The numbers below, derived from the data above, hit you in the face.  First number below after each county name is # of public school title game appearances, and second number is the same for private schools.  Although one can debate how actively the private schools in Duval and Broward counties have recruited talent over the years, it's pretty hard to deny that those same private schools have not had a had substantial impact on the performance of surrounding public schools.   

No other counties have anything like the ratios we see in Broward and Duval counties.   Counties whose public school districts are dwarfed by these two have had more public school success in making the state title game. 

Broward   15/36  (only public schools have won a state title in the past 30 years-Ely, Flanagan and Miramar)

Duval   11/37

 

Miami-Dade  47/14

Polk   37/4

Palm Beach   32/29

Hillsborough   27/5

Brevard   21/0

Leon   21/11

Escambia   18/1

Okaloosa   16/0

Manatee   14/0

Orange   12/4

St Johns   10/0

Madsion 9/0

Alachua   8/0

Marion   6/4

Pinellas   5/5

Broward County has 29 public schools that must compete for talent with 8 major private schools.  For comparison, Hillsborough County has 26 public schools with 3 main private schools(Berkeley, Catholic and Jesuit) competing for talent.  And Orange County has 19 public schools with 2 main private schools (Bishop Moore, Lake Highland Prep) competing for talent.

      NORTH vs SOUTH FLORIDA

      North Florida is closer to South Florida than it has been since the early 90’s. The results show it.

      4A Region 2 - A Look Ahead

      By OldSchoolLion · Posted

      4 returning playoff teams will be in this region next season(those with double asterisks).  2 of them (South Sumter and Villages) were in this region last season.  Cocoa and Astronaut both move over from 4A Region 3.  Despite a very successful season, Astronaut was no match for Cocoa in the playoffs, losing 35-0.  If Cocoa did not win the region, it would be a shocker.  Team records from last season are listed below. **Villages 11-1 **Astronaut 10-2 **Cocoa 10-4 Space Coast 6-4 Keystone Heights 5-5 **South Sumter 5-6 Lake Highland Prep 4-6 Palatka 3-7 Cypress Creek 3-7 Hudson 2-8 Umatilla 0-10 Lake Highland Prep

      4A Region 1 - An Early Look

      By OldSchoolLion · Posted

      8 of the 11 teams in the region made the playoffs last year(those with a double asterisk), but only a couple had records worth bragging about.  Even 0-9 Gadsden and 2-6 Rutherford made the playoffs.  5 of the 8 teams were in this region last season (italicized below).   Santa Fe and Bradford both move over from 4A Region 2.  Raines moves out of the region, but Bolles moves down from 5A after a respectable playoff performance last year.  One would have to think Bolles will dominate the region like Raines did, even in a "down" year.  Team records from last season are listed below.   **West Nassau 9-3 **Bolles 8-5 **South Walton 6-5 **Marianna 5-5-1 **Santa Fe 5-6 **Bradford 5-6 **Rutherford 2-7 Fernandina Beach 2-8 Bay 1-6 North Bay Haven 0-6 **Gadsden 0-10

      Good try, but no. Think which team in south FL has won a LOT of games over the years.
