And just like that, Travis Moore has been let go…

Vero got plenty of transfers since then as well, but they have NOT gelled as a team and I also see Heritage winning the rematch. Vero still looks very much lost as a unit. 

I have to agree, this whole season I seems as though it’s been, “when they gel as a team, they’ll be dangerous”- but it never happened, plenty of talent there, but it seems like a bunch of football players put together wearing the same jersey, but no team chemistry at all. 
 

Everyone see's it, my personal observation is that is seems like many are less concerned with winning a game and more concerned with producing dynamic content for their recruiting tapes if that makes sense.
 

Shot in the dark- as I was not at the game, nor did I see any recaps as to how well they hung with Cocoa

Listening to the game- according to the radio guys: the coaching staff is aware of the effort/intensity/cohesiveness issues that have plagued Vero all season, and apparently tore into the players at halftime despite them being up 30-6. It didn’t seem to help as they still played with the same in the second half. 
 
on a side note: I don’t know why Vero isn’t using the Palm Bay transfer Octavion Osby more, he’s a senior, runs hard and make the most of his limited opportunities. For some reason they chose to primarily use the sophomore Hillsman as their featured back.

I was impressed with Heritage in spring vs Vero, thought they had the look of a playoff team, agree with your assessment of 2nd, maybe 3rd round exit. 

What's most impressive to me about TC is how Coach Irvin Jones has gotten these kids to buy into the programs philosophy. While most of the talk this offseason around here was about Vero due to their transfers, stadium renovation, etc, TC just stayed quiet and went about their business.
Due to their style of play, you would expect they would lose kids to places where they can shine offensively, but they don't seem to lose any kids to transfer, nor do they seem to get a overwhelming amount transferring in. They are for the most part "home grown" talent that they seem to pull the most out of. 
They have in recent years become Vero's main rival, although there is not a hate amongst either side that I can see, rather a healthy respect on both ends. The past 4 years the district championship (2 wins a piece) was decided by this game and I expect this year will be no different, especially now that the game has been moved to one of the last weeks of the year before the playoffs start.

TC is certainly surprising everyone this season, myself included. They still have STA, Cocoa and Vero yet, but very impressive nonetheless.

At this point in the season Vero is not a top 25 team, I know they have a win vs MNW, but that story has been well told,  they are playing undisciplined sloppy football and seem very uncharacteristic of Vero Beach team especially on offense. The defense appears stout enough, but the likes of Seminole will expose that I’m afraid. Lots to work on. 

TC revamped their offense this year, as they were shut down by Apopka two years ago and by Osceola last year, as evidenced by the 3 passing TD’s against Jesuit.
In the past they would go whole games without even attempting a pass, much less have anything for a TD. While the single wing is still the core of their offense, they do switch out of it now from time time. But I am sure it’s nothing the Seminoles haven’t seen before from Apopka.

I meant Vero playing Specially Fit. It’s a joke that Vero has a reputation of playing bad teams in the regular season, which in turn doesn’t prepare them for the playoffs, which in turn gets them bounced early. You know the joke. 

They used to a little, Sebastian just got a kid this year from Vero, a couple of the Sebastian/Fellsmere kids are up at Palm Bay Bayside from what I’ve been told. 

They don’t play Vero any longer, the games got out of hand and they pulled out of the series despite the rivalry and being the only two public’s in this county. 

As a fellow Vero fan I have to concur, worst officiating I have ever seen at this level, Northwestern has every right to be upset, here is the final stat line:
Miami Northwestern 32 penalties for 243 yards, 4 TDs called back Vero Beach 14 penalties for 115 yards, 1 TD called back
I know the officials are assigned from the Treasure Coast official association, so they are not necessarily “Vero” refs, but it somehow seems like it, truly embarrassing, I have never seen a group of officials insert themselves into the game they way they did.
I will not provide any examples, as I don’t have time to get into a lengthy back and forth discussion about it, Vero’s games are available on YouTube for all to rewatch if you care to. 
 
Vero will have a hard time getting any S Florida power back to here after this.
