you have 5 head coaches.  I hope they get along with each other

Actually Brian Allen was voted to be the head coach

 

The other 4 are assistant coaches as I took the 5 longest tenured and winningest coaches in history of Columbia to claim the coach slots

Definitely check it out, also got a lot of good stuff on the website in general

So, I assume these players were all-time best at Columbia. But I noticed that no one was listed before the 1940s. And, I believe Columbia has been around before 1940 and probably played football before then. Is there any reason no "golden age" old timers were not on your list? Lack of information, etc.?

1940 was the earliest nomination we received when doing the list, unfortunately nominations were needed because information on the older teams were nearly impossible to come by

Makes sense. The people knowledgeable of those teams have probably all died off by now.

I played for Columbia High from 87-89.  Gary Atkins and Scott Adams were outstanding linemen who should get some recognition.  Kipp Davis, the FB was a beast!

Everything was nomination based because of not having access to rosters in that era (the downside to doing this for a school not very good at keeping records) 

 

Though what was your thoughts on the list overall? You still keep up with the team?

No, I keep track of their results yearly though.  I joined the Marine Corps out of high school and retired in 2011, settling in Virginia.  I teach and coach at a high school up here.

Hello, and welcome to this message board. I was wondering how you would describe the state of High School Football in the Old Dominion State? How is the officiating, the coaching, the state Association etc? Also, what part of Virginia do you coach and teach? Thank you for your military service.

VA HS football is not what FL HS football is...or at least was.  There is no Spring football, only 7 on 7 flag football.  There is less emphasis on football here.  A lot less community support and involvement than what we had in Lake City in the 90s.  Having said that there are certainly programs here that could compete in FL just not across the board.  Each year there are realistically about 2-4 teams in each classification (6 total) that compete for the state title.  Officiating is awful.  I teach and coached at King George HS about 20 miles east of Fredericksburg.

Thank you, would you be willing to expand on the "officiating is awful" comment?

    • 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.
