Who are they?

At what school(s) have they coached together?

Have either of them been hc in a state final?

 

Timber Creek football coach Jimmy Buckridge (left) will get help this season from former Hagerty and Boone head coach Phil Ziglar (right), who retired from teaching in December. Buckridge was an assistant under Ziglar at Boone in the 1990s.

The Hagerty coach is Phil Ziglar, who had a legendary career at Boone, and who lead the Braves to at least one state title game in his tenure at the school. The other coach is the Head Coach at Timber Creek, but I am not sure of his name, I believe that his first name is Jim.  I don't what school that they coached at together, but these are two of the better coaches in the Central Florida area, and maybe the entire state.

Jim Buckridge.  He coached at Boone with Ziglar and now Ziglar is at Timber Creek with Buckridge.  Two good people

 

I have heard that Phil Ziglar is a better person than he is a football coach. Since he is a very good high school football coach, one can only imagine how that speaks to the man's character. Timber Creek is always extremely well coached and disciplined, Coach Buckridge always gets the absolute most out of his talent on a yearly basis.

On the left is Jim Buckridge, hc of Timber Creek-19 seasons there.  No current Orange County coach has been at his school longer. 

Phil Ziglar took Boone to the 2007 6A final.  

They have coached together at Boone and Timber Creek.

    • Made a second pass through Maxpreps for all 576 (11-man teams). Yes, it takes a while.  Here's what I've come up with through this morning: 265 Schedules are complete (assumes 10 game regular season beginning either Week 0 for SSAA or Week 1 for everyone else, unless out of state opponent. 311 Schedules have problems. Here's the breakdown: 218 schedules reflect less than 10 games 88 schedules are impacted by conflicts. ie. Team having more than one opponent on the same day- or- scheduled opponent has more than one opponent on that day. 5 teams have 11 games scheduled. Seems like there's a lot of information to be gathered and rectified over the next few weeks.    
    • Went to both the Lakeland contest against Woodham and then the Saturday mid-day title game against Southridge the next week. Lakeland had no answer for the superior Woodham team speed on defense in the semi-final game. The next week title contest saw a opening KR for a TD by Woodham's Kerry Watkins to set the tone for this game. Felt Southridge was the more physical team, particularly with its running game. Each time however it appeared that Southridge was about to get back into a position to maybe take a lead, Woodham would find a way to re-establish its lead on the score board. Going up for that game led me, to learning about a super Soph across town at Ecsambia HS....as Escambia was playing ST Pete high thay night for the 3A state title. Woodham and Escambia would oddly enough both play for state titles the next year as well in Bradenton against Manatee and Southeast.
    • I agree with you on the Norland upset. I think the whole state of Florida knew Norland was going to win and convincingly. People in Miami were like who's Berkeley Prep or atleast I was thinking that. I don't know when Norland will ever get back to states in my opinion. 
    • Biggest upset in Florida finals history. I would put Berkeley Prep over Norland second 
    • Haha. Second-best win in Bartow history. I was present for the top win in their history, on a cold afternoon in Daytona Beach in 1996
