Love MC, but they play WAY, WAY, WAY below the actual level of competition they should be playing in the playoffs.

In. Can't win if you don't play.

Plant is very average now

Need to add Sumner in week 9

Looking at the HC master schedule, looks like they could play Sumner in the last week, as both teams are open and have under 8 varsity games. They would also have room for Spoto, Middleton, or Blake in their other off week, however, those teams would be over 8 games. Not sure is Laness is allowing that.

I'd like to see them try to get in Robinson, Hillsborough, or Jefferson, traditional S. Tampa rivals. No reason to play Armwood this year when you can travel literally 2.5 miles and play Robinson or Jefferson. Don't understand the need for 20+ mile trek for a meaningless game.

Rest in peace coach! You were a legend and always will be.

So, "objection, asked and answered"?

Can't all recruit like the L. LOL.

Then play independent....

Plant- Brockmeier, as stated in companion thread.

They're supposed to announce Monday from what I hear. there's a couple of finalist but they kept everything under wraps. I know two names but I don't want to say anything because I don't know if those guys are in the final two or not.

Listen, the world doesn't revolve around N. Florida. 90 percent of the teams in the state are within a reasonable distance of say six other similarly sized high schools to make real districts. Adjust. Maybe the FHSAA can kick in some travel stipends if a team has to go over 75 miles. There are ways to get the system correct.

I'm OK with it. But the playoff rankings are a joke.We either need large districts with the top two making it or we need to qualify by Region based on your record against that region (top 4).

Trenton was putting it on 1A not that long ago. But MadCo is the most consistent, by far.

Acosta to IMG

times and needs change. re-propose

Someone would have to propose it. It would be debated. It would be voted on. I know you passed Civics.

Rules. You know, those things that govern the member schools? Hillsborough is stuck with a "regional" county schedule.

One IMG doesn't fill up N. FLA schedules. Lol. One way to get around your problem is to have "Region" schedules in rural areas where the teams in region play must a certain amount of teams not only from their district, but the larger region. This would help, an be better than tax payers subsidizing IMG's existence by playing them while they take players from those schools. Don't sell your soul over this.

If there are 10-15 national academies that only play each other, so be it. But to stop the rise of this crap, normal academic institutions have to stop playing sports academies.

The only way to stop this in Florida is to make these teams ineligible to play FHSAA members. I'm sure FHSAA took a big payoff from IMG and the like to allow its "school" to play regular schools. Only way to stop this crap it to prevent FHSAA members from participating against these teams. Period.

Hence the word "arguably"....

Which to me is weird, at least for Parks. Both Gaither and Jesuit made it to the state semis last year. Parks leaves before his senior year to join a new squad that is arguably not as good as his former team.
