Tarpon Springs gets yet another transfer in this weekend, Pinellas Park star RB Emarian Triplett.  So Tarpon now has PPHS' star WR and RB.  I think the Tarpon coach is promising all of these players D1 offers if they play for him and he's taking advantage of all the scouts that are visiting the CAI players that transferred in as a selling point.  I know that's how he got one of our starters to go over there.  He's recruiting and not even hiding it at this point.  I normally pull for TSHS as they had fallen on hard times for a couple of decades but this is not how I wanted them to succeed.  Now I want them to epically fail.  They might have over a dozen transfers in so far and are picking off players from every school in the area.  It makes you wonder if there's something shady going on too?

All I can say is welcome to the dark side of high school football. I know nothing about pinella county , but as a south Florida native this is a year in & year out thing. 
 

a team that was mid or terrible for most of their existence, get that 1 coach and all of a sudden every kid and their cousin wants to transfer there. And then when that coach leave so does those same transfers & the program takes a fatal tumble, from near the top all the way to rock bottom. that some programs have never recovered from. 
 

prime example: Flanagan high school look up what happen and how they still haven’t recovered till this day.

You mean Devin Bush bringing all the studs in, winning and then bouncing turning Flanagan into a barren wasteland. 
 

Check Deerfield Beach for a more up to date example

That’s basically what coach glen did at Deerfield , while he was there Deerfield was always top 5 in broward for recruits year & year out. And because of it Deerfield always had average to above average seasons.

since he was let go , now look at them. 
 

Flanagan - coach bush was there a few seasons and within those few seasons all types of transfers came through them halls that would’ve never been there if bush wasn’t there. And the football program benefited heavy.

when he jumped shipped Flanagan could barely field a team the next few years and they’re still bottom of the barrel.

We lost to that team in the state finals in 2015 26-7, although score is deceiving as the game was even (7-7) right till halftime when we lost our starting MLB, Dwight Pinellas and had to replace him with a 9th grader.  They immediately targeted him as the weak link in our defense and found success doing it.  Coach Bush rode the coattails of his son and 2 other players for a gig at the University of Michigan the following year abandoning Flanagan as he probably planned all along.

    • Can someone explain to me why Florida can’t do this? https://www.ghsa.net/2025-2026-ghsa-football-schedule
    • Have you found any more first year teams besides these?    Geneva  Cornerstone Classical  Babcock Ranch Legacy  Masters Academy Vero McLaughlin First Baptist Bunnell Victory Charter
    • Victory Charter School from Kissimmee has 5 teams on their schedule indicating they are playing 11 man this year 
    • Wow and that’s the website the FHSAA uses for its rankings? What a crap show. Good luck finding the real schedules. The FHSAA doesn’t do anything to help.    Georgia puts their on their website for all to see. A simple link that has every team and every schedule. One stop shop.    The SSAA isn’t any better. I was trying to update scores from last year and they don’t even have the results from last year. Maxpreps and Scorestream aren’t even reliable either. Crazy that in 2024-25, you can find reputable sites for simple information like high school football schedules and scores 
    • Made a second pass through Maxpreps for all 576 (11-man teams). Yes, it takes a while.  Here's what I've come up with through this morning: 265 Schedules are complete (assumes 10 game regular season beginning either Week 0 for SSAA or Week 1 for everyone else, unless out of state opponent. 311 Schedules have problems. Here's the breakdown: 218 schedules reflect less than 10 games 88 schedules are impacted by conflicts. ie. Team having more than one opponent on the same day- or- scheduled opponent has more than one opponent on that day. 5 teams have 11 games scheduled. Seems like there's a lot of information to be gathered and rectified over the next few weeks.
