Whether it's an annual powerhouse or the "hot" school (Southridge, Chaminade-Madonna), it's hard to expect student athletes to stay put with so many coaching changes annually combined with the reality that you can transfer what seems to be quite easily in PBC/Broward/Dade area. A Cypress Bay DE just verbaled to USC the other day and I was surprised he stayed into his senior year. STA had seven 9th graders receive FBS offers last season (one transferred to BTW for PT). Not sure if this will be a trend, but it certainly was interesting to see last season. I know about 2 incoming 9th graders that look like promising recruits so far.

to 100+ we go...

BTW vs AHP is a good KOC starter in FL and STA vs BTW is a great opener in FL. Bishop Gorman vs. Cedar Hill will be huuuuuuuuge (can't say the name, lol).

I am not aware of any national media ranking service that omits IMG. I do believe Josh omitted them last year in his FL rankings and no doubt will omit them again this year.

I shouldn't have much trouble getting weekly FL ranking entries on this forum

First, thank you Josh for adding a National Forum to your site! I read much of your posts online and also sadly enjoy seeing your annual moving van list of 100+ HC changes in FL (the sad part of course is the # of changes being 100+ annually). I look forward to posting in the FL forum and if this national forum gets into the groove, same here. From another site we created 3 national polls, among some individual entries. Each boldfaced below... I'll have to review one of these nights to see if there's much of any difference between the 3 polls actually.

Dirty Thirty - Another site's forum members ranked the power states, tabulated and then Final rankings determined by various factors such as 4x100 speed and spelling bee contest... and if needed, a tiebreaker was decided by which QB hit more decibels yelling Omaha. 1 Saint Thomas Aquinas, FL 2 IMG Academy, "FL" 3 Bishop Gorman, NV 4 Katy, TX 5 Cedar Hill, TX 6 Mater Dei, CA 7 Centennial, CA 8 Grayson, GA 9 Lake Travis, TX 10 Colerain, OH 11 Saint John Bosco, CA 12 American Heritage - Plantation, FL 13 Miami Central, FL 14 Saint Joseph Regional, NJ 15 Dematha, MD 16 Allen, TX 17 Desoto, TX 18 Northwestern, SC 19 Mallard Creek, NC 20 Roswell, GA 21 Don Bosco Prep, NJ 22 Saint Edward, OH 23 Booker T Washington, FL 24 Steele, TX 25 De la Salle, CA 26 Mission Viejo, CA 27 Trinity, TX 28 Central Catholic, PA 29 North Shore, TX 30 Wayne, OH On Deck : (31-45) 31 Trinity Christian Academy, FL 32 Armwood, FL 33 Valor Christian, CO 34 Union, OK 35 Westlake, TX 36 Bingham, UT 37 Colquitt County, GA 38 Cass Tech, MI 39 Desert Ridge, AZ 40 Jenks, OK 41 Mountain Pointe, AZ 42 Fayettville, AR 43 Loyola Academy, IL 44 Oakland, TN. 45 Good Counsel, MD Radar schools - Not ranked, but being watched...
