Can we get some inside info??  Any of the ineligible players important?  Crazy news before the big game!

Damn! But aside from losing their unbeaten record, it does not have much effect since these were non district games. Even if Central beats them, they should still get an at large birth given their schedule strength. So it looks like these were two international students. How does that even make sense? Not much American football is played outside this country on a competitive basis.

No idea, maybe a kid moved to the area from the Caribbean?  I don't see it either.   Carol City gets local transfers never heard of them getting anything international.

Maybe, but it usually takes a year or two for kids from Haiti or Jamaica to pick up the game, by which time they should have normalized their status and been good to play.

They know the game. But have not played competitively. It takes some transition time. Anyway, I still find it strange that this had to do with two international players.

A lot of both Haitians and Jamaicans in the Carol City/Norland area. In general a lot of Caribbean people live in that area. CC is luck that the forfeits were not two district games. But even if it were, chances are they would still make the playoffs though it may have been as a 7 or 8 seed.

Carol City does not have 10-11 FBS Commits on there defense, period. STA does. Ask STA if Central can ball!

STA had also never played Central ever.   Central’s running game out of the spread is a thing of beauty and they’d never faced it.   STA thought, like we all did, that they’d be able to stuff the run, but Central just spread them out and STA didn’t adjust.   

Carol City plays Central 1-2 times a year.   They know what’s coming.

    • Perhaps the best RB in Tampa Bay iin 2023 saw his program close, and is looking for a home. If he stays in the area,Venice is a good bet. (Lakeland may be as well).
    • And if that same newsletter asked the Osceola County Sheriff Department, what do you think the response would be? If you asked, members of the Chamber of Commerce? (Essentially a union of businesses) If you asked a group of nurses? If you asked a group of lawyers? Also a union cares about the working conditions of their members, but the working conditions of teachers are the learning conditions of students as well. People are attracted to careers because of the values that come with those careers. Political Parties attract people based on their values. So it shouldn't be surprising that certain professions attract certain people in certain careers. You act as if the principal's first question when we have a 5,000+ teachers shortage in this state is "who do you vote for? And are you a member of the union?"
    • I feel like y'all are always solid so I don't see y'all going no worse than 7-3. Biggest question mark for Cocoa is their O-line since they are only returning 1 and on the defensive side they only return their blue chip edge in their front 7 
    • Coach Wiseman, let me just preface this by saying that you were the best HC Sarasota's program has had in the last 20+ years. You brought them from being a perpetual losing program to the doorstep of competing with Venice for a district title and a deep playoff run. SHS will curse the day they fired you now that they are back in a rut. You are a true class act, and nothing will ever convince me otherwise.  Our backfield is certainly sparse right now. We do have Dorian Jones, a rising sophomore runningback whom did considerably well considering his limited playing time last season. Our offense will need an overhaul with the graduation of 3 offensive linemen and almost our entire receiving corps. Our defensive line will be strong with the return of Ke'shawn Vaughn, Elijah Jones, and Asharri Charles. Our linebacking corps graduates virtually everybody but should have at least one bright spot with the return of Ben Zarkawiecz. Our defensive backfield is still a work in progress with the graduation of Lester and Platt. At the moment, we have more question marks than exclamation points. And that's not a good feeling with the kind of competition Venice is going to face. 
    • It's possible that they find their stride by week 5, but at the moment we just don't have the on-paper talent to compete with teams like Miami NW, IMG National, Cocoa, or Bishop Verot. If Venice can find a way to go 7-3 with that schedule I would be happy
