FHSAA sets points system in stone


Joshua Wilson

Recommended Posts

The points system is now officially set in stone...

 

Biggest changes:

 

- Losses are reduced by 5 points in each category. This makes losses hurt more now than previously when first proposed.

 

- Teams will get 3 bonus points for scheduling a team that reached the playoffs in the previous two-year cycle. For 2017 & 2018 schedules that will be 2015 & 2016. So if a team made it both years, you only get 3 points - not six. If a team made it one of those two years you get 3 points. The bonus points will carry over for two years, so if you get a team that has 15 bonus points for playing 5 playoff teams, they will have those 15 bonus points to carry both into 2017 and 2018 seasons. This helps some of the issues of playing a team that could have a down year. Also teams will get bonus points for playing out-of-state teams as long as they reached their respective association's playoffs using the same years involved as Florida.

 

Overall, this now puts the focus even more on winning which is great.

 

I am working on how it would have looked for the playoffs this year now with this new info.

So, if I'm reading this right, if you play a team that was 1-9 last year but they were in the playoffs by virtue of being in a 3 team district, a win over them is now worth 38 points instead of 35?

Yes it would be, but this should ease the bigger issue at hand. In two years from now no one will get bonus points from a 1-9 team being in the playoffs since it will be virtually impossible for a 1-9 team to make the playoffs.

This is going to be a complete disaster. We have the dumbest bunch of idiots running the fhsaa. The solutions are very simple.

 

1. Less classes.

2. Larger districts.

3. Champs and runner up make playoffs

4. Seperate public from private

5. Two champions bowls at the end of the playoffs. Optional participation. Can invite out of state teams if a champ bows out.

Here is a scenario for you that could happen.  All the really bad independents join back in.  The worst 10 teams agree to be in a conference together.  So lets say

 

Landmark Christian Haines City 0-6

Merritt Island Christian 0-7

Lake Mary Prep 1-8

Wildwood 0-10

Master Academy Oviedo 3-7

Orangewood Christian 2-8

First Academy Lesburg 4-6

International Community 4-6

Halifax 1-6

Avante Academy 0-4

 

come to an agreement to all play each other.  Halifax is the highest rated team according to Laz index at 526 in the state.  Someone in that conference will probably go 10-0 and make the playoffs and still really suck.

I have a idea

 

 

1A: stays rural

2a combines 3a: small privates

4a and 5a: semi combines: (will explain)

6a: becomes semi large schools

7a: becomes largest big schools (enrolment of 2k or more)

8a: all large school privates ( 1k more enrollments so AHP, STA, Bishop morre, ect.)

 

 

Result

 

1A: rural

2a: same

3a: same

4a: becomes 4a and 5a publics combined

5a becomes 6a and some smaller 7a publics

6A: becomes large 7a and 8a publics

7A: becomes private schools over 1k enrollment

 

Does this sound good?

This doesn't solve much of anything. 

 

All current 2A and 3A schools would be combined into one classification and probably just makes the current problems worse. 

 

Oxbridge Academy, for example, only has like 600-700 students I think. That would put them in the same classification as Victory Christian out of Lakeland in this model.

Ain't both those classes almost the same enrollment number

Better for sure. Still would be nice to get it down to six classes, but the question is how could you do reasonably do it.

It would be 4 public classes which is the same it was when they had 6 classes only difference is I put the larger private schools in there own class so the publics and privates are seperate

How many private schools in FL over 1,000?

 

You always talk about teams having to travel and logistics.....How would you suggest they set up those 7A private Districts in the state?

Maybe Something like this?

 

Class   A:  Public Schools only under 600

Class 2A:  Private Schools only under 300

Class 3A:  Public Schools 600-1200  Private Schools 300-1000

Class 4A:  Public Schools 1201-2000

Class 5A:  Public Schools 2001-2800

Class 6A:  Public Schools over 2800 Private Schools over 1000

Not that many private schools over 1000.  One reason why some many private schools play independent is because they can't field a team year-to-year.  Schools like Bishop Verot, Jacksonville Bolles, that are in 4a are right at 1000.  Tampa Jesuit is all male so they have to double their number.

    • Perhaps the best RB in Tampa Bay iin 2023 saw his program close, and is looking for a home. If he stays in the area,Venice is a good bet. (Lakeland may be as well).
    • And if that same newsletter asked the Osceola County Sheriff Department, what do you think the response would be? If you asked, members of the Chamber of Commerce? (Essentially a union of businesses) If you asked a group of nurses? If you asked a group of lawyers? Also a union cares about the working conditions of their members, but the working conditions of teachers are the learning conditions of students as well. People are attracted to careers because of the values that come with those careers. Political Parties attract people based on their values. So it shouldn't be surprising that certain professions attract certain people in certain careers. You act as if the principal's first question when we have a 5,000+ teachers shortage in this state is "who do you vote for? And are you a member of the union?"
    • I feel like y'all are always solid so I don't see y'all going no worse than 7-3. Biggest question mark for Cocoa is their O-line since they are only returning 1 and on the defensive side they only return their blue chip edge in their front 7 
    • Coach Wiseman, let me just preface this by saying that you were the best HC Sarasota's program has had in the last 20+ years. You brought them from being a perpetual losing program to the doorstep of competing with Venice for a district title and a deep playoff run. SHS will curse the day they fired you now that they are back in a rut. You are a true class act, and nothing will ever convince me otherwise.  Our backfield is certainly sparse right now. We do have Dorian Jones, a rising sophomore runningback whom did considerably well considering his limited playing time last season. Our offense will need an overhaul with the graduation of 3 offensive linemen and almost our entire receiving corps. Our defensive line will be strong with the return of Ke'shawn Vaughn, Elijah Jones, and Asharri Charles. Our linebacking corps graduates virtually everybody but should have at least one bright spot with the return of Ben Zarkawiecz. Our defensive backfield is still a work in progress with the graduation of Lester and Platt. At the moment, we have more question marks than exclamation points. And that's not a good feeling with the kind of competition Venice is going to face. 
    • It's possible that they find their stride by week 5, but at the moment we just don't have the on-paper talent to compete with teams like Miami NW, IMG National, Cocoa, or Bishop Verot. If Venice can find a way to go 7-3 with that schedule I would be happy
