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.

    • 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  
    • They can definitely beat Central. My bulls is a toss up but I feel we should have the edge. EJ will be hard to stop though. Glad they not in 2A with us.
