Mostly agree, but I think I have a few tweaks:

1. Central

2 CMD 

3. STA

4. MNW

5. AHP

6. Dillard

7. Cardinal Gibbons

8. Gulliver 

9. Homestead

10. Columbus

11. Western

12. Plantation

13. Avante

14. Killian

15. Norland

But still, you have a very nice list. I think Miami Central is easily the best team in the state coming into the season. They’ve had tons of transfers on top of an already good returning class. It’s gonna be a party on 17th and nine-five when The Rockets put IMG down week 1. Can’t wait.

Killian and Norland in the top 15 is probably gonna be a massive miss by the end of the season

Certainly an interesting list. NW over Central is maybe the biggest surprise. Though Dillard over STA is also surprising. It seems STA may have some questions with their QB throwing the ball. If they do fall a bit, it seems that will be why.

Norland has gotten Champagnat’s starting QB from last season and several other transfers. They will be good.  I expect Dillard to be really good, but I couldn’t start them above Western or Heritage Plantation. Show me (they should). I don’t know about the rest of the team, Stranahan has 1 of the best players in the country.  They should be better then Monarch.

When it comes to over western why not ? They didn’t advance further then us last year, they didn’t have a better off-season then us, and also the last time we played them we beat them. 
 

ahp , we got their defensive coordinator, we had the better offseason & we both lost in the second around last year. I get their history but if we’re just gonna go off recently then meh idk.

Recent history says those teams are better. All the top teams have gotten transfers. I don’t take stock in getting a coordinator .  Western has solid coaching still. Everyone would have said those teams ere better then Dillard at the end of last season.  Now, I’m not saying they are better then you right now or that you wouldn’t beat them, but you have to beat the man to be the man.  At the end of the season, you should be better based on what we THINK we know.

Western was never Predicted to be better then Dillard, last year and most def not this year & we are going off head to head Dillard beat western head to head @ western win 2018 & Dillard has only gotten better since. Not taking anything from western Ijs. 
 

as far as American heritage I’ll give you that. So we will most def see when once the season end and begins

So when you talk about recent history that’s my opinion.

2018 was a few seasons ago. I think most people would say western has been a better team or more steady program recently. I could be wrong though. The people I talk to would agree though with what Coach Rack has been doing over there.  I do think Dillard should be better this year though. I just can’t put them higher in a preseason ranking yet though. It’s like what you always have said about Deerfield going into past seasons when they use to get a thousand transfers.  Have to prove it and they never could in playoffs. Let’s see if it’s different for Dillard. You guys should be sick though and expect better results.

And I respect where you’re coming from that’s why I love threads like this to hear the difference on opinions. 
 

but if we’re going off numbers Dillard has had the better season each year the last 4 years then western. We beat them in 2018 which was our last meeting and they were the favs that game.

dillard has went 36-5 in that span with areigional final app & tri county title even tho it’s not a state title. But none of that means anything I’m just ready for the season to start I’m ready for Dillard 2022

So does Lincoln but that doesn't automatically make them better at the other 21 spots on the field 

 

I still think that one player is making stranahan a bit overrated, they are a decent team but they no title threat like some rankings have tried to make it seem like

U can’t undervalue how good a Coach Roland was for central. Yeah the Rockets are loaded, but so are NW. Big decisions come in big games, that are pivotal to the outcome! How’s the new man gonna react? 
STA lost Taylor at DC. Who’s gonna fill in his shoes??? How many coaches have that type of experience? How’s Aquinas new QB? You can’t throw downfield, u lose to other talented teams! 
Someone said on here a coordinator for Dillard won’t matter????? Dillard’s coaching staff is the best it’s been in years. Dillard’s talent is as good as Cham, STA, Central, NW etc! BUT their OL is the key. That’s was their weakness last year. Till u build an OL like the Rockets, u won’t win the big one……..

    • Unions want their members compensated. Districts are slow to compensate teachers and coaches, period. Because ultimately coaches/sponsors are extracurriculars, and not the primary focus of the district despite what some on this board would have you believe. Make it easy, ask your local principal how many teaching openings they have this year in their faculty, ask how much turnover will exist in their ranks this summer, and when they replace them, how many will be highly qualified teachers. Ask the AD how many of their coaches are not highly qualified. The problem from the district and unions' perspective is that there isn't a coaching shortage, somebody always wants to be a coach, but few want to be a math teacher or special education and have their career tied to a test that they have no control over. So just like in the business world, you should pay more to get a person to do the job if nobody is willing to do it. Now if you want to blame the unions, blame them and the districts for not being flexible in salaries for areas of critical needs/shortages. Despite their being a shortage, it isn't a universal shortage. Florida isn't struggling for social studies teachers, PE teachers, or elementary teachers, but secondary math, science, english, special ed (all levels), and world languages. Unions/districts have been reluctant to give extra pay to those subjects to entice people to enter the field, but notice, PE teacher isn't on that list. __________________ To give an idea of what will happen, let's use Madison County (since they were mentioned in an above post). Madison County has 30 head coaches and JV/assistant coaches (including cheerleading). The total amount of salaries that they put to those positions is %66,706. Madison County had a budget of $24 million, so .27% of their total budget. If the proposed bill passes, Madison County would spend 322,500, which represents 1.34% of their budget, about 4.8 times more than current. Now, if the state legislature would simple just add the $260,000 onto the budget, the unions wouldn't care other than making sure that all assistant/jv/and non mentioned coaches from the PB Post article are included. But that isn't what will happen, instead it will be a specific line in the budget from the state legislature, similar to technology or textbooks, money will be required to be spent on the salaries and the state will offer no additional funding (or they will only do it for 2 or 3 years, and when there are new priorities, they will still require it but provide no funding for it). Now, if they offer no additional funding, what happens is that money comes from somewhere in the budget. Considering that that this be part of "teacher salaries", that means it will be pulled from general instructional salaries portion of the budget, which means less money for teachers. So yes, teachers will be upset when the state legislature yet again promises something and then underdelivers (see making the starting salary $47,500).
    • low pay and high expense on housing, while are in the talks, coaches are leaving becuase of resources.  Mike Coe of coffee who was at union county and was a state championship contender year in and out, leaves to go to ga, in 3 seasons they went 15-0 this past yr, have an indoor field being built, makes a ton of money, all his 20 coaches do as well.  resources, the ability to say if we want something, we dont have to sell discount cards and do car washes to buy 10 helmets, we go to people with power/money/boosters/etc and say we need 10 helmets.  look up his twitter, thats where this all came from. camden county and travis roland, same deal.  win a title at mainland and goes fundraising the next week.  or go to camden, takes his staff, make more money, have incredible resources to facilitate what a state championship program should look like, same-read his twitter. id say majority of coaches would work in FL for what coaches rate is, if there were resources available that if you ask for it, its done.  not having to spend the summer selling cards or raffle tickets or whatever they do....
    • The rationale for allowing unlimited transfers, while also allowing an effectively unregulated "NIL" market, is that players should be able to do ANYTHING that helps them better themselves. ANY limits or regulations are said to be immoral, and probably rooted in "white supremacy". Welp, imagine a player playing on a team that's getting their butts kicked. You can't argue that it wouldn't improve his marketability to simply take off his uniform and walk over to the other sideline during the game. NOW, he's on the WINNING team. It would be MUCH better for the player to be on the winning team than to be a no-good loser. And, since "equity" is seen as THE most (if not only) important thing-whereby "equity" is defined and measured by the equivalence (or lack thereof) of outcomes- allowing all of the players on the losing team to simply leave and join the winning team, it all makes perfect sense!* *While bitter sarcasm was employed here, this is not really a joke. Using the current rationale, the above IS consistent with the rationale.
    • Teachers are sometimes their own worst enemies.
    • This is a bit of an incoherent mess. The matter of parents' rights is separate from teacher/coaches pay and teacher certification. All are valid, but distinct, concerns.
