Perspective

Excellent point Perspective, that's why they call you that right?  Our Birchler kid was in the same spot behind Mascoe as Trask was behind D'Eriq King.  Mascoe has decommitted from FSU and re-opened his recruitment where Birchler can obviously start on alot of other local teams.  I can't blame him for trying to put some game film together for a chance at a college scholarship somewhere.  I do think he is that good.  

Personally, I would have more respect for a kid who stays with his team and the guys he went to battle with all last season (and perhaps even grew up with) than a kid who leaves his teammates behind in search of a gold medallion. 
I saw this kid play once last year.   I was impressed.  I was also impressed with Riverview's coaching staff.  But I also know this kid fits the prototype QB that Venice likes to have:  height, good mobility and a strong arm.  I really don't know how Venice's head coach and/or QB coach compares to Riverview's head coach and/or QB coach.  And, when you think about it, it would really be impossible for a kid (or his parent) to be able to compare the two unless he's been talking to someone he shouldn't be talking to. 
But, if I'm a college coach, here's what I just learned about the kid:  he has just demonstrated a willingness to pack and go where the grass appears to be greener.  If it comes down to offering this kid or offering another kid, all things being equal, I'm going to go with the kid who has demonstrated more loyalty.   The Kyle Trask kind of kid.  Not the kid that's going to enter the portal because he sees something that looks a little prettier walking down the halls of some other school.
Look, I totally get it when a high school kid sees the depth chart and realizes that he's never going to beat out the starting QB and knows he has the talent to get a scholarship if he can only show his ability on the field.   I understand it when that kid transfers.   But this kid was already the starting QB and he was playing for a team that had success last year and likely will have success this year.   
Not throwing shade on anyone (especially anyone on this board), but now I'm kind of hoping that Riverview and Venice end up playing each other in the playoffs and that Riverview gets the W.

How old are you?
Is Venice a better program today? Yes they
But you need to do some research and get a little more educated when using the "Tradition" word. I promise you this isn't Tampa Riverview.

Also, and again "for what it's worth," the MaxPreps pre-season rankings can't be very accurate.  Not only is Madison County not # 1, they aren't even in the top twenty!   How can that be Jesse? 

I'm not a fan of pre-season rankings -- especially those that try to compare high school teams in different parts of the country.   That's why I started out my last post with the words "For what it's worth." 
That said, if Dillard takes care of business in the KOC, and then in the regular season, the rankings will take care of themselves.

I follow Central Florida HS football, so my opinion will not include other areas of the state where it seems very few schools are settled as for who will be attending what school. In Central Florida, it should be an interesting season in 8A. Seminole (Sanford) is loaded with talent and has depth at almost all the skill positions, including QB where transfer Luke Rucker may not end up being the starting QB; they have a very talented rising sophomore QB. I expect they'll be the best team in Central Florida this year. Apopka always has talented players and they are always very disciplined. I think their biggest question is at QB, where Andrew McClain transferred over from Seminole. Andrew is a better runner than passer, but that shouldn't hinder Apopka with their heavy reliance on the run and short shuttle passes. Apopka may be the 2nd best 8A team in Central Florida. West Orange and Osceola both have very good teams are in the same district with Dr Phillips, a team that should be good, but didn't show it in the Spring Jamboree . In my opinion, other 8A teams to watch in Central Florida will be Winter Park and Boone. Terrance Gibbs, one of the best RB's in the country, will lead WP's ground game; he is a beast running and catching the ball and should be in top form after missing all of last season with a torn ACL. He'll share running the ball with Amaris Shaw, a very talented rising junior RB. Boone has been steadily improving the past two seasons and has a senior QB that can move the ball down the field. It should be a great season of HS football in Central Florida.

Yes, we can set something up on a later date. Perspective might be interested as well. 

I’ve been mentioning it, even asked will they even have a team to field this august lol. 
 
all jokes aside this is what happens when you allow social media and quick success fill up your kids brain. 
 
u don’t think these kids privately ask each other or have secret group chats wit them coaches and a few local prospects looking to all team up with each other. 
 
It’s a monkey see monkey do type thing. Oh dam all these boys leaving aye I’m leaving to. “A bro 3 of us gone transfer to killian you down ?” 
 
Lit aye let’s do it “2021” champions lol 

They may not; but I do.

It promotes better vascular health than the standard fare that features lots of red meat. So far, I have avoided many of the middle aged to late life illnesses so common among my demographic. That and walking briskly at least 3 miles a day, 363 days a year have kept my medicine cabinet empty.
I aim to keep it that way. 

And I'm guessing the schedule was finalized even before half of the Hallandale defense transferred over to Central. 

From a value standpoint, it's tough to beat that $5 Biggie Bag.

You might be right that the legislature may have been fooled into thinking it was for academic reasons.  But the legislators from Lakeland that pushed this ruling weren't thinking about academics, rather the heat they were getting from surrounding schools.

Would've thought he wouldn't be able to play. Unless West Oaks isn't a FHSAA member in football

Jesse, I don't mean to be an ass, but frankly, I think you could benefit from taking some courses in the use of English. Aside from making you look more intelligent, it may actually make you more intelligent as your mind will benefit from the increased rigor deployed in the expression of your thoughts. 
I fear that the above will fall on deaf ears, but it was expressed with the best of intentions. 

I see three questions marks, but I'm not sure a see a single question in that post.

If he's that good, you may not want to use his name and the word "transfers" in the same sentence.
