My son got his helmet yesterday. One week later the pads start popping. 3 weeks is the spring game. Then it’s summer workouts in 100 degree heat. 
 

There is no off-season!

Yeah, if you're in a in a program that has accountability and structure the season never really ends. January to August is when you win championships. I just hope the fans understand and respect that. The coaches should be paid accordingly for the time, effort and sacrifice they put in for the school and football program. Oh, and that 100 degree heat aint no joke for the players, trainers and coaches.

It could just be me, but one trend I've noticed with this year's schedules is that more "good/very good/elite" teams are scheduling more games against other similar teams.  Although there are other possible explanations, my theory is that teams are leaning into the perception that strength of schedule is weighted more heavily in MaxPreps ratings than it was in the FHSAA Power Rankings.  I cannot confirm this as a fact, as I am still waiting for my MaxPreps decoder ring to arrive in the mail.  But it should be interesting to see how scheduling philosophies and the use of MaxPreps affects the selection and seeding of playoff teams.  In any event, only 4 more months until kickoff...

I think the more likely explanation is that the powerhouses who gets loads of transfers are now struggling mightily to fill out their schedules without scheduling similar programs. They sort of have to play each other...

There is most def a lot more goliath vs Goliath matchups this upcoming year. Which you love to see. 
 

perfect example. STA @ CHAMINADE I thought I would never see that matchup. Especially during a year where both teams are nationally elite. So that’s a game I can’t miss in person. 
 

then you got American heritage vs Miami central 

st Thomas vs American heritage 

St Thomas vs Columbus 

It’s going to be an action packed 2024 season.

    • That would’ve been a solid matchup to. And great exposure for Dillard who’s returning a great squad this year. Waiting for our schedule to drop, but I can see another 2 lost or less record this year with a 2nd round or further appearance. 
    • Yea clown post. Taking one incident and making it sound like it’s keeps happening all the time

    • Dude, I usually post the average salaries per county on this board so that all coaches have accurate information. I also speak to my local teachers association's executive board and school board members about the pay of teachers, sponsors, and coaches on a regular basis.  Also, as I pointed out when the article was originally posted, there is a teacher shortage in this state. There does seem to be a coaching shortage. Coaches leaving for Georgia isn't the same as not being able to find a qualified replacement, which is found in many teaching positions in Florida. So, school boards are going to try to prioritize teacher pay first. A mandate from the Florida Department of Education will upset school boards as it will be another unfunded mandate from the state to do something. Governor DeSantis and the legislature promised that teachers would start at $47.5K, but for many school districts, they didn't provide enough money to make that happen (even after 4 years of it).  If you begin mandating the numbers suggested by the article without providing additional pay (which is why you would need a bill), that money must come from somewhere. The school district will have to use money geared toward teacher pay/raises to pay for the mandate, which means you are telling the nice little kindergarten teacher she gets less of a raise so the football coach can get a 14K raise. See how well that will play in the communities as a whole.
