  1. Just another case if the FHSAA dropping the ball. We should be used to it by now.
  2. 561, were you there Friday night? I have read in two different news publications about the fight with players involved after the game yet I haven’t seen where Hawthorne would have any kids suspended. Anyone no what’s going on with that?
  3. Some schools implement sports to be self sufficient. That means whatever expenses they have they must cover through gate money or fundraising. I know one school where the football team keeps all the gate money and that is a big advantage. That doesn’t help with coaches pay because they don’t let you use that money for salary, however it gives the program more money to spend so the qb club can direct funds to the coach instead of buying uniforms or whatever.
  4. The problem with the pay in Florida falls with the school board for the counties. Take Alachua county for example, let’s say Hawthorne is fully committed to football and want to pay a lot of money. They have to get creative and give the coach summer hours, or drivers Ed ect to up his pay. They can’t just say the football coach gets paid 85,000 and he teaches PE. If they did then every other school in Alachua county would have to pay the same amount. That’s why you see the larger salaries in Florida from single county schools or counties with 2-3 schools only. Georgia is primarily one county schools such as Lowndes or Colquitt. They only have to pay 1 head coach. You don’t have 6-8 schools that could care less about football getting paid the same amount. Texas is the same way, most of their school districts have only a few schools.
  5. Most “true” 1A teams have a JV team and it’s just like 561 fan stated. It is made up with mostly 7-9th graders from the middle and high school. Most “true” 1A schools are middle and high because they have always been that way. Most 1A schools have somewhere between 25-40 kids on a roster and usually 10-15 seniors would be great. Other 1A schools that may have another 200 kids or so that attend a charter school are able to have a varsity and jv made up from their 9-12. Those schools also somehow manage to have 20-25 seniors every year. But I guess mathematically it makes sense. If I have a school with 400 kids and have 14 seniors then a school with 700 kids will have 25 seniors, only usually that school is 4A.
  6. Jesse, not sure what your infatuation is with any other team that may have success. Guess what, this kid may not be a D1 running back but he’s a good high school football player that is doing great things. And guess what, somehow this kid ran all over Hawthorne in the state championship, the same Hawthorne that shut down Madison. How about you celebrate Madison’s accomplishments and stop trying to shit on everyone else’s accomplishments. It’s a pretty pathetic look for you buddy.
  7. Not only did they lose, but to a school with only like 200 kids while Madison plays with 800. That was like David beating Goliath. Congrats to Hawthorne.
  8. I can’t remember the kids name or the school (it was a Jacksonville school) but I think they lost to Clay like 74-73. I don’t want to look it up that’s cheating. I want to say his last name is Wofford or something like that. I believe he went to Wake Forest. I believe Clay won that shootout and then had like a 10-7 game the following week in the playoffs. Crazy
  9. This was a great question. I would have swore NFC would have been on there. I forgot how good Southridge was back in the day.
  10. A crazy thing personally for me about Madison Co is I’ve been watching high school football since the 80’s. Traveling to big games or playoff games from Orlando/Tampa to the panhandle and most of the title games. Until the last couple of years I had seen Madison play probably 10 times and only saw them win maybe twice. That’s certainly no knock on the cowboys because they we’re losing in the title game or to Bolles, Trinity or some other power.
  11. Bolles, NFC, Ft Meade, St Thomas, Glades Central
  12. Madison has been talked about over and over. They are a traditionally great program that is always in the hunt but most times fall short when they face someone with superior or equal talent. I believe they have 2 state titles when playing in the class they have the allotted kids for. I believe 98, 07 I might be wrong, Then they have won several when moving down into 1A where those teams just can’t compete. Coe is a good coach great motivator and does a good job there but I’m not sure him many people believe they are out X and O people. The fact that a good Pahokee team, nothing special had Madison beat this year and it took a miracle comeback should answer the question you’ve asked.
  13. Anyone can be a homer and name the great players from the team they watch all the time. I’m sure Madison has had a lot of studs. I have only seen them a handful of times along with these other teams. Those are the kids I have watched that jumped out in the games I have seen. Stats can be misleading, sometimes kids pile up yards against scrubs. The kids that I named I saw in person look like freaks. The Staten from this year was really good so you could probably add him.
