SO I JUST GOT FINAL WORD THAT DILARD WILL BE TRAVELING TO BREADENTON TO FACE IMG ACADEMY ...SOO YOUR THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS????

I am not very familiar but i do know a decent amount about IMG as i am originally from that area. It will be a very tough game for anyone playing IMG. The only schools in the state that I can think of that have similar or greater talent as IMG would be Trinity Christian( plays at IMG this year as well), Booker T. Washington, Saint Thomas Aquinas and First Coast. IMG is led by 3 future D1 lineman up front. In particular they have 3 lineman who are 6-5 275+ led by Tyree St. Louis who is 6-5 305 and hold many D1 offers. They don't have as many skill players as they did last year but in particular they have 6-2 QB Deiondre Francis who holds offers from schools such as UF and Oregon among many others. Defensively they are awaiting the transfer of 6-1 CB Marcus Lewis who is committed to UF. It will be a tough task for sure against a fairly loaded squad but they can be beat as it was shown last year, (Trinity Christian and Naples High) Here is the Sarasota Herald Tribune's preview on IMG for next year http://preps.heraldtribune.com/2014/05/27/football-check-img/

Also, i liken IMG alot to Montverde in basketball, as both schools recruit but are not allowed to recruit guys from Florida, the guys from Florida technically if they go to IMG are supposed to go on their own accord without IMG being involved but many times that is not the case. But for the most part IMG recruits guys from out of state, last year they brought in most notably Michael O'Connor at Quarterback from the Baylor school in TN who was committed to Penn State at one point but not sure if he ended up their and Bo Scarborough from Alabama who is at Alabama now. They lost a lot of talent from last years team most notably, O'Connor, Scarborough, their DE who led the state with 18.5 sacks and CB Matt Boatand who is at Kansas this year. I would say from what I know athlete wise they are down but they will lean heavily on the running game this year with 3 massive lineman leading the way, last year's line was bigger than quite a few D1 teams, and will feature a 4 star Dual Threat QB in Deondre Francois. They also return a strong LB core and will be boosted in the secondary with Marcus Lewis arriving at Cb

      Lake Minneola New HC Quit After 3 days

      So your saying if a team has like 15 transfers in one season,  I need to have like a team of investigators and video tape to realize that the coach is recruiting. Come on. The truth is all of the super teams recruit and yes some players come because of the winning culture. I know its impossible to get full proof  on everyone that cheats and even when they do have evidence and catch teams red handed like Winter Park.....NOTHING HAPPENED. Its the reason they should have competitive promotion and demotion so all the super teams who do bend (CHEAT) the rules get to beat each other up.

      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

      Are you saying illegal recruiting does not occur in Florida ?     Wake up and take your blinders off

      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.
