  1. here is my comments on the top 25

    carol city too high lost to 24 Deerfield beach

    apopka too high lost to 15 Lakeland

    trinity christian too high.  2 losses

    miramar I think they are too high but wouldn't argue against it and ok at 22

    oc university see miramar comments

     

  2. Lake Gibson 32?  they lost to Palmetto that you don't have ranked.  you really need to re-look at your rankings if you are going to post them and have credibility.  I appreciate your effort but you need to put more time into them. I will try and go through each team tomorrow

  3. they are like IMG in basketball.  They recruit worldwide.  They are not in a class.  They play a national schedule.  

    According to maxpreps last year Florida had only 3 teams in the top 100 in the nation.  

    Montverde, IMG and Dillard.  If it wasn't for Montverde and IMG Florida wouldn't be relevant in basketball on a national scene.

    it can be, but that don't mean that you can be ok with a loss

     

    I think us losing to Apopka and Escambia in 2015 helped us grow in second half of season

     

    losing to lee and Madison in span of 4 days helped us grow toughness but I was not ok with the loss itself at the time, though I look back and realized it was a blessing in disguise 

    that's because you are a FAN atic and not a coach.  A coach usually sees the bigger picture that doesn't mean they are ok with it.  Everyone would love to go undefeated but in reality very few will ever do that.  Better to lose a preseason game and learn a lesson then a regular season game and have to learn the same lesson

    I get that but my competitive nature prevents me with ever being able to just accept a loss as a loss 

     

    if I feel I can be ok with a loss then I don't belong anywhere near a team because a person ok with losing is not bringing their best, it should hurt to lose regardless of wether or not the game counts

     

    but that's just me, others will see things different of these preseason and camp stuff

    sometimes a loss is a good teaching lesson.  Sometimes a loss can help more than winning especially when it doesn't count

    Carol City got crushed by IMG despite fact that i hoped it would be other way around 

     

    The biggest problem with how i view kickoff classics is not all teams out there look at it like me, while i want to win regardless if it a scrimmage, camp,  preseason or whatever 

     

    I never want to leave the field knowing we got beat

    because you are not a coach.  Trust me fans and players want to win but sometimes there is a bigger picture that you are unaware of.  Maybe as a coach I need to work on something.  Maybe I want to see who can play in certain situations.  Maybe I want to practice on the basics and not show much for upcoming games.  Maybe I want to see how my two's can do.  Maybe I want to rotate 3 or 4 guys in with the ones to see if they can handle it.  It is not what it always appears to be in a scrimmage game.  I have never prepared once for a scrimmage game.  I want to see how we can handle lining up vs a team and playing football against something we haven't prepared for.

  7. DP's offense is not as explosive as they have been in the past.  They have some really good players in RB Devodney Alford QB BeSean McCray and WR Davarius Bargnare but they really miss WR Jaquan Burton who transfered to Jones.  He would have been the guy that could have stretched the defense and they don't have that guy this year.  Alford is a guy that is going to run through arm tackles but usually has to run someone over which he is capable of to break a long run.  He has been very impressive this season but he isn't a speed back they they have had in the past.  McCray is a very capable runner but they don't design many plays for him to run.  He does a great job getting the ball out of his hands quickly and finding the open WR but they are usually intermediate to short throws.  I don't think he has the arm strength to throw the deep ball effectively.  Bargnare is very elusive but not a deep threat and that might be because of the QB.  Penalties also has hurt this offense but it has potential.     

  8. my Central Florida rankings  

    1. DP 4-0 at Wekiva thursday home vs Apopka Monday (If they win these two they deserve #1)

    2. Jones 4-1 home vs West Orange Thursday and Evans Monday

    3. Osceola 4-0 home vs Jesuit

    4. Apopka 4-1 at Madarin friday at DP Monday

    5. Seminole 3-0 home vs Lyman

    6. Winter Park 5-0 home vs Olympia Thursday at Colonial Monday

    7. OC University 2-1 home vs Oviedo

    8. Mainland 2-2 at Cocoa

    9. Spruce Creek 5-0

    10. Bishop Moore 3-1 at MCC

    others Wekiva 4-1, Lake Mary 3-1, LHP 4-0, East Ridge 4-1, Boone 3-1 

  9. I just wasn't sure what he wanted to talk about.  I prefer to talk about the game not the protest but can talk about either.  As far as the game goes it should be low scoring.  Unless Wekiva's QB has the game of his life I don't see Wekiva mustering enough offense to win this game.  I think the only way DP loses is if they give the game away on turnovers and special teams.  I'll take DP 17-7. 

  10. what does Wekiva having players kneel and them playing DP this week have anything to do with each other?  Is DP going to destroy them because they took a knee during the anthem?  Is DP not going to let them on the field during the anthem?  Are you against Wekiva players taking a knee?  What is your point in this post?

    On a side note:

    After watching Wekiva it appears Wekiva's offense has decided to take a knee during the game.  

  11. #7 O'shae Baker is very good and only a sophomore.  #18 is a junior.  I would say offensively they don't have the same running game they had last year but I'm sure they will get better.  The talent is young but it is there
