some goofy names… lol

Plant forfeited some games in 1982 when an out of state kid moved to Tampa and had exhausted eligibility up North. For context that’s 40 years. May have been a more recent example I’m not aware of?
-
I think Columbia and Plant would be a good game and a fun matchup. They should try to set up a home and home or a neutral site game.
-
And I’ll never have the same level of respect for a team where almost every single player is recruited to play football, like IMG, CM, STA etc. I’d always pull for a Lakeland, Apopka, Plant, Manatee etc over and those teams.
-
then by 90 over Columbia? Plant is building back. Another year or two of this and it won’t matter who they play. They’ll be right there.
-
Playing tougher teams obviously didn’t matter to them. They got blown out by 40 points in their last game.

The Muck has sugar farms and prisons for an economy. Heard years back that the jobs were drying up in the big sugar industry and that this would effect the economy down there. Fewer jobs, fewer peeps.

Everybody on this board understand your strength of schedule argument. But TC is an extreme example. A team that massively overreached. They just lost their last game by six touchdowns. They lost every significant game and then are supposed to be rewarded with a playoff berth? I’m not against tough schedules but teams need to mix their schedule so they can learn how to win and learn what it’s like to play against equally tough or superior opponents. But right now they are Ofer when it counts and imho they should not make the playoffs. But they probably will under this dumb ass system so what does it matter…

To play out this moronic logic, if say FAU schedules Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, Georgia, USC, Penn State, and Oregon and loses every game, but beats the avg teams on its schedule, some of you would say they deserve a shot in say a 12 team ncaa playoff?
-
Laughable. In what world does losing 70% of your games give you the reward of a post season? And if Plant or any other team I support in any sport lost 70% of its games and made the playoffs i’d be embarrassed…
-
hell no. 3-7 does not deserve post season. lunacy. Who cares if they played a hard schedule.

FHSAA has not gotten this right in years. It’s not rocket science or brain surgery. It’s high school football. It’s simple numbers. The root of the problem is too many classes. We do not need nine classes in Florida. We need six classes. We could go to seven if you wanted to separate private schools (4 public classes and 3 private classes). This would allow for large districts and/or large regions in each class. District records or Regional records would determine playoffs (if fhsaa wanted to scrap the district model). Plain and simple. Also, the fhsaa should come up with a way to get more participation so there are less independent schools. I think over 600 schools play football in FLA but only 500 or so participate in classes.

How many district runner ups will be ranked ahead of their district champ?
181pl replied to badbird's topic in The Huddle
If a 2 and 8 team won the district, there was no runner-up from that district he was going to have a good record. Let’s be serious. The system is flawed right now. It was much much better when we just had basic districts with a champ and a runner up. There are ways to improve the district model by making them bigger, or scrapping the district model and going straight to the regional model, which would ensure only the top teams made it. If that’s what everybody’s after. You wouldn’t have to worry about lousy district champs. Six big classes of at least 80 teams. At least 20 per region. Florida could easily pull that off. -

181pl replied to badbird's topic in The Huddle
Again with the stupidity of the fhsaa. Why even have districts if being district champ is meaningless and the runner up could gain home field advantage? Just have regions with at least 20 teams and make a rule that teams have to schedule 7 regional games. Top 6 make it. Tiebreakers to get in decided by Kansas tiebreaker. Top 2 seeds per region get a bye the first week of the playoffs. Preserves 5 rounds for the fhsaa and keeps garbage teams out of the playoffs. -
If Ely wins, would a four loss Dillard team really be in the top three? I think Dillard wins, so it’s probably academic. But it seems a little ridiculous to have a four loss team as the number three seed.
-
Apparently he’s part Vulcan; difficulty with sarcasm or humor.
-
Have to look at the other side of that equation as well. It means that Dillard over scheduled and is not ready for that kind of schedule. You’re not going to get a lot of argument about MNW being better than Dillard this year. But a lot of times when folks are making polls they think of brand names.
-
Dillard is a very good program but it lacks MNWs pedigree over the last 20 plus years. Win a title. Then respect comes. Close calls against good teams show Dillard is a good program, but not a champion yet. Tough when locked in w St. Thomas. Definitely rooting for Dillard in 3M and hope they upset STA and win it all.
-
I would never rank Chaminade over Saint Thomas unless they actually play them and beat them. Which I don’t think will ever happen. also, your knowledge is broad enough, I would put together a class top 10. if you have time

The first step is to recruit the hallways. Get the guys you can. Make improvements and then the stars will start showing back up.Plus you need quality coaching and good program support which Plant has.
