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.

Who is he?

Where did he coach?

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

    • And that’s where I’m at with it. I’m sure teddy heart is in the right place. But if we’re gonna keep it real, between last year and this upcoming year MNW has received well over 50 transfers a lot of them that are from different counties and stay nowhere near MNW.    some of them maybe because of changing environments for a better life etc etc, but it’s also 2025 and lot of the transfers was to follow the hype train.    while the uber rides can be a touchy subject depending on the kids situation, he also mentioned he needed thousands in donation for recovery, I get it he went pro and a lot of these assets he had in the league, but a lot of what he’s asking for isn’t even a high school requirement.    when I played ball out recovery was a ice bath lol. He then went on to say 4,000 a week for food ? , what are they eating lobster.    then he said for the three day gym stay he had to front 14,000 dollars for the kids. 14,000 to sleep in the gym for 3 days for what I’m assuming is for team building, is still insane. 
    • 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.”
