Looks like Trinity Catholic will be back into giving football players scholarships.  I wonder how far that van will travel to get them this time.  In two years they will be back to what they were.  Vanguard is heading the wrong way.  Kids already leaving there.

This time around for Brantley they dont need a van, they need a charter bus! Because a van full athletes from Ocala public high schools wont fill all the holes they need. Pretty soon though they will be back to being the most hated team in the county and PROSETEYE will still be DELUSIONAL to the fact.

Hmmmmmmm. What holes are those since you know so much? When was the last Celtic's game you attended?

Since it is so funny what did I say that was false?  Brantley will recruit the shit out of the area.  Trinity Catholic will be relevant again.

Here is something funny.  Brantley recruited all those kids to Belleview, then he left and then the kids all bailed and the next coach quit.  

 

With the Rattlers’ season beginning in one month with its kickoff classic against Trinity Catholic on Aug. 24, Mike Kelly turned in his resignation Tuesday, leaving BHS athletic director Brian Fennewald scrambling to find a replacement head coach with fall practice set to begin on July 30.

“The easy/short answer to why Mike stepped down is with all of these new transfer rules set in place, it has made coaching at the high school level more about recruiting than coaching, and he doesn’t want to play that game,” Fennewald said.

“I do not blame him at all for leaving,” Fennewald said. “He spent so much time with his players, molding and shaping them into respectable young men. And now, most of them are gone. We have had 11 starters from our spring game leave the program and are now at other schools.”

What is so funny is that all of the public schools recruit and have been recruiting for years. Trinity, being a private school where pretty high tuition has to be paid, puts them at a huge disadvantage. Most parents of public school students don't have that type of money. Also, a lot of public school students can't get into Trinity because they can't meet the requisites. Over the years the Celtics have had just as many players leave for public schools as they have taken players from public schools. I know as I've supported the team since the days of Kerwin Bell. Brantley is a winning coach and the reason why players want to play for him.

You are delusional.

Can Marion County just go back to pre-1970 days when it was just the Ocala High Wildcats? 
 

Dunnellon,  Lake Weir and Reddick High didnt really offer competition in those days. 
 

Fun fact. The towns of Anthony, Fort McCoy and Summerfield in Marion County all had separate high schools and played Six-Man football in the Little Ten Conference with teams from Waldo, White Springs, Melrose and Cedar Key. Current 11 man teams that played 6 man in that conference are Bell, Bronson, Dunnellon, and Hawthorne

      Teddy Bridgewater begs for donations

      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.
