Polk 14 total: Lakeland 6, Bartow 3, Frostproof 3, Haines City 1, Fort Meade 1 

Dade County has over 10 different public high schools who have won state titles.  Polk County has 5 different public schools that have won state titles.  Which county has the second-most number of different schools that have won FHSAA state titles?  It is not Polk County.

Palm Beach County. If not, then Escambia County.

No. Neither of these had a stellar record during the 20th Century. 

I guessed those because duval and broward are both dominated by privates 

 

Here's a interesting stat that shows how badly duval county underacheives

 

Columbia county with 2 public schools have as many public schools to have won a state championship in football as duval county (1 each) 

 

Duval county has close to a million people 

 

Columbia county barley has 50k people

 

Yet add in university Christian, trinity Christian and Bolles and suddenly duval is loaded in championships

 

The talent is there but those publics have no consistency and I don't expect the stat of raines being the only public in duval with a state championship to change

Palm Beach has 5 Public Schools with a championship. 

Glades Central, Pahokee, Dwyer, Delray-Carver, and Palm Beach Gardens

Very good MuckCityChamp...For those who don't know, Carver was a segregated school in Delray that won titles in the 1960's.

Palm Beach ties with Polk and Broward with 5 schools. Only 3 counties have more than 5 public schools with championships.  Dade is #1.

Darter guessed a longshot with Escambia...hmmm

Brevard.  Merritt island, cocoa, rockledge, Palm Bay, Titusville, Melbourne 

Very good!  Brevard is #3 on the list with 6.  That's right, more than all those huge counties like Broward, Palm Beach, Hillsborough and Orange!  Melbourne High won a title in the 1960's and Merritt Island in the 1970's.  That is some rich history Brevard! 

Who is #2?

Is it Escambia like previously mentioned? Escambia, Pensacola, pine forest, Tate, Washington, Woodham and someone I’m misding?

It is Escambia!  And ya'll missed one.  8 Escambia public schools won state titles....at least one winner in each of the last 5 decades.   Here they are...

Ernest Ward(1A/1979),  Escambia(3A/1984, 4A/1985), Northview(1A/2012), Pensacola(3A/2009), Pine Forest (5A/1987 &1988, 4A/2000) Tate(4A/1980), Washington (6A/1994), Woodham(4A/1982 & 1984-school closed in 2007)

Note:Century and Ernest Ward utlimately became Northview.  West Florida High is a rising power and may make it 9 in the next few years!

So, in order it is...

Miami-Dade-11 public school champions

Escambia-8

Brevard-6

Broward, Palm Beach & Polk-5

      Lake Minneola New HC Quit After 3 days

      By nolebull813 · Posted

      I’m not saying it doesn’t occur. What I am saying is that everything is case by case so if you are accusing a specific coach/team of cheating, I would at least like to see the evidence of the accusation. Because if you don’t then you are basically defaming them with gossip

      Dang shame. Wonder what it was about. Wonder if the principle was meddling out of his element.    There was a story near me about Land O Lakes High. Before the season, 2 freshman were slap boxing and other kids were filming it. One kid was obviously winning over the other with the kids in the background cheering it on. So when it got leaked, it was interpreted as hazing. As if all the kids in the background were sanctioning it.    Without one second of investigation the principal shut the entire football program down. Varsity season cancelled over 2 freshman slap boxing. It caused a shit storm. Local news swarmed the school. Parents outraged. Protesting outside the office demanding the principal be fired.    They finally asked some quick questions and it was determined to be exactly what it was originally said it was. Football was reinstated but JV missed the first game over it.    The principal was some punk pencil neck who looks like he never played a sport in his life and many people came out and said he had it out for the football program and he was the same way at his old school.    I say all that to say is this a similar case of some pencil neck principal who never played sports trying to undermine and butt in to something that they are way out their element on?

      Word is, Coach Banks the former head coach was escorted off campus last week after a heated discussion with the principle. from what i have been told this stems from banks talking to the paper about the program.

      They definitely would have been competitive. They had a really good and really young OL coming back. They also had settled into a pattern of getting plenty of transfers.
