A lot of people are being forced to make hard decisions around Covid-19. You have to put your family's safety first, I commend the coach. 

 

 

Definitely and I'll add something to this that I know from being a volunteer at Football for 3 years 

 

This man is a workaholic big time, he goes to church Sunday morning then goes Sunday afternoon up to the fieldhouse and encourages any player who wants to show up to go watch film 

 

I know this wasn't an easy decision but one thing he has preached since day one of being coach is family, both his family at home and his family at that Football field 

 

He went to bat for his Football family and got the county to push back Football while every bordering county was starting August 24th and he made it clear he was gonna make a stand for his players and protect them because he is looking out for them and doesn't want to risk losing anyone else after columbia already had an assistant coach pass away around a month ago from this virus and he doesn't want to risk that happening to any other coaches or any players and right now he is looking after his family and is standing by the very principles he has taught these kids every single day he is out there 

 

It's one thing to preach something in a locker room before a game, it's another to live by it in your daily life 

 

He definitely lives by what he preaches to the players and puts in a lot of time to help these players even after the season with getting to college which he has done at a higher rate than any previous coach at Columbia has done

So, are you number 42 or number 53?  :D

 

All joking aside, I give the coach credit for making a tough decision.   I'm sure he has preached to his team how important family is.  With this decision, he showed his players that he is willing to walk the walk and not just talk the talk.

A little too literal

 

..........

Bingo!

    • 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. 
    • It's possible that they find their stride by week 5, but at the moment we just don't have the on-paper talent to compete with teams like Miami NW, IMG National, Cocoa, or Bishop Verot. If Venice can find a way to go 7-3 with that schedule I would be happy

    • Just wait till spring is over and the top RB in the area will take his talent to 1 Indian Ave.
