2016 Statewide Transfers - Public or Private

A bunch of new faces at Mater.

 

WR Travon Roberts from Norland

WR LC Gallimore from Norland

 

And I read on Twitter that 2019 DE Mikel Jones from Champanat has now transferred to Mater. He currently holds 4 offers.

 

I believe Mater has had 7 or 8 incoming transfers this year?  I believe they had a few transfer out as well.

Just my opinion...Mater has become very talented, BUT has no where the depth to compete w/ STA. But they are building something special. No team in 7A Florida has the depth to compete w/ STA. The 2016 STA team has back ups w/ D1 offers. But I like what Mater is building...they have a new weight room, kids coming in, a loaded 2019 and 2020 class. I think BTW, Deerfield, and BG give STA trouble this year. But STA will run a weak 7A and be state champs again

Agree.  Mater has some nice stuff going and seems to have a great balance of opportunity for education/athletics in Dade County for a non-private program.Mater is arguably 3rd best team in Region 4 IMO.

 

Currently STA has currently has over 40 kids on their roster with D1 offers.  Some say it may reach 50+ by 2017 winter/spring ... Ridiculous.

 

I am seeing 2016 7A in SFL something like this for pre-season:

 

STA

 

Dwyer

 

Mater Academy

 

McArthur

Doral Academy

Ely

40+ kids with D1 offers is awesome. What I want to know is how Coach is able to manage the egos and playing time of those players. 

Are those kids just happy with knowing they have the opportunity to play at the next level but not playing meaningful minutes in high school?  Do they just want a state championship ring?  D1 player but not good enough to start on your high school football team.  Now I applaud the coach for getting those players into school, because at the end of the day that what it should be about.  But I'm just curious to hear some of you guys thoughts on this?

    • Perhaps the best RB in Tampa Bay iin 2023 saw his program close, and is looking for a home. If he stays in the area,Venice is a good bet. (Lakeland may be as well).
    • And if that same newsletter asked the Osceola County Sheriff Department, what do you think the response would be? If you asked, members of the Chamber of Commerce? (Essentially a union of businesses) If you asked a group of nurses? If you asked a group of lawyers? Also a union cares about the working conditions of their members, but the working conditions of teachers are the learning conditions of students as well. People are attracted to careers because of the values that come with those careers. Political Parties attract people based on their values. So it shouldn't be surprising that certain professions attract certain people in certain careers. You act as if the principal's first question when we have a 5,000+ teachers shortage in this state is "who do you vote for? And are you a member of the union?"
    • I feel like y'all are always solid so I don't see y'all going no worse than 7-3. Biggest question mark for Cocoa is their O-line since they are only returning 1 and on the defensive side they only return their blue chip edge in their front 7 
    • Coach Wiseman, let me just preface this by saying that you were the best HC Sarasota's program has had in the last 20+ years. You brought them from being a perpetual losing program to the doorstep of competing with Venice for a district title and a deep playoff run. SHS will curse the day they fired you now that they are back in a rut. You are a true class act, and nothing will ever convince me otherwise.  Our backfield is certainly sparse right now. We do have Dorian Jones, a rising sophomore runningback whom did considerably well considering his limited playing time last season. Our offense will need an overhaul with the graduation of 3 offensive linemen and almost our entire receiving corps. Our defensive line will be strong with the return of Ke'shawn Vaughn, Elijah Jones, and Asharri Charles. Our linebacking corps graduates virtually everybody but should have at least one bright spot with the return of Ben Zarkawiecz. Our defensive backfield is still a work in progress with the graduation of Lester and Platt. At the moment, we have more question marks than exclamation points. And that's not a good feeling with the kind of competition Venice is going to face. 
    • It's possible that they find their stride by week 5, but at the moment we just don't have the on-paper talent to compete with teams like Miami NW, IMG National, Cocoa, or Bishop Verot. If Venice can find a way to go 7-3 with that schedule I would be happy
