Recommended Posts


Soo as i was reading thru soorts articles & etc i stumbled across that flanagan & mia central was suppose to open up against each other but the plan fell ??

 

Thats a waaaay better opener then east ridge.!! Against nationally ranked mia central...anyone know why it didnt happen?

Central had agreed to play East Ridge first. Signed the contract and all but tried to get out of it to play Flanagan. East Ridge wasn't having it. Poor scheduling management by Central. If you sign a contract. Honor it!

They were trying to put together a Miami-Dade vs Broward double header along with BTW-STA. More money, but it was too late.

If thats wat central wanted to do they could have been set that up im pretty sure they knew that STA BTW deal was 4 2 years. That flangan central matchups could have beein in discussion.

That should have been something looked into in January, not late June.

 

MC was trying to figure out how to get out of the ER game to play Flanagan a good bit before June. There were a ton more discussions in May/June because MC knew they couldn't let that many more days pass by if they wanted any shot at getting out of the contract.

soo i was rite ER want mc and really believe they have a shot.

They don't believe they have a shot. I don't think the staff is stupid. I believe ER sees this as a strategic move to get used to better competition. They are currently in a relatively weak, but large district and don't have many optional games (this may change if we go to a new format). The new staff probably wants to make them not only a playoff team, but one that can go several games deep.

 

They could probably do this if they could attract some of the kids that go to surrounding teams, as they used to have a fair amount of talent until the new school was built (they had two epic playoff battles with Edgewater in the early to mid 2000s when Edgewater was strong). Playing higher level competition is one way to prepare for becoming relevant again. They probably view this as a great opportunity.

East Ridge scored first. But then the wheels fell off. Final Central 59-14. East Ridge did keep it sort of competitive for a half. Halftime was Central 27 ER 14, or something like that.

    • I seriously can't remember how many times I had to do that very thing. Like Nolebull said in another discussion, the kids know kids from other schools and where the "hot hand" is. I never entertained discussions with kids or parents of kids from other schools. I know we lost some good ones because of it but I am ok with that.
    • In a single word, "no." In a lot more words, see the following: (From 2023-24 FHSAA Handbook) 36.2 GENERAL DEFINITIONS 36.2.1 Athletic Recruiting. “Athletic recruiting” is any effort by a school employee, athletic department staff member or representative of a school’s athletic interests to pressure, urge or entice a student to attend that school for the purpose of participating in interscholastic athletics.   and this . . . 36.2.2 Improper Contact. “Improper contact” is contact, either directly or indirectly, whether in person or through written or electronic communication, by a school employee, athletic department staff member, representative of the school’s athletic interests or third parties, such as an independent person, business or organization, with a student or any member of the student’s family, in an effort to pressure, urge or entice the student to attend a different school for the purpose of participating in interscholastic athletics.  See Policy 37.    In fact, if the kid contacts the coach at another school, the coach is not supposed to communicate with the kid other than to refer the kid to the person at the school responsible for admissions.    Best I can tell, there is no exception for being able to reach out to a kid who plays a sport that is not offered by the school that the kid currently attends.  Perhaps there should be . . . but then you'd really be opening Pandora's Box.   
    • So you are not allowed to talk to a kid who is not an active football player currently attending a school that doesn’t have a football team?
    • 1.  Ask around and get the kid's phone number. 2.  Call the kid.  3.  If that doesn't work, DM the kid.  4.  Once communications are established, try to convince the kid to come to your school.  There may be other ways, but I think this would be the easiest way to recruit a kid .
