How does a team simply cancel a game? I'm sure these are signed contracts with consequences.
Do you have any info on a reason why?
-
So Lakewood Ranch would have been that 4th team. They had played no one and looked good to the computers. Too early to look at the standings in the season.
They have lost back to back games being outscored 94-10. They will take another loss next Friday by another large margin.
-
The bottom 3 are very weak. So much so the loss to IMG nets 33 points and a win say against N Port gets you 35.

No way 4 teams get out of that district. Possibly 3 but no way 4

I feel bad for the seniors that get caught up in the mess. That RB for Mooney Williams looked good. Going to Minnesota.

I think based off of your district is how you schedule others to fill the slots. Weak district will give you a headache for scheduling.
-
With that said maybe with some fairy dust and some magic Venice can show others they cant be counted out.
Or it could be a beating and Venice just goes about their business in district play and turns the focus to make another run.
Only time will tell.

I am for Venice without a doubt. I think they are good and better than most teams regardless of the lack of size speed and whatever you want to say about them. They seem to keep winning.
IMG is heavily favored and rightfully so. More D1 kids with offers. More size speed talent you name it.
Here is what I would like to see Friday night. How does Venice respond to everything against them on paper? How do they react when things are not going the way they want them to? Can they reduce the amount of penalties from last week?
I'm not looking for final score on this one. I'm looking for the other things that will make this a learning experience.

What are the red numbers on top for?

isn't braden river the second best in that district or is their someone I'm missing?
They are.
Venice Braden River Palmetto are the ones usually on the top.
N Port Sarasota Lakewood Ranch are towards the bottom. These teams in the new setup for points may get 35 points for wins. In a good year maybe 40.
If you schedule better opponents and possibly lose it can net 30 plus a bonus 3 for scheduling them.
I'm pointing out the disparity between winning a district game vs losing to say a top teams in the state.
Braden River schedule is not that great. They need to win Friday night to keep things going. They have to play all of those weak district teams and scheduled Booker who is usually very weak.

Player for player we don't match up. That is just facts.
Play together as a team. Play perfect with very few penalties. Catch a few breaks and maybe its close.
Or it could get ugly quick and get run out of town at home.
I will be positive and go for the keeping it close idea. In the end it is what it is another game win or lose.
Funny fact is 7A 11 district is fairly weak. Bottom tier teams provide no benefit to play. Beating say a N Port in the end might get us what 35 points. Losing to IMG may get us 30 points plus 3 bonus points for schedule.

I thought taxes were public record for corporations?
If they receive state tax dollars?

With all of that said don't forget IMG travels to Venice this week. Really didn't care much about the game until you start to have to scheme for every athlete they have.
-
That article was written in 2015. I wonder if they receive tax dollars if they have to publicly disclose it

need well paid lobbyists getting kick backs

Normally, no. But the well connected with a bevy of lobbyists, often find a way.
State tax dollars usually go to for profit corporations only when one of the following applies: 1. As an incentive to stay in or move to Florida when a lot of jobs are at stake; 2. For the provision of goods or services to the State (payment for services rendered). IMG's parent getting money is troubling to me, as I don't think either apply.
As the article stated the lobbyist said they fill restaurants hotels and provide revenue in the community
-
Couple of questions I have are:
How much does the head coach get paid versus the coaches he is playing? He doesn't have to teach a class we all know that. His day revolves around the game at hand.
How much does it cost to get these players, staff and equipment dragged around the country?
What do you think their budget is to operate vs a public school?
-
I would not have thought IMG could get state tax dollars. When I first glanced at it sounded like a private donation. Then I go and read it again seems like the state funded school.
Something not quite right here.
Do private schools that have paid tuition get state tax dollars?

I'm sure Braden River was not heart broken when one of their kids left to go to Sarasota. On the other hand a kid leaving say Lakewood Ranch to go to I think it was Riverview hurts. Not the same district or class but still the same.
