The question i have is & im being serious when I ask this ; what is the difference between northwestern & the first academy. because the first academy got hit with one of the harshest punishments ive seen recently for doing basically the same thing. Paying for uber rides & other incentives to the players in need & for a lot of the transfers that transferred to TFA but didn’t have transportation to & from. & there was NO out cry. Matter fact everyone said TFA got what they deserved. But in MNW case it’s all hell broke loose. Is it because who the head coach is ? Or is it because teddy explained what all the money he spent was for ? …….

If we keepin it real. Before last year northwestern was known by name, and last history but, their product on the field was avg at best. Their last title was in 2019 & after that they had a 1 or 2 4-6 or 5-5 seasons after. & most will say they only won the championship last year because outside of central who had to forfeit 3A and the teams that’s in it is HORRENDOUS. teddy becoming the head coach of the west single handily had transfers legal and illegal coming in left and right because he’s a former/active nfl player & lets face it in 2025 the kids love to follow the hype. having a face like teddy on the sidelines automatically guarantee that entire team all types of connects, endorsements, exposure & etc.

If it’s for something reasonable like a Gatorade and water donation & they reach out to the community of course I will help. it’s all within reason tho. 14,000 for a 3 day gym stay is unreasonable. 2,000 a week for food. Me & a few alumni would just get together and cook.

And that’s where I’m at with it. I’m sure teddy heart is in the right place. But if we’re gonna keep it real, between last year and this upcoming year MNW has received well over 50 transfers a lot of them that are from different counties and stay nowhere near MNW. some of them maybe because of changing environments for a better life etc etc, but it’s also 2025 and lot of the transfers was to follow the hype train. while the uber rides can be a touchy subject depending on the kids situation, he also mentioned he needed thousands in donation for recovery, I get it he went pro and a lot of these assets he had in the league, but a lot of what he’s asking for isn’t even a high school requirement. when I played ball out recovery was a ice bath lol. He then went on to say 4,000 a week for food ? , what are they eating lobster. then he said for the three day gym stay he had to front 14,000 dollars for the kids. 14,000 to sleep in the gym for 3 days for what I’m assuming is for team building, is still insane.

Soul bowl this year is going to be at key. But another must see game will be homecoming Miramar at Dillard. Huge crosstown rival game with the football teams & the bands. dillard is also known for having the biggest homecoming tailgate for a high school which starts with the homecoming parade, which leads back to the school and from then it’s a all out family reunion with over 60 tenants dating all the way back to class of 1940.

I saw extra stands so I’m assuming they’re adding them. As of right now the stadium capacity is 5000

Glad to hear. Which 3 are you considering attending? We most definitely have to meet up.

Mane!! I dam near cried driving by the stadium today, talk about massive overhaul. These home games this upcoming season is about to be INSANE! , and don’t let us host some playoff games. Man oh man. the blue end zones is gonna be LIT, even tho they are still working on the kinks and haven’t put the Words on each end zone yet. Plus the new score board still have to be put up. it’s still surprising as hell how fast their moving. Just 4 weeks ago I rode by and the field was nothing but dirt lol.

I don’t think it’s gonna be close

My picks for these will be. Chaminade over west Boca Norland over vero carol city over Lincoln & the west over Lakeland.

It is. My apologies. In that case this will be the biggest in the state. Wish it was closer most definitely would have went

This would be top 2, but I think the Broward vs USA one is still the top notch KOC showcase.

Right! I feel like anything out of county should count.

I’m hearing , it’s Lakeland vs Miami northwestern, Vero Vs Miami norland , and carol city vs Lincoln Tallahassee

I agree with all that instead of the 35 point blow out. If we can hold our own against #30 in the nation heritage, at heritage and only lose by 10. I’ll take that over getting boat raced by 35 lmao lol.
