Change of classification

Recommended Posts


Here's my input. 1A and 2nd should combine, 3A and 4A should combine and leave the rest as it is. So in total you'll have 7 clarifications, although some would still complain that 7 is too much.

I believe that would be Six classifications Slick?

 

1.  1A and 2A

 

2.   3A and 4A

 

3. 5A

 

4. 6A

 

5. 7A

 

6. 8A

Do you all think teams will be able to compete and win if 1A/2A were combined and 3A/4A. Could you imagine this epic match up Trinity Christian Academy vs Booker T. Washington.

Future match would be awesome and competitive.  This year BTW would get embarrassed by Trinity Christian.   But based on the 3A/4A combined it would essentially be those two every year.  So not sure if we the combination is a solution......

put IMG and rest of privates into one class and have 5 or 6 classes for just public schools

So do you put IMG, STA, Miami Columbus, Trinity Christian, AHP, Bishop Moore etc..... - all in one class INCLUDING the rest of the privates from 1A and 2A etc....? Isn't 2A like 98% Private right now?   Not sure if that is a solution.  Same 8 teams would be there EVERY year. and the rest of the privates would have 0 Chance. Take a team like North Florida Christian or  Tampa Catholic.  They are decent football programs for their respected 2A and 3 A classification.  They have 0 chance against any of the elite privates. 0, Nada, None!     At least 5-8A Publics can beat those schools sometimes.

Four classes for public schools and two for privates. Larger privates go in one class and smaller privates in another. 

 

(If we were to separate public and private.)

That would work better.  At least for Publics and Larger Privates.   How would all of the logistics work out regarding the transportation and scheduling etc? If  Bishop Moore were a large private....  How many Larger Private teams would be in their Region?  Lots of travelling. 

 

Trinity Christian would likely be in the smaller Privates though and would likely win all their games by 60+ and  then beat Oxbridge or AHD by 20 almost every year.  I hear people bash STA and other privates but never Trinity Christian.  They have 30% of the D1 talent in Jacksonville area all on their tiny 3A team.  It is way more unbalanced than STA with D1 talent in South Florida proportionally ...

BTW has Cocoa's number and MC has Mainland's, but it will not always be that way. A win will come for one of those teams one day.

 

This would be the best way to re-class IMHO. Privates could play Public's but separate them when the playoffs roll around.

STA is a much larger national program than TC is so they'll get some flak. Not like the Dade County public school don't recruit either...so to me it isn't that big of a deal. Less classes yes. I like slick's model of combining 1A/2A and 3A/4A then leaving 5A-8A as are now. 

One solution is to make all privates play up a class so like TCA would play in 4A instead of 3A. Just a thought.

You always have the X 1.5 for enrollment formula you could do for Privates as well.

 

IMG is not eligible for post season play in Florida so no need to discuss them until they become FHSAA eligible. For what it's worth, they might have not been a lock to win States in 5A - 8A this year any way....I guess you could let IMG play regular season private schedule then put them in 8A South Region which outside of Columbus has some pretty strong Public Heavyweights.

 

Miami Columbus would/could stay in 8A South Region which many feel is the hardest path to States in Florida (and pretty much all Public)

The 1.5 rule would be fine by me. A private school class would be STA in the south and TCA in the north. Not even competitive really.

AHP and Columbus would sometimes compete with STA. This year, they would have competed with a banged up STA better than any 7A team.

If Bishop Moore was placed in the North they could balance out Trinity Christian. Once in a while anyway...

    • 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
