As long as we're passing out hints, and for anyone who may have recently subscribed to Disney Plus . . .

"Now, turns out we have a secret weapon!
An immigrant you know and love who’s unafraid to step in!
He’s constantly confusin’, confoundin’ the British henchmen
Ev’ryone give it up for America’s favorite fighting Frenchman!

Apparently some so-called hs football experts don't know the great, modern day coaches in their region of the state.:rolleyes:  I guess "local" for some is only within 10 miles of home.B)

He is from north Central FL, not too terribly far from a place called Lake City:rolleyes:

I wonder if our friend knows anything about American history? Or what dressing most people put on a sandwich.

Prep roundup: Longtime Lafayette High football coach Pearson ...

Joey Pearson 

 

Lafayette

 

 

And you do realize I'm not within 10 miles of my own school or any school for that matter, and I don't follow Lafayette in anything but softball because it's only sport I've seen us play them in lately, we haven't played Lafayette in football in decades

Correction we have never faced Lafayette in football which is actually interesting since I think we have played all the remaining North Central single team county schools at least once except for Lafayette 

 

Oh and union county

 

 

But we have played Baker County, Jefferson County, Hamilton County, Suwannee County, Taylor County, Bradford and Palatka

I mistakenly thought that a student of the game like yourself would know one of the most successful north central FL coaches of the past 20 years, regardless of whether you played against him or not.

I've only followed football statewide since I joined this board in 2015 and for as long as I've followed it the only thing I know Lafayette for is that one of our defensive starters in 2015 came from Lafayette

Joey Pearson of Mayo Lafayette spent 20 years as head coach and 8 years as an asst coach for the Hornets.  In those 20 years as hc, Pearson led his alma mater to a 155-68 mark and six district titles. The Hornets made 15 playoff appearances under Pearson’s direction, including a state semifinal appearance in 2007 when he was named the Florida Dairy Farmers Class 1A Coach of the Year.

Pearson was inducted into the Florida Athletic Coaches Association Hall of Fame and retired before the 2019 season.

Mike coe 4 titles,  over 100 wins, only 20 losses, already in the hall of fame. The goat madcoe  got 80 plus players. That's enough to beat Miami central,  i watched the old madison teams. The fact that they can have the same talent is amazing, now they added more coaches and upgrades to the weight room. Oh and they got the future Mr football.  Laugh if you want . Keep sleeping on madison

If your so sure they would beat Miami Central why don't you all go down to Traz and find out

 

I'm sure Miami Central would love to have a 1a team to play so they wouldn't have to basically play an all SFL schedule LMAO

    • First I want to express my apologies for my absence the last few months. Without going into much detail I have had some personal life struggles I have been dealing with on top of figuring out the direction to take FloridaHSFootball.com in. Things have finally settled out some over the last few weeks although I am not completely out of the woods just yet. Some of the decisions about what direction to take FloridaHSFootball.com have been forming over this time while I went through things. Part of me wondered if it was time to go, but really it is not at all. Thankfully, a loyal supporter near me in Gainesville decided to put their mouth where their money is and did a little investing and today FloridaHSFootball.com launched its first-ever Mobile App. With that said it comes with the sunset of the MVP Membership Subscriptions and thus FloridaHSFootball.com will be 100% free for the first time in a while. This comes as needing to get the clearances with Apple and Google and the current subscription platform we have is not syncing with Apple's system nor with the App itself. Its best we go in this direction to grow fans again and being able to put them facing forward with an app on their phone going forward. Here are the download links for the apps: iOS (Apple): https://apps.apple.com/us/app/floridahsfootball-com/id6477621728 Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.floridahsfootball.app&hl=en_US&gl=US   For now the forums will not be available directly in the app. At some point I maybe looking at changing the whole forum software that could eventually integrate into the app. It will be a while before this happens so things will go on as they are here.   I also apologize for any of the spam and troll accounts that have managed to find their way around the security protocols in setting up new accounts. It seems every day these things find ways to pass through control systems. I am going to be looking at getting this solved and will keep an eye on things here as we go along.   Please feel free to reach out to me if you all need anything, want to chat or have any suggestions.   -- Josh  
    • They can definitely beat Central. My bulls is a toss up but I feel we should have the edge. EJ will be hard to stop though. Glad they not in 2A with us. 
    • Blountstown at WS Neal AL Sept 27th. Also the Tate vs. Faith Academy game is no more. Tate will be playing Escambia instead now.
    • I like it if there is only 4 classes 
    • I like the match. An entire COUNTY against a small little Catholic school. Toss up.
