Are they speaking all-time or this season?

Idk you tell me 

 

I copied and pasted it 

 

Congrats to Raines becoming champs again. Tbh I honestly think that Jacksonville have 5 out of 25 best powerhouse high school football programs in Florida. Raines, Lee, Trinity, Bolles, and Mandarin. Reason why i put Lee and Mandarin is because both have one of the toughest schedules in there district.

I have to agree  Schedule wise for Lee and Mandarin.  I think as it stands this year, those teams can hold there own against most schools.  This year was big for Mandarin as I expect kids to begin flooding the transfer list for football again now. A few head coach transitions hurt them. I think this coach has stabilized things.

Which one of these if any are top 25 FL PROGRAMS? 

Raines...maybe.  They have been qualifying for state title games since the 70's.  As of now they are the only Gateway school with any titles.  Waiting to see if we can add Mandarin to that list.  Mandarin has no history, other than this year and 2015.  Lee comes and goes, but hasn't qualified for a title game since the 60's.  Bolles and TCA's success can be directly linked to a single coach for each school.  One recently retired (Bolles) and the TCA coach probably isn't too far behind.  Prior to those coaches, Bolles was decent and TCA was a lay up for anyone on their schedule.

Edgewater blew Lee to shreads,  i can't see Lee even competing with the other powerhouses in the larger classifications 

 

Their big wins were a 1 score win over raines week 1 (they also beat them last year only to lose in first round) and Columbia (who was down to a 3rd string qb after they knocked the starter out for second time that season and the backup got benched after a quarter of playing) 

 

Lakeland beating Edgewater like they did didn't exactly help Lee argument either

I do see potential with Mandarin being able to grow into a powerhouse they just aren't a powerhouse yet

Mandarin has always been known as sort of a sleeping giant since it opened in 1990.  Lots of resources and community support, but could never get the right guy in there to make it happen.  Coaches would just come and go, so no one really paid them any attention until recently.

Haha, Lee was on the wrong side of Karma.  If a certain officiating crew could actually count they probably wouldn't have even played Edgewater.

Well, hopefully Mandarin can get it done Saturday or at least be consistent in the upcoming years.  We don't need any more of going from first to worst.....like Flanagan has done.

Flanagan fell apart after a major coaching exodus 

 

If mandarin can maintain stability they should be fine

Not surprising really.  Too bad they only pay coaches a little stipend, basically the same little stipend I got for being a tech coordinator while teaching elementary school.  Believe me, it wasn't much.  Then they wonder why coaches leave and go to Alabama...just using that as an example. Well....pay them something and they may stay.

    • Okay, how about that STA vs. Ida Baker matchup in your first round?  Does your analogy extend to South Florida slappies?  My opinion is simply that no one (except CoachGraham, apparently) would be interested in the 1 vs. 512, 2 vs. 511, and 200 other mismatches such a format would produce, regardless of geography.  But I could be wrong.  And now I'm thinking I should have skipped college.  
    • Complaining about North Florida slappies losing to South Florida powers is like someone graduating high school complaining that companies are only hiring college graduates and not them. And then a company saying ok to make it fair, we will open division and only hire high school graduates.     
    • First I want to express my apologies for my absence the last few months. Without going into much detail I have had some personal life struggles I have been dealing with on top of figuring out the direction to take FloridaHSFootball.com in. Things have finally settled out some over the last few weeks although I am not completely out of the woods just yet. Some of the decisions about what direction to take FloridaHSFootball.com have been forming over this time while I went through things. Part of me wondered if it was time to go, but really it is not at all. Thankfully, a loyal supporter near me in Gainesville decided to put their mouth where their money is and did a little investing and today FloridaHSFootball.com launched its first-ever Mobile App. With that said it comes with the sunset of the MVP Membership Subscriptions and thus FloridaHSFootball.com will be 100% free for the first time in a while. This comes as needing to get the clearances with Apple and Google and the current subscription platform we have is not syncing with Apple's system nor with the App itself. Its best we go in this direction to grow fans again and being able to put them facing forward with an app on their phone going forward. Here are the download links for the apps: iOS (Apple): https://apps.apple.com/us/app/floridahsfootball-com/id6477621728 Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.floridahsfootball.app&hl=en_US&gl=US   For now the forums will not be available directly in the app. At some point I maybe looking at changing the whole forum software that could eventually integrate into the app. It will be a while before this happens so things will go on as they are here.   I also apologize for any of the spam and troll accounts that have managed to find their way around the security protocols in setting up new accounts. It seems every day these things find ways to pass through control systems. I am going to be looking at getting this solved and will keep an eye on things here as we go along.   Please feel free to reach out to me if you all need anything, want to chat or have any suggestions.   -- Josh
