Is Tampa Bay Tech legitimate this year? I don't think they have ever advanced past the Regional Finals, but the Laz Index has them ranked #5 in the state with a game against an 0-2 Plant. Is this the year that somebody breaks the Plant/Armwood stranglehold on Hillsborough County?

What website is the laz index on ? And are they legit

I would absolutely consider them legit. They have been doing this a long time and their results are definitely more right than they are wrong. @LAZL is on these boards frequently, I believe and he can tell you more about how his formula works. 

He got us ranked as #29 in the state. Which says alot.

They are legit... They should beat Plant pretty easily but I think Armwood would beat them.  They can go far but I don't see state title holder.

Its say nothing, watch it progress as the season goes on.  Its an algorithm.... again he been doing this since before both of us been born and has a very high accuracy rate of picking final 4s and state champs.

Oh i wasnt saying in a bad way being ranked as the 29th best team in florida is about right we still have alot to prove.

TBT's problem is that they are in the same region with Armwood and Lakeland.   Only one of those three teams can advance to the final four.

TBT is legitimate.   The QB is smooth and calm in the pocket with a nice touch on short balls.  Their O-line is good, especially the left tackle (#70?).  Receivers have good speed and good hands.  Kicking game was sound.  Defense swarmed to the ball and made some big plays.  That said, Plant was able to move the ball on them, albeit not consistently. 

Traditionally, TBT seemed to find a way to shoot themselves in the foot in close games.   They were able to build a big enough lead Friday night that we didn't get to see them tested with adversity. 

Compared to past TBT teams, they seemed to have more depth and better coaching.  TBT's test will come in October, with consecutive games against Bloomingdale (on the road), Armwood (at home) and Gaither (at home, but unlike the first two, this isn't a district game). 

Based on the personal eye-ball test, I think Armwood's a TD or so better than TBT.  That doesn't mean that TBT's not capable of beating Armwood, but I think Armwood still has he edge on the Titans.

    • Just wait till spring is over and the top RB in the area will take his talent to 1 Indian Ave. 
    • This will be an interesting story to follow.  Venice has no proven RB headed in to spring which will be a first for a long time.  They have produced several Dairy Farmers player of the years in that position.  They also will have a massive offensive line with 2 three year starters who return as well as some stud young kids.  They will probably average around 6'4 295 on the line which is huge for Venice standards.  I just wonder if this will change before the start of the season.  I still fell like someone will show up.
    • Are you still talking to me??  Thought I was pretty clear for you not to waste your breath on this subject matter, but somehow you are missing the point.  Teacher unions have limited power in FL because the candidates they overwhelming support keep losing.  If they had won, the teacher union vote had a lot to do with it and would be wielding that power.  Osceola county which isn't a GOP stronghold during the past two national elections had the journalism students for the OHS monthly newsletter (Kowboy Jake) interview the faculty as to their political leanings.  A sample of about 30 teachers that were interviewed were voting as follows:  25 D vs 5 R.  Enough said.  
    • You missed the point of my union post. Teacher unions in strong union states have power. Florida unions have zero. They cant strike and the school board can implement a contract without the unions approval. Florida unions are not preventing any raise in Florida. The state has attacked a straw man here.
