I guessing they are in for some debate over some of the schools they see as top 25.

  I think they are maybe a 50-80 type team until they prove themselves, but they are a top 100 team this year. They have some skill players in the right spots. Judson is committed to Ohio State for a reason. Ohio State had their pick of QB's from any team in the nation, why Judson?

  USA Today quote "Junior QB Bruce Judson, an Ohio State commit (1,840 yards, 28 TDs passing, 755 yards and nine TDs rushing) leads an offense that averaged 39.9 points and 400 yards a game last season. Look for sophomore DE-RB Howard Stewart, who has an offer from Miami, to make a big impact on both sides of the ball. OT Jawaan Taylor leads the offensive line. The only question marks are the team’s young defense, led by CB-RB Chauncey Gardner, a Florida commit."

  Gardner is a play maker. The defense, some coming up from a JV team that shut out the season without giving up any points are that good. I know the schedule Cocoa has this season is really going to test Cocoa. IMG is doubtful Cocoa wins, St Edward will be a good game for Cocoa and also a good game for Mainland. Cocoa is going to open a few eyes this season. All I'm going to say is that there are some special players in the program this year and when the season starts they will show themselves.

  Now, I know BTW is going to be chomping on this all season. Glades Central is going to be chomping on this also, and Clewiston feels like they have a score to settle. It should be a strong playoff this season in 4A south. The team that goes to Orlando will be real.

 

How do you see it?

The 4 teams that's gonna be coming from the south should of been the 4 teams playing the semi final games... Like glades vs cocoa in one bracket and BTW vs clewistin on the other to go to the finals

No Zoe Boy I think you got it wrong if GC wins district we play probably miami prep then BTW play Clewiston in the first round GC play the winner of the two. Cocoa has the easy route to semifinals with teams like Avon Park, Lake Placid, Mulberry, and Labelle in the playoffs

I agree, but it ain't ever gonna change until Raines takes Bolles out of the playoffs cause FHSAA wants Bolles in the finals.

    • 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.
