Let’s Talk, Should The (TRI COUNTY) Title Be Respected Just As Much As The “FHSAA TITLE”??

I would really like everyone’s opinion on this. As We All Know Covid Struck the entire nation & it effected everything including football. 
 

with that said everybody wasn’t able to opt in compete for a FHSAA title, & some were Givin the option to opt in or opt out “MIAMI DADE”, but for the counties that wasn’t given that option “BROWARD, WEST PALM” we were forced to settle for a Shortened regular season & A (TRI COUNTY) playoffs & Championship. 
 

even in that tho u had a a lot of solid matchups and a lot of hard work & dedication put in. So for the teams that went all the way and won that championship and held that trophy at the end in my opinion that should not only be RESPECTED but also counted as a “REAL CHAMPIONSHIP” & not because Dillard won but that’s how I feel in general, what are y’all thoughts ?? @DarterBlue2 @Proseteye

My thoughts are: 1. A winner of a regional title, should be given respect for winning it. 2. In some classes, the winner of this title likely would have represented the south in the state finals (8A being the best example). In that case, winning the title should at least bestow the same respect that a state finalist should get. In other classes, the winner would, at best, likely have played for the regional title if they had been in the state series. 6A is an example of this. Who would Dillard have played if it were in the state series? Likely Miami Central. What would the outcome of such a match have been? I honestly don't know, but Central would have been the favorite. If Dillard had somehow beaten Central would have its state title chances been? Very decent at the least. They would have likely been at least cofavorite against Palmetto, and if they won that game, they would have likely beaten the north finalist, Lake Minneola.

So, to conclude, the extent of my respect for the regional winners is a function of their classes, with some classes having more significance to me than others.

I respect your analysis my personal opinion Amy team Dillard would have played this year would have got the rage of us loosing our head coach the way we did. 
 

as u said MC would have been favorites as they should be, would the game have went their way ? We would never know. But as I said up top I do believe a “TITLE” is a title if you had to go through a playoff format & play in a championship then I believe a win should b added & counted among the previous trophies you won in the regular FHSAA

No its not the same. Its not going to be added in the record books. Even if GC would of won I'll still say GC has 6 State Championships. Its just a messed up season I'll appreciate the FHSAA trying to make something out of nothing. Just getting ready for the next season when the Virus goes away  and we can compete for a State Championship.

True, so the champion of the tri state that won’t be added to the record books as a title ? 
 

if that’s the case then for the ones that couldn’t opt in they would have been better off just making us suffer without a season At all. 
 

to have a shortened season tri county or not, playoffs and a championship game then say it doesn’t count that’s crazy.

I fell you, Dillard. Columbus was in a position to defend their title this year, but it wasn't meant to be. The Tri-Country title is nice, but it is no state title. I know the boys are proud that they got to do the best with what they had. Coaches are happy too.

Overall, I'm still glad it was played to give the young men a few games and some film for recruiters. Fans like me were happy that we got something. Let's just hope that we are the first and the LAST Tri-county winners ever.

I know that’s right. It just felt so good to see us hold up a trophy for the first time since I’ve been born in football. And to see so much love & happiness & excitement over this championship within the community hearing so many “WE FINALLY DID IT” only for it not to count or really mean anything. 
 

but aye a title is a title, we won it. We just to go to hope next year we can vye for the “REAL THING”

    • 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. 
    • 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
