Sharkbait

I figured since some games were played last week and we would have games every day this week that we might as well have one thread to share scores and insight.

I'm happy he landed with a team, he seems like a good kid from the interviews I've seen. I am sure this past few weeks have been tough to deal with.  I wish the best for him.

Yes to the New York Giants

Hearing columbia got quite a few transfers, I'll work on getting names when i can

The irony of all of this is if I am not mistaken Venice and Peacock are not allowed to officially communicate/negotiate whatever but Peacock is still allowed to communicate with other programs, correct? 
The irony being the state suspended him for inappropriate communications , yet he is finding a way to abide to the suspension and perhaps advance to another sound program with...communication!
 
Kind of clever actually! More power to him if he gets the job, assuming he is officially applying for it.
So if he gets it, Manatee may win, Peacock may win....as for the Venice program ????
 
This suspension that Peacock is serving and the timing may wind up being a blessing for him is my point.

Just a thought. I am wondering how all of these players, that transfer from one school to another, are able to get to their new school? I know that transferring from any school in Florida to another school in Florida is now valid in the state of Florida. However, some of the schools may be long distances away from their original school. I would imagine that bus transportation is only provided for your school in the original school district. I would also think that few families can just up and move to a new school district. In some cases the players themselves may be able to drive their cars or their parents may drive them. Since so many players are now transferring every 5 minutes I'm wondering how they accomplish the transportation issue?

yea columbia is also replacing their qb but i didnt mention them just to prove i can have a discussion about football without finding some way to make it about columbia

I agree. Trenton should make the playoffs if they bring back recent caliber talent. It is not a very difficult region and Trenton has been impressive for a small, public school. 

How about Trenton representing the North in the 4A championship,

1A south is tougher to win than 4A North

How about Trenton representing the North in the 4A championship,

Regarding Vernon: the HC has football coaching experience has been an assistant for a few squads. I believe he was an assistant football coach and the basketball HC at his last stop.

I also think a some of these spring games and KOCs could change due to some of the coaching changes.  I was talking to an assistant coach at a nearby school who said their spring game was up in the air now because of coaching changes at both schools.

I personally hope they leave things as is,  we are going through enough changes with this new playoff format and school choice.  

It was a suggestion thrown out there and I just extended upon it. I would have noted if there was something "official" from the FHSAA.

I will put some of this down more tomorrow or Thursday in an official post on the main section of the website, but since all of you have been some of the most loyal fans on here I figure to share some early thoughts of what is going on.

I call this FloridaHSFootball.com 2.0.
 
The goal behind 2.0 will which will allow some things on the site to occur has been once thought impossible. I also want to seek out some thoughts and opinions from you all, something I will take into deep consideration when going forward with the 2.0 project.
 
1. More content creation
I will say this is an area that has been an up and down issue. This is an area where I would love to hear from you all on what you would like to see. My goal is to get 3 to 5 articles posted per day on a variety of subjects. Yes, I am setting the bar here, but I would love to set that bar even higher in the coming months. With Flag Football coming up you are going to see different things with that combined with tackle coverage. I will say this also that I have a notepad with several pages of ideas, some of which I look to execute soon, some which will have to wait until we get to the fall. However, it will be fun content!
 
2. Mobile App
I am looking at it now to get a mobile app for the website launched. This could take a few more months to accomplish depending on a few factors I cannot speak upon just yet. However, I have already looked at the company to be used and is already used by a big regional sports site outside of Florida. It will allow us to send push notifications when news breaks or other big stories are published. The mobile app would be available for both Android and iOS (iPhone) users for FREE. 
 
3. Video Integration & Podcasts
There are some things in the works with some things involving video. Once I have a few more things cleared up and ready to go I can officially announce what I am doing here in this department. It will also tie into something I have been wanting to do for at least the last five years, but sometimes the best things come to those who wait. I am also dabbling with the possibilities of some podcasts and would tie in somewhat with the video integration. 

4. Sponsorships & Advertising
Not too much I can discuss here, but there is some serious discussion for us to have some major sponsors come on board. This will allow the site to grow and do new things to further achieve to keep making FloridaHSFootball.com better than it was the day before, the week and even the year before the next day. If you know anyone that might be interesting in being a sponsor or wants to advertise on FloridaHSFootball.com, please have them email me at joshua.wilson@floridahsfootball.com.
 
Again, this is just some updates to what I call 2.0 for the site. Leave me your thoughts, comments, ideas, suggestions, etc. Appreciate each of you all who have come on the board to talk about the greatest state in the high school football world!

Considering the massive amount of  "recruiting" that is going on all over Florida, should Pahokee be admonished for such a minor infraction? It's not like very many prospects are beating down Pahokee's doors to play for the team. As far as I know Pahokee has always utilized it's home grown players and developed them unlike many other so-called powerhouses. Yes, powerhouses that were developed from how many D-1 recruits they can amass. If Pahokee was recruiting they would not have had so many down years that they had after the years they spent at the top. Just grinds me that the usual suspects get away with padding their teams with star power from all over the planet and nothing is done about it.    

Here is ours schedule for next year
 
spring game  North florida Institute
KOC Trenton home
wk1 Suwanee Home
wk2 providence away
wk3 Sante fe  home
wk4 Taylor away
wk5 Bradford away
wk6 Williston away
open
wk8 Union Co home
wk9 Dixie Co away
wk10 Newberry home
wk11 Terry Parker away

For a kickoff classic you really just need to find a fundamentally sound team so your starters can get a little work in and your backups and jv can some reps.  The main thing is to find out what you need to fix over the following week and coming out healthy.

John Paul II HS Head Coach Cedric Jones is taking over at FAMU DRS (according to WCTV in Tallahassee).

I would rather be in 4A

Happy birthday.
