I think we should all get over this "Madison is only good because they are in 1A fairy tale".

2011 - Class 3A   13-2

2012 - Class 3A    12-3

2013 - Class 4A     5-5 (probably adjusting to 4A play)

2014 - Class 4A    11-4

Madison, like Pahokee, is an exceptional team that would be competitive in any class. So, please, everyone let's end this false premise once and for all.  

Great info, I don’t know much about them so I don’t know their history but from what I see just off results their a Florida powerhouse that’s nothing to play with year in & out.

2020 got more transfers went 15-0 beating STA in a rematch. Calling it now.

2021  Edgewater coach gets suspended for 8 games and fined $5,000 for recruiting violations and/or team forced to forfeit multiple games because on an ineligible players.    

(Editor's note:  post is not intended to insinuate that Edgewater has done either of those things thus far; instead, it's intended to make the point that once a program rises to the top of mountain, it typically wants to stay there . . . and it's a lot harder to stay on top for a sustained period of time than it is to put together a good run for one or two seasons).

The school is not overcrowded. It has 8A capacity but only 7A enrollment. So, unless there is evidence of blatant contact with kids, they have pretty much a blank check to recruit in the environment we are currently in.

Unless you put it in writing or on a video they can't prove it.

Yes , how does a team go from multiple bad seasons, or average seasons. To almost beating the king of Florida. Even if they were loaded. STA should have won big.

I attended the 8A title game, and Edgewater looked like the better, more physical team to me. A couple of turnovers in the second half really coast the Eagles, and contributed to STA points. Edgewater very easily could, and possibly should, have won that football game.

Darter, can explain what you mean by this?   Clearly, a school that has capacity can accept transfers or incoming students who live in other districts.   But what does "blank check to recruit in the environment we are currently in" mean?

It means an enterprising coaching staff that goes about it in a discrete way, can get transfers in without much hassle or fear of fines or suspensions. Now if you do it the Manatee way (see other post), then that would be problematic. 

Edgewater shares boundaries with: Jones (to the southwest), Evans (to the northwest), Wekiva (north, northwest), Winter Park (to the east) and Boone (to the southeast). All of these schools have talent in their zones. And none are that far from Edgewater. Getting transfers in from any of them would not be much of a hassle. Of course, the same would apply to Edgewater kids seeking a new home.

Aside from Oak Ridge and district schools, South Lake and Forest, which are very weak (or were last year), this is a solid schedule.

Assuming they return all the impact kids and get a few key transfers or kids moving up from Freshman class with talent, I could see them going somewhere between 10-0 and 8-2  in the regular season (assuming we have one).

Personally, I would love to see Edgewater resume its rivalry with Apopka. In the first decade of this century this was the game of the week in greater Orlando.

It would be a good game.  Madison county has a fine program with one douchebag fan.  That kid is going to be really special for Madison in a few years.

Nah this season. He might be one of Florida's best to ever play.
