Lakeland not quite what they use to be. Manatee either.

Madison ran all over Tampa Catholic in a state title game.

Special interest groups always make these kind of promises that rarely if ever materialize. Yes they do bring some economic gain, but in order to get a big payout, they make a big promise.

Bob Martin, twice head coach at Desoto (62-67;71-74), then three seasons at Winter Park (68-70) and retired after 18 season at Hardee (78-95). At the time he was #5 all time winningest coach.

Nope, here's a hit, he wasn't very successful at Winter Park so he went back to the school he was at before, then later coached that school's rival and retired with 235 wins.

Question for you OldschoolLion, who was Gergley's predecessor?

I was just curious because maxpreps still showed him as head coach up to recently.

Winter Park - Didn't Larry Gergley retire, then come back? The current coach, Tim Shifflet replaced him both times?

You really believe IMG brought 1.5 billion in investment? Fussy Math http://www.politifact.com/florida/article/2015/jun/19/img-academy-projects-big-economic-numbers-expansio/

Winter Park - Tim Shifflet, current coach.

Wages in Florida are low in general. I know law enforcement officers, nurses and other professionals who make less than teachers. The makes for a low tax base. Until that gets fixed, the problem of low teacher and coach pay will remain.

Like USF really should be University of West Central Florida

Considered both. Just like us. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florida_Heartland

You should add Sarasota, Desoto, Highlands, Okeechobee

Its one of the oldest offensive formations, going back to the old days of leather helmets. I remember seeing the Miami dolphins lining up in single wing against New England and the announcers where like what's this?

Is it still as isolated as it was? I haven't been down there since I was a kid. I have been told that there is new development from Naples out that way? Back in the old days Immokalee was know for high crime, like an old west town. Hardee and Immokalee was in the same district 2009-2010; the 2010 game was there and I didn't go. In 1995 Hardee played Immokalee in the playoffs. Edgerrin James was a senior for Immokalee.

Stephen Garcia - Jefferson?

Really?

Deondre Franscois (Olympia/IMG)?

I was thinking Kyle Isreal (University) and Blake Bortled (Ovieto)

Did 2 of them play at UCF?

http://www.heraldtribune.com/sports/20180518/spring-football-bayshore-buries-short-handed-dunedin I know its only a spring game, but Bayshore looked good. Most people look at Bayshore as a pushover but from what I saw last year, they aren't that bad. Lost several games that were really close. Past experience tells me that the sign of a program headed in the right direction.

I'm going to make a real bold prediction: Bradenton Bayshore, will have a winning season and make the playoffs.

Danny Wuerffel?
