This board could get nutz if NationalHSFootball.com goes down.

 

I only want the good guys who want to talk about FL to come here. 

 

Not making a new national board for them here and don't want these boards polluted with garbage and thus making my job more difficult.

Yeah, the main thing is to hopefully have all regions in Florida accounted for and mentioned so we get good diversity

DITTO! Not making a national section on this and we aren't going to let this get out of hand with politics.

 

Bad enough with what this election is doing...that garbage can stay off of here!

If the national board goes down then so be it at this point. I will welcome any of them over who want to talk HSFB here in Florida and any national topics that relate to Florida. 

 

And as Vince Lombardi said, "The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender." 

 

Saw this a little while ago and I realized that is me right there in a nutshell overall with the website.

There are still a few, very few, members over on the other board, who would be satisfied with this board. Possibly they don't know that this board exists and that is why the aren't here yet. I, myself, found I could no longer be part of that other board due to the amount of people who acted like 5 years old's on a school playground. Constantly berating and making idiotic remarks toward other members that were not in the 5 year old's clique. Hopefully, those types will not migrate to this board and bring the same mindset.

If those 5-year old wannabes do come over and act like that here, they will be told to take it out back and get it off of here. SportsNut nor myself are going to have time to put up with childish games.

If you are talking about the national board, they know this place exists. We've had some unofficial ads being posted over there by people with good intentions and some of them were talking about Josh setting up a national section for them here on this site. Which, of course, we have since said we will not do that. 

 

Not to mention I've already told them over there on the national board I don't have time to moderate some of those people.

The only way I will consider adding a national section to this board is if people would just behave and police themselves, but that means I would likely have to hire a full-time moderator and that is not currently even in the budget. 

 

I know the traffic would go three-fold if I do this, but got to make sure it is right for the cause not just because of people who are upset with how Dallas approached his exit over at the national board.

    • 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. 
    • Nolebull, You are making a good argument for what the rule ought to be or why the rule ought to be changed.   I'm telling you what the rule is.  Interestingly, I witnessed first hand the FHSAA deal with a case that was very similar to the (presumably, hypothetical) one you just described.  A family provided a kid with a bed for the night because that kid had an unfortunate family situation that would have left him homeless for the night had a teammate's family not stepped up and given him a place to stay for the night.  Yep, you got it, impermissible benefit.  Coach and school penalized.  The difficulty is coming up with rules that can't be taken advantage of.  Where do you draw the line?   If paying for an Uber is OK, why can't you just buy the kid a car instead?  More convenient for all parties.  If you can buy a kid a meal, why can't you take his family grocery shopping and let them stock up?  Or, better yet, just give then a gift card and let them spend the money as they please.  What do you do when one school offers up a $1,000 gift card, but another school is willing to give the kid a $2,000 gift card?  Do we really want to turn high school sports into professional sports?
    • Some kids NEED to transfer to get in the best position to change the trajectory of their entire life. Could literally save their life. Difference between going to college and being stuck in your neighborhood getting lost to streets.    And I can only speak for myself, but I’m more interested in a at-risk kid changing his situation for the better in hopes of saving his life than your favorite high school team losing a game because he transferred from your favorite school. 
    • I wouldn’t be so critical of the FHSAA if they didn’t lie and say they give 2 craps about student athletes. I wish people would just be honest. But I guess if they were honest, it would mess up their hustle. 
    • Wait are you saying there is a rule that bars an adult mentor who coaches young men a sport from helping a struggling student athlete and his family with transportation? Whoa that’s next level crazy.    “Hey coach I’m on the side of the road and almost got hit. I’m miles from school and it’s 110 degrees out. Can you get me a ride?” ”Sorry. Some turds 6 hours away in Gainesville said I can’t. Hope you don’t get hit or pass out.”
