With great sorrow I would like to announce I may be stepping away from the game of football as a fan and spectator indefinitely. After witnessing what I just witnessed out of the Miami Hurricanes I can no longer with good conscience support such things. It is taking a toll on my health & mental stability. Thank you all for the laughs ober the years. God bless

As fate would have it, the winning TD was hauled in by Christian Leahy of Orlando Edgewater.

In the 2019 State Title game against St. Thomas, he had too long touchdowns to give Edgewater the lead at half time. Edgewater went on to lose the game by 4 or 5 points (I don't remember) when St. Thomas intercepted the ball in their own end zone with seconds on the clock, after Edgewater had marched down field with less than 2 minutes left in the game.

@cribboy305 I have a question for you: Does the name Travis Gabriel mean anything to you? He's the current Head Coach at Olympia High here in Orlando. I heard from a reliable source that he's a Miami Northwestern Alumnus and played for the Bulls sometime back in the 1990s. He may have been on their first or second state championship team. He's in his fifth season as Olympia's head coach and seems to have them on the right track. Before that, he coached at Boone and Freedom under Andy Johnson, serving as his defensive coordinator. I believe he played his college football at Bethune Cookman.

Last Friday, they (Olympia) took us to the wire and my Darters needed a 43 yard field goal to beat them with less than 4 seconds on the clock. The kick had plenty leg but drifted left, and hit the left upright near its top but fortunately went right and not left to give us the win. The lead changed hands 4 times in a back and forth contest that ended with Apopka winning 25-23.

thats a bit before my time but ill ask my mom as she graduated in 94. Im surprised by the out outcome. I do consider alot of our former players & coaches come with the same mentality they were brought up with. Fear nothing & every play is like your last. 

Great win btw Apk, did what my hurricanes did not.

      Lake Minneola New HC Quit After 3 days

      I’m not saying it doesn’t occur. What I am saying is that everything is case by case so if you are accusing a specific coach/team of cheating, I would at least like to see the evidence of the accusation. Because if you don’t then you are basically defaming them with gossip

      Dang shame. Wonder what it was about. Wonder if the principle was meddling out of his element.    There was a story near me about Land O Lakes High. Before the season, 2 freshman were slap boxing and other kids were filming it. One kid was obviously winning over the other with the kids in the background cheering it on. So when it got leaked, it was interpreted as hazing. As if all the kids in the background were sanctioning it.    Without one second of investigation the principal shut the entire football program down. Varsity season cancelled over 2 freshman slap boxing. It caused a shit storm. Local news swarmed the school. Parents outraged. Protesting outside the office demanding the principal be fired.    They finally asked some quick questions and it was determined to be exactly what it was originally said it was. Football was reinstated but JV missed the first game over it.    The principal was some punk pencil neck who looks like he never played a sport in his life and many people came out and said he had it out for the football program and he was the same way at his old school.    I say all that to say is this a similar case of some pencil neck principal who never played sports trying to undermine and butt in to something that they are way out their element on?

      Word is, Coach Banks the former head coach was escorted off campus last week after a heated discussion with the principle. from what i have been told this stems from banks talking to the paper about the program.

      They definitely would have been competitive. They had a really good and really young OL coming back. They also had settled into a pattern of getting plenty of transfers.
