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

    • I was actually itching to treat some wager some money on some sports matches that are happening above-board now. I wanted to let you guys identify that I did spot what I ruminate on to be the kindest site in the USA. If you fall short of to get in on the spirit, check it out-moded: [url=https://pokeronline.guru/online-gambling/]https://pokeronline.guru/online-gambling/[/url]
    • Perhaps the best RB in Tampa Bay iin 2023 saw his program close, and is looking for a home. If he stays in the area,Venice is a good bet. (Lakeland may be as well).
    • And if that same newsletter asked the Osceola County Sheriff Department, what do you think the response would be? If you asked, members of the Chamber of Commerce? (Essentially a union of businesses) If you asked a group of nurses? If you asked a group of lawyers? Also a union cares about the working conditions of their members, but the working conditions of teachers are the learning conditions of students as well. People are attracted to careers because of the values that come with those careers. Political Parties attract people based on their values. So it shouldn't be surprising that certain professions attract certain people in certain careers. You act as if the principal's first question when we have a 5,000+ teachers shortage in this state is "who do you vote for? And are you a member of the union?"
    • I feel like y'all are always solid so I don't see y'all going no worse than 7-3. Biggest question mark for Cocoa is their O-line since they are only returning 1 and on the defensive side they only return their blue chip edge in their front 7 
    • Coach Wiseman, let me just preface this by saying that you were the best HC Sarasota's program has had in the last 20+ years. You brought them from being a perpetual losing program to the doorstep of competing with Venice for a district title and a deep playoff run. SHS will curse the day they fired you now that they are back in a rut. You are a true class act, and nothing will ever convince me otherwise.  Our backfield is certainly sparse right now. We do have Dorian Jones, a rising sophomore runningback whom did considerably well considering his limited playing time last season. Our offense will need an overhaul with the graduation of 3 offensive linemen and almost our entire receiving corps. Our defensive line will be strong with the return of Ke'shawn Vaughn, Elijah Jones, and Asharri Charles. Our linebacking corps graduates virtually everybody but should have at least one bright spot with the return of Ben Zarkawiecz. Our defensive backfield is still a work in progress with the graduation of Lester and Platt. At the moment, we have more question marks than exclamation points. And that's not a good feeling with the kind of competition Venice is going to face.
