Seminole vs Deland

 

Battle of the Bridge

 

I got Seminole 28-24

Deland has three superstars. All can take it to the house on any play. QB situation not ready for prime time, yet. OL/DL is pretty small, but they battle. 8A pounders might give them trouble.....just an "early" opinion.

This is a coin flip. If one team wins big, I would be surprised.

I am making the trip to St. John's County to watch Apopka take on Bartram Trail. This is an interesting match-up.

Have you ever been there?  Bartram Trail has really nice field.  The turf (real grass) is amazing and kept up really well.

I have not. The closest I have been is: St. Augustine and Fletcher. But I am not surprised, it is in an affluent suburb of the Jacksonville metro area. Sort of like a Lake Mary, perhaps? 

I figured I would make the trip because in years past, this is exactly the kind of team that would give Apopka's defense a lot of trouble. I want to see how the current secondary responds to an air assault. They have looked promising so far, but I see this as a real test of how far this Darter team can go this year.

about 12 years ago New England Patriots used the facility I think and upgraded the grass.  They have kept it up from what I've been told

Thinking Apopka by 17-24 in this game, last year this would have been a great game but BT down and Apopka is well Apopka. That single wing will frustrate BT

I’ll be there tonight as well. Bartram is stronger than ever in the backfield and the new QB is solid but the defense won’t be able to do anything with Apopka. Give me Apopka by 17.

I went to Bartram Trail back in May 

 

Them getting those nice facilities is probably a combination of having some serious big money sponsors and having a very rich local community 

 

I didn't get to see Stadium up close but it looked to decent size 

 

I wouldn’t say very rich community. That’s Ponte Vedra. It’s an upper middle class community with a lot of support from the area. It helps that Creekside has been bad since they opened and Nease has been weak for about 10 years now. 

Nice facilites though. That turf field that the Pats put in is a practice field, not the game field.

    • 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).
