Thought they may ease up after last year, but nope, still very impressive:

8/18 @ Lake Wales

8/25 Kissimmee Osceola 

9/1 Tampa Jesuit 

9/8 Sanford Seminole 

9/14 @ Martin County

9/22 @ St Thomas Aquinas

9/29 @ Cocoa

10/6 Bye

10/12 Ft Pierce Central

10/20 @ Centennial 

10/27 Vero Beach

only one team that did not make the playoffs last season (Ft Pierce Central) and they are a district opponent so they must play them.

Just like last year, they have a very tough schedule. Time will tell if there is merit to scheduling like this.

Will they be playing the Kansas City Chiefs for homecoming? :D

But seriously, one of the best schedules in the state so far. STA, Cocoa, Seminole, and Osceola look like losses. Vero Beach is a tossup. Martin County is deceptively good and nearly won that district last season. Jesuit is hot and cold and could very well be a trap game. Their bye week couldn't come at a better time as they will have two weeks to prepare to win the district after an absolutely brutal first 8 games.

Jesuit and Martin County are definite trap games. And if Cocoa is healthy when they play then it will be another classic like their multiple overtime thriller a few seasons ago.

That schedule is just brutal.  They could make the playoffs at 1-9 or 2-8 with those teams and how the formula works.

They made it in at 4-6 last season (making the 2nd round) and I could see the same this year

All them whoppings they gave yall

They didn’t “whoop” us since 2016 every game since then was to the wire and hard fought which is quite impressive since one team is top 5 nationally ranked & the other isn’t. 
 

also since 2012 Dillard is 1/3 against sta and that win was @ sta , so I like I said the raiders never “BROKE US” anytime they line up with us they know it’s about to be a fight. Any & every school can’t say that.

And it was only 7-6 raiders at the half. Point is Dillard is one of the very few public schools in Florida especially broward county to give sta a run for their money outside of Miramar a few years back. 
 

but it’s a new year I wish vero all the luck this year , I hear that your guys are extremely stacked. It’s gonna be a great year for football.

    • 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.” 
    • Say what you want, justify it however you want, wish the rules weren't what they are, but there is no question that a coach or other school representative paying for Uber rides for kids playing sports is a violation of the existing FHSAA rules.  Period.  And Teddy Bridgewater may be or have been an elite athlete, may be or become an excellent high school football coach, and/or may have his heart in the right place, but tweeting out a message to the world that you have done something that undoubtedly constitutes a violation of the rules is just plain stupid.
