Doubt that, but I'll say they have the potential to be one of the stronger 1A and 2A teams we have seen at States in a while.  Particularly 2A.

I said that because if they a top 5 team among all small schools then no 2a north team will even play the game close in Orlando lol

 

If Champagnat is as good as people are saying there no one else in 2a even close to them

The 2A North rep last year was better than the 1A North Rep IMO

I'll take University Christian over Baker.   I'd probably take Cambridge and Northside Christian to compete with or beat Baker as well.

 

I happen to believe this Champagnat-Catholic team will be better than Pahokee and Madison this year.

I agree with DFB, not sure they beat Carol City, but they will be a contender for 8a.  Not sure I'd put teams like miramar and Vero over them.  I also have a feeling Plant is solid this year.  They've been tearing it up in 7v7.  

Depends Vero QB need to be tested first

BA made it to the finals...??? Who from sfla was in that tournament?

Only BA and Piper but the tournament had like 50 teams. Teams like Mainland, Jones, and a bunch of others.   Mainland has been a beast in 7v7, and BA has done decent in the south Fl tournaments.  now I'm not saying they'd win a big south Florida tournament, but they look good.  Mainland was on a 30+ 7v7 win streak before losing to Plant this year.

You have a point but baker County and baker are 2 different schools 

 

Baker is in the panhandle 

 

Baker County is between lake city and Jacksonville

Stoneman Douglas beat BTW at the competitive Miami Dolphins 7 v 7 event last year.  

7 v 7 builds great chemistry, allows you to evaluate your skills but take evaluating very, very lightly IMO.

 

I can name several SFL recent State Champions that don't even compete in 7 v 7s...

Well because it takes running game and trenches out of equation 

 

Plus means no qb pressure

 

 

7 on 7 is more about chemistry for qb and wrs and for dbs to get good reps

2A is overbashed.  University Christian was probably as good  than both Pahokee and Madison County last year but they don't have the same name...

Of course.   All I'm saying is it's a good sign for Plant.

Well if you use common opponents Madison and university Christian probably about same tier

 

They both won close games against Fort White

    • I seriously can't remember how many times I had to do that very thing. Like Nolebull said in another discussion, the kids know kids from other schools and where the "hot hand" is. I never entertained discussions with kids or parents of kids from other schools. I know we lost some good ones because of it but I am ok with that.
    • In a single word, "no." In a lot more words, see the following: (From 2023-24 FHSAA Handbook) 36.2 GENERAL DEFINITIONS 36.2.1 Athletic Recruiting. “Athletic recruiting” is any effort by a school employee, athletic department staff member or representative of a school’s athletic interests to pressure, urge or entice a student to attend that school for the purpose of participating in interscholastic athletics.   and this . . . 36.2.2 Improper Contact. “Improper contact” is contact, either directly or indirectly, whether in person or through written or electronic communication, by a school employee, athletic department staff member, representative of the school’s athletic interests or third parties, such as an independent person, business or organization, with a student or any member of the student’s family, in an effort to pressure, urge or entice the student to attend a different school for the purpose of participating in interscholastic athletics.  See Policy 37.    In fact, if the kid contacts the coach at another school, the coach is not supposed to communicate with the kid other than to refer the kid to the person at the school responsible for admissions.    Best I can tell, there is no exception for being able to reach out to a kid who plays a sport that is not offered by the school that the kid currently attends.  Perhaps there should be . . . but then you'd really be opening Pandora's Box.   
    • So you are not allowed to talk to a kid who is not an active football player currently attending a school that doesn’t have a football team?
    • 1.  Ask around and get the kid's phone number. 2.  Call the kid.  3.  If that doesn't work, DM the kid.  4.  Once communications are established, try to convince the kid to come to your school.  There may be other ways, but I think this would be the easiest way to recruit a kid .
