni meetings, do you pay your annual dues, does the alumni do alumni activities like dances, beach parties, tailgating and showing up to football games and so fourth. If none of these things are done or some why not you voice your opinion and get something started or help our what's already started.

When I stated transferring at a high rate I'm just talking about from public to privates. Kids in Miami are transferring all the time from one public to another, but from public to privates it's not that big like Broward. Also, when talking about environments it's totally different. If your home school is Northwestern or Booker T. Washington and you attend Columbus you still going back home to Liberty City and Overtown. Crime rates, murders, homelessness, prostitutes, drug holes, living in slums, housing projects and attics will still be around. Somebody who's home school is Coral Gables or Miami Beach wouldn't go through a lot of this stuff. Now don't get me wrong upper-class neighbourhoods have issues as well just not as prevalent as the black ones.

Look like Deerfield Beach gone be the 8A favorite of the south.

Mandarin hires former jaguars quarterback Quinn Gray as head football coach

Don't know schedules because they're not out but what if Dillard and Piper played this year. All this back and fourth with Piper and Dillard.

What about Ed. White from Jacksonville.

I'mma do Miami.

How do you all feel about the Tampa area. Plenty of hotels, restaurants and an amusement park Bush Gardens. Great tourist spot if you ask me I mean theirs no Mickey Mouse though lol.....

I don't like Daytona Beach Municipal Stadium because it's small. I think the finals need to stay in Orlando and Orlando has more to offer. You know you can make the finals a vacation by leaving Friday-Sunday. Besides the beaches if I'm correct what all does Daytona Beach offer.

If Columbia were able to play a Miami school who'd you all like to see.

Has Columbia played Raines before

Columbus is down south so they won't attract the kids from Northwestern, Central, Edison, Jackson and Booker T. Washington. Columbus will get the Perrine, Florida City, Goulds, Richmond Heights, Naranja, Coral Gables and Coconut Grove area. All of these areas feed unto Southridge, Homestead, South Dade, Killian, Palmetto, Coral Reef and Coral Gables. St. Thomas and American Heritage is right in the proximity of a lot of schools. Dillard, Ely. Boyd Anderson, Stranahan, Deerfield Beach and Boyd Anderson naming a few and that's why they get so much talent into the school. 

Jackson in my opinion is in a hard situation. Jackson is located in the city limits of Allapattah and for those that are not from Miami, Allapattah is in between Liberty City Northwestern and Overtown Booker T. Washington which is why I strongly believe Jackson had it problems with bringing in talent. Luke and Bernice alumni of Northwestern and why they didn't coach there I don't know but should bring in that Liberty City talent well I should clarify Luke will. Oh just so y'all know all eyes will be on the Generals this upcoming season.

Congratulations Panthers

Columbus and South Dade are interesting match ups

Damon Cogdell going to be a good fit at Carol City
