This not only hurts those teams, but the teams that have them on their schedule. Southeast just beat Cardinal Mooney. But, instead of beating a 3-1 team, they beat a 1-3 team. At the end of the year, this will likely mean less points for the playoffs.

we beat trinity and with that loss I think that drops them to a category 2 win instead of a category 1 win

Cardinal Mooney was having a very strong season despite the loss to Southeast, they were clearly a favorite to make the playoffs in Class 3A Region 3. Now they go from 3-1 to 1-3 and then lose to Southeast to drop them to 1-4 which seriously jeopardizes their playoff hopes. They also still have road trips to Winter Haven and CCC on the schedule. A Mooney team at 6-4 could sneak in to the playoffs at the 4 spot, a Mooney team with 5 or 6 losses is on the outside looking in, unless Berkeley Prep loses out.

Per the Times-Union, Jax TCA will appeal to the FHSAA Board of Directors. An emergency appeal hearing date is in the process of being set up since the Board was not scheduled to meet again until after the playoffs.

    • 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 .  
    • So, after one very brief reading, it appears that the policy will be as follows:   kids, you can cut an NIL deal, but it can't have anything to do with the school you're at or any school that wants you to come there or anyone associated with any of those schools (i.e., boosters).
