Going to do my best to compile a list of available streams, both free and paid (NFHS), for each week of the season. There is nothing like sitting in the stands watching a high school football game. BUT, there is also nothing like a sitting on the couch, cold beer in hand, streaming 5-10 of the best games in the state NFL RedZone-style. If you know of any other streams, please let me know so that I can update the original post. Here is what I've got so far:

Good stuff.  Thanks. 

Related question:  if your rival team or that thorn-in-your-side-come-playoffs team is playing an OOS game, do you want to see them win? 

When Lee or Gainesville play any major games i hope they get blasted by 50 or 60 points lol 

 

I wouldn't gain anything by them winning those games

 

 

Also @XDC nice list of games, I may have to check some out

This is the link for Cooper City vs Ridley,PA 

http://papreplive.com/football/event/32957/

LOL. ANYTHING involving a Florida team vs. a team from another state is automatically better than almost any in-state match up to you. Lakeland-Manatee? Garbage game, Manatee sucks etc. But, Cooper City vs. Ridley, PA? Better be quick to share that streaming link. lol

It's still two of the more successful programs in state history. Manatee hasn't been an elite team the last few years. But, they've also been unfairly characterized as garbage by some of the national board folks. It's a proud program and they should have a pretty good team again. Saying they suck or aren't worthy watching simply because they probably don't have a team worthy of national rankings is absurd. It's bad for HS football, IMO.

If it ends up being a running clock game, of course I get why folks would tune away at that point. But, it's 0-0 as we speak :)

Those in Jax can watch 

1) Bartram Trail vs Lee (1pm)

2) Atlantic Coast vs Mandarin (4pm)

3) Bolles vs UC (7pm)

All on Channel 4 this Saturday. Give me BT, Mandarin, and Bolles to win.

First of all it’s a link of a game, asshole. There was no rule about what games to post. 

And what if there was a Cooper City fan, or Broward County following that may be interested. 

The game might be steamed by someone or a company that I’m cool with and I’m giving them a shoutout. 

Your just a butt hurt punk that is mad that Manatee stinks. They are a name. And the incompetent coach they hired will keep them that way. Manatee will beat Alonso and Palm Harbor type teams, but Lakeland is gonna embarrass them.

There is zero evidence to support your assertion that Manatee stinks. Certainly, last season's results do not support it. Believe it or not, there is a MASSIVE world of football teams in between stacked, top 25 national teams and teams who "stink". Teams that aren't national rankings-worthy, but are still good teams. Manatee was a good, but not great, team last year. This year remains to be seen. But, there are reasons to believe they will be as good or better than last year.

Manatee lost to every single good team they played and the best win was against a team outside the top 500. 

There is not one thing you can point to from last year that said Manatee was good. When Palmetto is your best of the best victories, then your not very good. 

Pretty simple actually

There is no such thing as a "top 500". It's a figment of the imagination of the national board (and Ned's) mind.

Manatee won a road playoff game against one of the top ranked teams in 8A. They also played Braden River close, even when BR had a star player playing who missed most of the other big games for BR. They were good. I said they weren't great. Somehow, out of that, you've decided that means they "stink". That's stupid.

No win on their schedule was against a top team from any class. 

Lost to all the good and great teams. Beat all the average and bad teams.

They are in the middle. I wouldn’t say good. But I wouldn’t say garbage either. 

Somewhere in between. lol

Osceola was seen as a top team in 8A up until Manatee beat them. (Again, I acknowledge NOTHING from calpreps).

It's been 25 years since I lived in Tampa Bay area, but back then Bradenton Manatee was always a force in HS football. Teams change from year to year and unless you have a easy transfer rule in place, it's possible for schools to hit dry spells. Here in Orlando, you can't keep track of who's going where. It's like the NCAA transfer portal. Free agency will result in several super teams while others will become non-competitive. It kind of loses the home town appeal.

    • Nolebull, You are making a good argument for what the rule ought to be or why the rule ought to be changed.   I'm telling you what the rule is.  Interestingly, I witnessed first hand the FHSAA deal with a case that was very similar to the (presumably, hypothetical) one you just described.  A family provided a kid with a bed for the night because that kid had an unfortunate family situation that would have left him homeless for the night had a teammate's family not stepped up and given him a place to stay for the night.  Yep, you got it, impermissible benefit.  Coach and school penalized.  The difficulty is coming up with rules that can't be taken advantage of.  Where do you draw the line?   If paying for an Uber is OK, why can't you just buy the kid a car instead?  More convenient for all parties.  If you can buy a kid a meal, why can't you take his family grocery shopping and let them stock up?  Or, better yet, just give then a gift card and let them spend the money as they please.  What do you do when one school offers up a $1,000 gift card, but another school is willing to give the kid a $2,000 gift card?  Do we really want to turn high school sports into professional sports?
    • Some kids NEED to transfer to get in the best position to change the trajectory of their entire life. Could literally save their life. Difference between going to college and being stuck in your neighborhood getting lost to streets.    And I can only speak for myself, but I’m more interested in a at-risk kid changing his situation for the better in hopes of saving his life than your favorite high school team losing a game because he transferred from your favorite school. 
    • I wouldn’t be so critical of the FHSAA if they didn’t lie and say they give 2 craps about student athletes. I wish people would just be honest. But I guess if they were honest, it would mess up their hustle. 
    • Wait are you saying there is a rule that bars an adult mentor who coaches young men a sport from helping a struggling student athlete and his family with transportation? Whoa that’s next level crazy.    “Hey coach I’m on the side of the road and almost got hit. I’m miles from school and it’s 110 degrees out. Can you get me a ride?” ”Sorry. Some turds 6 hours away in Gainesville said I can’t. Hope you don’t get hit or pass out.” 
    • Say what you want, justify it however you want, wish the rules weren't what they are, but there is no question that a coach or other school representative paying for Uber rides for kids playing sports is a violation of the existing FHSAA rules.  Period.  And Teddy Bridgewater may be or have been an elite athlete, may be or become an excellent high school football coach, and/or may have his heart in the right place, but tweeting out a message to the world that you have done something that undoubtedly constitutes a violation of the rules is just plain stupid.
