Lake Gibson and Plant.

I'm sorry but Lake Gibson doesn't have a shot period. Yeah anything can happen which is why you play 4 quarters, but the talent roster from top to bottom on both sides isn't comparable at all. Carol City on defense is fire I mean that defense is clicking on all cylinders and when the offense picks up its a rap. Carol City has played IMG Academy, Oxbridge Academy, Lakeland, Southridge, Central, Northwestern twice and a so called good Mainland squad. When you look at Lake Gibson who have they played or what was there signature win on the season.

They have a better shot than Lakeland.

Now that it's over,  how do you think a Venice vs Plant game would have gone?

 

In all honesty the box scores and overall production with Mater Academy, Venice and Plant were all very similar.  None of those teams did much better than the other versus STA. Call Plant versus Venice a coin flip I guess...

STA versus Mater Academy:  http://rs.herald.com/sportstrac/boxscore.aspx?schID=80494

 

 

To me they all looked like about the level of  "Good" SFL teams but just not good enough to pull an upset.

Very impressed with Ponte Verda yesterday.  Probably the only game worth the price of admission. 

 

Agree.  Quality performance and I think AHP underestimated the Sharks....If Ponte Vedra had a little more Defense they would be scary good...  5A has had great parity of late. 5A top five could all play with one another pretty tight this year and last....  I know all of the National and maybe some FL HS Football followers make claim of AHP being a nationally elite team but down here in SFL we know they are not on the same level of an STA. When I see people ranking AHP ahead of STA on the national board it is just nonsense....  AHP is much closer to many of the top SFL Publics than STA generally speaking.

 

Pretty confident this is my top 5 5A teams:

 

AHP

Ponte Verda

Cardinal Gibbons

Tampa Jesuit

Bishop Moore

    • So your saying if a team has like 15 transfers in one season,  I need to have like a team of investigators and video tape to realize that the coach is recruiting. Come on. The truth is all of the super teams recruit and yes some players come because of the winning culture. I know its impossible to get full proof  on everyone that cheats and even when they do have evidence and catch teams red handed like Winter Park.....NOTHING HAPPENED. Its the reason they should have competitive promotion and demotion so all the super teams who do bend (CHEAT) the rules get to beat each other up. 
    • 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 
    • Are you saying illegal recruiting does not occur in Florida ?     Wake up and take your blinders off
    • 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.
