Any 1 of you Guys Attending the STA @ DILLARD SHOWDOWN THUR NIGHT?


Recommended Posts


Didn't you say that Columbia doesn't have that much money like other schools? Isn't that the reason you gave for not going OOS cause money was a little tight? 

But on the flip side you have to remember that Columbia prefers to play games on the road.  They don't want to play big games at Home because they get over confident.   Between that concept and this pre-season opinions playing both sides of the fence I officially am changing columbiahigh2016's name to "Flipper" .

We don't, and that's why we don't have long travels like other schools

 

So how are you going to do a 2 year trip with a South Florida team? Y'all most likely aren't going to get any money at all in a 2 year home & home deal. Only way you most likely get money in a 2 year deal is if both games are road games for Columbia.

Well I personally like road games especially long ones because means a) I get out of school early and B) I get a few hours to relax and focus on game

 

As for why we don't do long travels it is money, otherwise we would play oos games with more then just a few south Georgia teams every now and then

Hey to be the best got to beat the best so for us to go to states their no team I would want to face more then Lakeland, if we good enough to beat you all in your house then I know we deserve the shot at the big dog aka STA

Yeah. Just giving you a hard time.  :) I'm reserving judgement on Lakeland until after week 3 (Carol City). On paper, they are loaded....but....these are high school kids.....you have to see how they respond.

 

On topic.....hopefully there will be a feed somewhere of the Dillard/STA game.

Was 35-10 last year. A fairly tight game until the 4th quarter when Lakeland outscored them 20-6. They look to be senior heavy in the skill positions, young in the trenches. Looking at their numbers, likely have quite a few players going both ways.

    • 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
