So I noticed that both Venice and Columbia High are both playing this school in 2019. I’ve never heard of them before, is this their first year in existence? Venice dropped Clearwater for a week 4 bye, to play AAC week 11. Any thoughts on this? Anyone know anything about this school?

It sounds like Clearwater Academy dropped Venice, not Venice dropping them.

AA Christian (which is what most are going to call them) has been around a few years as a school, but this will be their first year as a program. They are going to play the schedule that Grant Technical & Education Center was going to play.

Venice may not have had much left to choose from when Clearwater Academy dropped them. I'm sure Venice was happy to have a bye week 11 right before the playoffs start. AA Christian may not even be able to field a team come week 11. Not an ideal situation at all. Not sure what week Columbia plays AA Christian but maybe Columbiafan can feed us some info.:D

No what happened was CAI thought they were playing Venice week 7. Venice scheduled St Frances Academy week 7 and gave Clearwater Academy the contract with week 4 on it. Clearwater Academy was already booked for week 4 so the game fell apart. 

CAI didn’t cancel on them. Venice found AA Academy. They were going by the name Grant Career Tech but split from that part of the school. AA Academy is also playing First Academy, Crescent City, Miami Christian and Superior Collegiate to my knowledge.

Interesting... and word on the street now is the AA Academy games with Columbia and Venice have been called off.

It’s interesting st frances is playing so many schools from Florida in one year especially with how good they are I wonder how that works.

 

do other schools piggy back off the next school schedule I’m sure all of these head coaches didn’t just have st frances on their minds to play this year lol.

I'm sure any program wanting to make a impression nationally would want to face St Frances who is one of the most talented teams in the nation 

 

Hell I would like to see Columbia add them to list next year if all possible

    • TFA was doing way more than just a few slap on the wrist actions.  They are recruiting around the state and haven't stopped.  MNW probably has an outcry because a coach did it out of the kindness of his heart and love for the kids.  Hard to look at that in the same way as TFA which is all business and gives zeros shits about their kids. To be fair, TFA kids give zero shits about their school as it is a mutual business decision.  However, rules are rules and Teddy broke the rules so consequences are due no matter the intent.
    • I know "communism" is a common scare word brought up in the political world just to easily dismiss any ideas of a shared revenue concept.  In the world of sports, uncapped spending creates a great divide in competitiveness and hurts the sport overall.  If we didn't have any type of distributed money from the government, only a few schools could afford to field a team.  Football is incredibly expensive compared to other sports.  The big programs do in fact have a huge budget advantage over the field despite the shared revenue anyway.  The solution to this is actually to do whatever other states are doing to fund their programs.  Georgia coaches make serious money and coaching is a legit career there.  How do they afford it while Florida sucks ass?
    • The question i have is & im being serious when I ask this ; what is the difference between northwestern & the first academy.    because the first academy got hit with one of the harshest punishments ive seen recently for doing basically the same thing. Paying for uber rides & other incentives to the players in need & for a lot of the transfers that transferred to TFA but didn’t have transportation to & from.    & there was NO out cry. Matter fact everyone said TFA got what they deserved. But in MNW case it’s all hell broke loose. Is it because who the head coach is ? Or is it because teddy explained what all the money he spent was for ? …….
    • If we keepin it real. Before last year northwestern was known by name, and last history but, their product on the field was avg at best. Their last title was in 2019 & after that they had a 1 or 2 4-6 or 5-5 seasons after.    & most will say they only won the championship last year because outside of central who had to forfeit 3A and the teams that’s in it is HORRENDOUS.    teddy becoming the head coach of the west single handily had transfers legal and illegal coming in left and right because he’s a former/active nfl player & lets face it in 2025 the kids love to follow the hype.    having a face like teddy on the sidelines automatically guarantee that entire team all types of connects, endorsements, exposure & etc. 
    • Nolebull, I'm not sure who you're referring to when you talk about the "jealous" and "disdainful" people.  Bridgewater has put the MNW administrators in between a rock and a hard place.   He basically came right out and said "I've been breaking the rules and if you don't like it, tough sh*t."  The MNW admin folks have two choices:  try to take matters into their own hands in hopes that the FHSAA will go easy on them or, alternatively, put their collective heads into the sand, ignore Bridgewater's public confession and hope that the matter quietly goes away.  Oh, and it ain't going away.
