Rick Casko has been announced as Head Coach at Seminole Ridge. http://highschoolbuzz.blog.palmbeachpost.com/2018/02/26/football-seminole-ridge-hires-rick-casko-as-new-head-football-coach/

Ok great. I think I will be in attendance to these games.

They should add Lakes vs Glades Central so that everyone can have 2 contests.

So are you saying that you have the scores from every game that these schools have ever played?

Pahokee"s Coach was Leroy Foster for 3 of those championships. Blaze Thompson was the coach for 2.

True in a sense. Kids raising kids.

What city do you live in? I guarantee if I want my documentary to flourish, I will find the poorest part of that city to make it seem like I know what I'm doing.

Very misleading. Survey are just that, "Surveys." You have to consider who they are "surveying." The count against the area is the migrant workers that come here to work in the fields. Football is definitely NOT the only way out. Education is the way out. I can show you plenty of kids that played high school football here, but not in college, and still obtained their degrees.

Entitlement!! Kids these days feel like they can do what they want and every adult suppose to fall in line with that they want.

I had to read your response several times to get a clear understanding of what you are saying. Yes, Coach did well here and was loved here. But, I think you are stretching it a bit with the "rough circumstances and desperately needing guidance," part. Don't believe everything you hear or read. There is a lot of miseducation about the area.

Coach Antonacci was also on the staff at Glades Central when I was there. He was an Assistant on the 1997 Team that lost in the State Championship game against Jacksonville-Raines. He then was then OC the next 4 seasons and won 3 state titles in the mix. Coach was really a good man.

Westlake also just hired recently resigned Head Coach Bobby May from Suncoast, to be his Offensive Coordinator

Meaning that is terrible scheduling by Pahokee. Why would they travel up there 2 years in a row? Make it a home and home.

How well the young lineman develop will be the key to the season

That’s terrible scheduling if it’s true

Another blow for American Heritage Delray http://highschoolbuzz.blog.palmbeachpost.com/2018/02/09/football-american-heritage-loses-two-top-defenders-to-transfer/

Oxbridge has a very experienced Coaching staff. Several of the coaches have been Head Coaches, with one of them being a State Champion coach in 2 states.

I wouldn't necessarily say that they would have to lower their education standards, because not every student, athlete or not, will not be a Superior student. Private schools have the option to be more or less lenient on their Policies whereas public schools have set standards. So you have some students that value the opportunity that's given and then there are the ones that have that, "they wanted me here, so I can get away with this or that," attitude. Oxbridge, just like other private schools have been hit with both kinds of students. So, they will be looking more into the students discipline history a little deeper instead of turning a cheek because they are an athlete.

There is a a lot more to the story of the ones that have transferred out.

Politics ran away some good Coaches and players from Clewiston. Nearby Moore Haven benefited from good athletes transferring from Clewiston.

Can't call a team overrated that has beaten you every year that you have been there.

Oxbridge's numbers will be very low this spring. Transfer season probably won't pick up for them until summer time.

Glades Central's RB/LB Steve Barrett is also rumored to be heading there with Tracey

Can all those things be predicted? Not 100%, but if you do your research, you can get a good idea of how well a team will be. That is why I am for team remaking schedules year to year instead of the 2 year deals. It was very easy to predict that Cocoa and Vero would have good seasons if you pay attention to what goes on around the state. Coaches just have to do their research.
