Cardinal Gibbons (1-2) vs Miami Jackson (3-0) 

Gibbons comes in with new life and confidence after getting a much needed victory last week over my panthers while Jackson comes in red hot at 3-0 not giving up a single point in either game.

Gibbons will still be favored and rightfully so but don’t be surprised if this is the Jackson of 2012 and 2013 and they pull off the victory. 

PREDICTION: GIBBONS 24 JACKSON 14

DILLARD (1-2) AT BOYD ANDERSON (1-2)

So the 3 game juggernaut is over with dillard coming out 1-2 with most predicting Dillard would come out 0-3 like last year. Under first head coach toriano Morgan Dillard has shown major strides and improvements even tho there is still a lot of work to do I believe Dillard has hit the breather of their schedule. This week we have 1-2 boyd Anderson who looked like anything but impressive over their first 3 games getting blasted 35-7 by Piper last week and only scoring 6 points in a 6-0 win over lowly Boynton Beach. It’s a rival game so we can’t take them lightly but I believe this is the game where Dillard hits their stride and take off the rest of the season. 

PREDICTION: DILLARD 38 BOYD ANDERSON 12

MIRAMAR (0-2) AT PLANTATION (2-0) 

whooaaa!! The amount of significance in this game Miramar come in after two tough opponents at 0-2 desperately looking for their first win while plantation comes in soaring after two dominant victories. 

And to add more fire to the mix this is a district game the winner would be that much closer to being district champs which was won by Miramar last year. If Miramar has any chance of making the playoffs they can’t start 0-3 0-1 in district play. Plantation on the other hand would love nothing more then to get pay back. 

PREDICTION: MIRAMAR 20 PLANTATION 14 I can’t see the patriots dropping 0-3

Columbia vs Lee 

 

Both are 3-0 and will face off for what is likely the district championship in 7a district 2

 

Trinity Christian vs Bolles 

Another battle that is likely for the district but in 5a district 4

 

Bolles lost to Rockledge in a close one but is at home here, Trinity Christian is 3-0 and has a win over 7A Braden River on its resume and beat Bolles twice last season 

 

 

Those are 2 biggest games in this area of state

 If difference between this year Jackson squad then the 2012-2013 Jackson team... They had Winky at qb and Johnny Dummore at WR and A better coaching staff and a overall better team.. This years team ai t nowhere close to that team...

You from dade so u know better then I ever would so I can’t disagree but I believe their defense is better this year tho or like u said it could be because of the competition they have faced. But gibbons shouldn’t over look them tho.

    • I suddenly wish Bridgewater had known he was breaking the rules and kept it on the DL.  He obviously cares a lot about that program and those kids.  Hate to see a guy who cares like that get taken down while the true cheaters are out there doing their thing.
    • Yes, the free market should be allowed to draw the lines between amateurism and professionalism. The beauty of playing strictly for the love of the game will certainly be allowed to persist. And, kids and adults alike play A LOT of games for fun as it is. See adult rec leagues, intramurals etc. This includes those who've been able to become wealthy through playing the sport as well!  I think that, eventually, people like most all of us are going to recognize that it is preposterous to have teenagers getting paid to play high school sports, and/or get a free college education along with the extra compensation. Most of us have been fans of the game and of the school, not the "star" athletes. In the long run, I don't think there will be much of a market for paid teenager athletes. But, if someone is willing to part with their $ to allow a kid to be less poor, and that means that School A easily crushes the competition, I don't think that's a bad thing. It IS a thing that will cause a great many people to lose interest. And that will in turn diminish the market, which will of course mean kids aren't making any money anyway. At issue, as I keep harping on, is the fact that the "big time" sports world where NIL money is available is an entirely different, beast of an animal that K-12 schools and even universities are not equipped to manage. Nor should they be. Big time, for profit sports should be separated from schools. The mission of the two entities is competely misaligned. 
    • It is somewhat understandable for a guy who's passionate about the sport, and who reached very close to the pinnacle of it, to be dismissive of the many dimwits making the rules who have none of the above characteristics. And, he may also be considering the possibility that calling attention to the (perhaps) absurd nature of the rules and/or the dearth of funding in high school football may be worth it in the big picture. He's almost certainly going to have the opportunity to coach at the higher levels, and is not likely to be at Norhwestern for very long, anyway. He may make a bigger impact long-term/big picture doing this sort of thing than just winning a couple state titles and jetting.
    • I think the argument is this:  if 'free adults are allowed to give gifts to poor kids who happen to be good at sports,' we move from an amateur environment into a professional environment.   Historically, high school sports, college sports and even the Olympics were reserved solely for amateur athletes.  Within the last couple of decades, the barriers for professionals started to erode for the Olympics.   You may recall that Jim Thorpe won gold medals in track in the 1912 Olympics, but was stripped of those medals because he had played minor league (or "semipro") baseball prior to participating in the Olympics.   Ultimately, those medals were restored a few years ago.  The USA Olympic basketball team used to be comprised only of college players.  Now, it's all pros (with one or two college stars).  Within the last 5-10 years, NIL changes have permitted college athletes to receive compensation. Before then, the rules in place for decades allowed college student-athletes to receive room, board and tuition.  The $100 post-game handshakes from alums in the locker room and brown paper bags filled with money - although they happened everywhere - were illegal (and arguably still are; they just don't happen as much because the athletes can receive money legally through NIL). The NIL world is quickly filtering down to the high school level.  However, the rules in most all states, and certainly in Florida, are rooted in the concept that only amateur athletes can compete in high school sports.   And if you allow athletes to receive gifts, or otherwise compensate them or their families, such athletes are no longer considered amateurs.   Simply put, the rules has always been that if you get compensated to do play a sport, you are considered a professional.  And professionals cannot participate in amateur sports.  Again, the rules in place (FHSAA Rules) are rooted in a clear distinction between amateur sports and professional sports.  There was a clear line that is slowly becoming more and more blurred. If you want the argument as to why the rule makes sense, I think it is this:   there is a certain beauty in amateur sports, knowing that everyone who is playing is playing for the love of the game and not for money.  Everything changes once you start compensating athletes.  As I have stated before, the concept of compensation is a slippery slope.  What do you allow and what don't you?   FHSAA rules prohibiting impermissible benefits were written before Uber even existed. But the rule is pretty clear:  if you give something to football players that you don't give to all other students, that's an impermissible benefit - especially if the benefit is given to entice a kid to come to your school.   If you allow schools/coaches/alums to compensate kids to play sports, then you take away the somewhat-level playing field.  And, over time, certain schools will dominate high school sports because they will have the financial wherewithal to attract the most talented athletes.  While this might be good for the handful of select, talented athletes, everyone else suffers.   I guess the real question is whether we just want to eliminate the distinction between amateur athletics and professional athletics altogether and simply allow the free-market system to play out for all athletes and all schools?  If you're inclined to answer this question with a "yes," I have only six words for you:  be careful what you wish for.   
    • Yes of course big shot, how dare anyone try to help some young man out with a generous offer from his own pocket! Did the new pinstripe suits arrive yet from Brooks Brothers, F. Lee Bailey, Clarence Darrow Jr?!
