Aquinas and Mainland nationally ranked


STARaiders2014

Recommended Posts

MaxPreps in their way too early poll has Aquinas at 16, and Mainland at 19. Aquinas has another great squad coming back in 2015 with a state championship coach in Harriot filling the void left by Rocco.

Mainland was one game away from the 6A title game losing to Miami Central. I'm really interested to see how they do this season. Central will be strong again and has a great shot to 4peat in class 6A.

Will be interesting to see where these two teams end up at the end of 2015.

probley I just hope that it isent armwood vs central for like the 5th straight time, but don't know of many teams in north florida in the 6A that can stand against them serval teams from north florida including yours truly are not 6A anymore leaves a huge void in that region

I agree I know both teams are great, but I'd love to see another matchup in the 6A title game

2012 had Columbia and gainsville as top 2 teams in north florida, too bad we fell against Navarre bc it would have been interesting for that 2012 Columbia team against Miami central, probley be a better overall game then these recent armwood vs central games but instead gainsville went and got beaten up

I don't see anyone in the north florida region of 6A that would beat central: gansiville hasnet been the same team since 2012, armwood may be good but are mainly getting there bc of a average opponents overall, ed white may get some reguar season numbers but they have never made it past the third round, and I don't know if the panhandle are fully equipped to win a state title, so not a lot of contenders in the north, unless saint Augustine can get back to their old self

Do you all think Booker T. Washington can beat Aquinas and Central or one or the other.

Yes Booker T can beat both, but will they is the question. Obviously even though Harriott is a proven winner there are still some questions with him being in Year 1 at Aquinas. However, Aquinas can also beat BTW too. The game being at Aquinas is a big help to the Raiders. 

As for Central I think that will be a very tough game, but BTW can win that one just as much as they can lose it. Aquinas, BTW, and Central are three very evenly matched teams this season.

I'm going with the F-5 Tornadoes by 3. I know they lost some talent but with the pieces they have coming back and the transfers they should be a real contender again. If Booker T. Washington doesn't win the game I still see them making it back to states now Bolles will probably be awaiting them, but then again do we really wanna see a 5 year in a row match-up between the two.

This is just my opinion being that I'm not from the area but I feel that First Coast plays everyone that's of a weak caliber. On year they went 10-0 then lost in the 1st round of the playoffs and the one year they went to states Manatee blew them out 40-0.

well a lot of those teams aren't really good but they dominate them, they look a lot like ed white has the past few years but first coast has more talent across the board then ed white, but considering our struggles to stop ed white past 2 seasons, im a little nervous with first coast, but we have them week 10 and its going to be senior night and in tiger stadium, so mabey that could play a factor for us

    • Just wait till spring is over and the top RB in the area will take his talent to 1 Indian Ave. 
    • This will be an interesting story to follow.  Venice has no proven RB headed in to spring which will be a first for a long time.  They have produced several Dairy Farmers player of the years in that position.  They also will have a massive offensive line with 2 three year starters who return as well as some stud young kids.  They will probably average around 6'4 295 on the line which is huge for Venice standards.  I just wonder if this will change before the start of the season.  I still fell like someone will show up.
    • Are you still talking to me??  Thought I was pretty clear for you not to waste your breath on this subject matter, but somehow you are missing the point.  Teacher unions have limited power in FL because the candidates they overwhelming support keep losing.  If they had won, the teacher union vote had a lot to do with it and would be wielding that power.  Osceola county which isn't a GOP stronghold during the past two national elections had the journalism students for the OHS monthly newsletter (Kowboy Jake) interview the faculty as to their political leanings.  A sample of about 30 teachers that were interviewed were voting as follows:  25 D vs 5 R.  Enough said.  
    • You missed the point of my union post. Teacher unions in strong union states have power. Florida unions have zero. They cant strike and the school board can implement a contract without the unions approval. Florida unions are not preventing any raise in Florida. The state has attacked a straw man here.
