The most realistic area would be Miami-Dade because they already have it. They have an independent conference. Most of the schools are over 2,000 I believe but they are not football schools.
10 teams (Greater Miami South Conference)
Coral Reef
Mourning
Hialeah Gardens
Reagan
Sunset
Ferguson
Varela
Braddock
HML
Coral Park
That's sorta the ideal I have. Someone I spoke with leads me to be believe Lake Region wouldn't be interested. Tenoroc on the other hand might. IDK? I look at how the SEC does there scheduling; play your division, 3 from the other and 3 whoever out of conference. Then a conference championship game. I don't see why we couldn't have a 12 game regular season. I'd like to convince a group of schools in another part of the state to do the same. Then our champ plays their champ.
North and South.

Fort Meade

You play the other 6 teams in your bracket, and 4 teams from the other bracket. The following year you play the other 3 plus one of the others you played in the first year and that would rotate every cycle.
I got 14 teams and their enrollment. The numbers could be a little off but not by much
Moore Haven 311
Fort Meade 419
Frostproof 617
Lake Placid 807
Discovery 811
Avon Park 925
Clewiston 981
Desoto 1263
Hardee 1339
Lemon Bay 1350
Mulberry 1402
Labelle 1421
Lake Region 1553
Okeechobee 1745
I like the idea. If you get 12-20 or so teams and play a championship, I think the winner would feel validated.
Heck the rural class has 34 teams and they crown a champion. If the Heartland can get somewhere close to that it would seem like a legit championship
