This Dillard High Football team has manage to do something NO! Dillard high football squad has done in over 20 years , which is become nationally ranked.

as many of you all know I have been Dillards biggest & most avid supporter and fan on this board & we’ve had a lot of bad seasons & disappointments ; so to see how far we’ve come it brings tears to my eyes. 
 

it’s still a LOOONG season but to be ranked #95 in the ENTIRE nation says a lot about our program, sure it’s NOT Top 10-50 or 100 but dammit DILLARD FOOTBALL is here & we’re BACK. @ColumbiaHighFan2017class @Jullian @VeniceIndiansFootball @muckboy561 @561_Fan @nolebull813 @DarterBlue2

Which ranking service(s) have Dillard ranked in the top 100? Just curious as there are several out there.

Not sure how I fell about the 95 ranking. A good case can be made for it, but the season is young and it could be a bit premature. I guess it depends on how strong, overall, one views the current year's crop of Florida teams on the National level.

Bear in mind, though, that national rankings at the high school level are highly subjective due to the fact that there are insufficient games between quality teams from different states to make a strong assessment.

Congrats to your Panthers. Pahokee isn’t too 5 in 1A.  Keep building.

Maxpreps, & I believe it’s off of what Dillard has done over time aka the last 3 years add that theyre on a 25 regular season win streak that dates back to 2018 and str8 blew out a 8A power house who many picked not only to beat Dillard but potentially go all the way. 
granted rankings have no baring on how a season can turn out but to be recognized as a national power house knowing what our program has been through is a lot to be proud of.

Oh wow never heard of calpreps, I just went and checked them out. 

Oh yeah, they've been around for a while.  Some things are spot on, some things are way off as with any site.  It is fun to project matchups though.

I honestly can't answer that question.  In all my years, I've never used Maxpreps for anything so I wouldn't be able to give a fair assessment.  However, based on the fact that they can't get schedules correct, I wouldn't put too much stock in that.  However, I'll also say go with the site that has you rated the highest, real talk.  It always looks better at the end of the season.

Congratulations!  This is only the beginning.  I hope the Panthers roll all the way to the title game.

Panthers will get 1 shot during the regular season , to jump up in those polls. Yep u know. STA. A win will put u in the top 40, a close loss will improve your ranking by 10. But first beat Cooper City.....lol

I believe Maxpreps took their rankings off of Calpreps Ratings. CP uses ratings instead of rankings. CP also has a more in-depth rating system than others. CP does tend to rate California teams higher though.

One thing Calpreps use to do was have composite rankings from all the sites on their site.  Maybe I'm overlooking it or maybe they discontinued that option.  I have my crazy days but I know I'm not crazy about this.  :D  If you remember or find it, chime in!

I think they stopped that a few years back. Not sure...

    • Here is a tough one. 1980 Gainesville or Tate. Both 13-1 Here is the tape of the tape. Please let me know what you think.    Tale of the tape.    Tate - class 4A only loss was against 8-2 Choctaw by 4 points  beat 12-1 Miami Columbus in the title game 35-7 but the game was in Pensacola. Meaning Columbus had to drive almost 10 hours  Gainesville - class 3A only loss was against 10-1 Palatka by 8 points  beat Titusville 21-0 in the title game on the road in Titusville
    • For 1997 I picked Carol City over Raines. It was tough but CC finished top 5 in the nation according to USAToday. And they played a tougher schedule. It’s tough when you have the top 2 teams both undefeated. 
    • Yeah in the 70’s-90’s the debate will most likely be between the top 2 largest class state champs 
    • 1976 - Godby HS went 14-0, defeated ledgendary Gene Cox, Leon Lions for the 1st time in school history in its last game of the regular season. Beat a Carol City Team, (that would come back the next year to win the 1977 state title), 21-15 in Lakeland, FL for the 1976 4A title. Two members of that Godby team (Sammy Knight, Chris Hobbs) would then lead FAMU to a upset win over the University of Miami. 1978 - Meritt Island - Beat Carl Madison coached (going to see the name Carl Madison alot through out the 80's),Pine Forrest for the 4A state Title 20-16 and would go on to be repeat state champs winning the 1979 state 4A state title as well, seeing Pine Forrest once again in the Finals 1979 - Merritt Island - Beat Pine Forrest 19-14 1980 - Argument could be made that 3A state Champ Gainesville HS was the states best, as they defeated Titusville on Titusville's home field 21-15, but in the end Carl Madison's (who we'll talk about again in the 80's), Tate HS has to be considered the state best destorying Miami Columbus HS 35-7! 1981 - Again 3A would again have to be where the state's best team played. Palatka after struggling in its 1st round game went on to dominate evenutally winning the state title 42-2 over Suncoast. Unlike Vero Beach (which won the 4A state itle that year), Palatka was loaded with star power, with 2 of its players eventually playing in the NFL (John L Williams, and Jarvis Williams) 1982 - Going 3A once again as Titusville would shutout 3 of its 4 playoff opponents, winning the state title over Osceola 33-0 1983 - 4A Manatee High School goes 14-0 for its 1st state title and the beginning of a dynasty through out the 80's and into the early 90's   more later.......
