bolles would sometimes be competitive to trinity, but i get what u saying, mabey a big private and a small private, like all privates 1-4 a in one class and privates in 5-8 in large or something like that

Bolles would, you're right on that one. With Corky I'll never count them out. However, I think the way it is now is fine, or the combining classes like I said earlier is great too.

They wouldn't get past STA in the south nor would they get past AHP or Columbus. At least this past year I don't think they would. 

 

That's why you would separate the private schools. Small ones in one class and big ones in another. 

 

Small class would be Trinity/Bolles out of the north most years and Oxbridge/Hertiage Delray/Chaminade out of the south.

I just got what you meant by small private. Thought he was wondering how they'd do. I agree though it'd be between those 3 in the south most years.

What about American Heritage Delray

AHD could battle it out with Oxbridge most years.  Archbishop McCarthy, Chaminade Madonna, Gulliver Prep, Westminster Christian, or Clearwater Central might get a sniff here or there, and would balance out a competitive Private Small South.    AHD and Oxbridge should be close going forward  and the Small Private South could work well. Can't say the same about up the small private North..... 

Up North you pretty much only have Trinity and Bolles.....I think Bolles would generally be a good game with AHD or Oxbridge generally speaking, but right now Trinity Christian is on another level than any of those schools.  Trinity Christian is an elite team in Florida.  I think Bolles might get Trinity in a 1 of 4 years type deal.

Here's how I'd do it:

 

1a - Public schools -    0-500

2a - Private Schools -  0-500

3a - Private Schools -  501-1000

4a - Public Schools -   501 - 1000

5a - Public Schools -   1001 - 1500

6a - Public Schools -   1501 - 2000

7a - Public Schools -   2001 - 2500

8a - Public/Private  -   2500 and over Public Schools and Privates over 1000

 

This would take the few private schools currently in 5a-8a and put them in the largest classification.  In my opinion, they would have no problem competing there.  Secondly, it takes the few private schools in 4a down to what is currently 3a.  Class 2a is mostly private anyhow.  

 

Independents and Conferences:  By voluntary election; let them form a bowl game or playoff system and govern themselves.   Regular season non-district games between public and private schools or between independent and playoff eligible teams is fine.  

 

IMG - remain independent, but I'm not so sure they would have advanced past the 3rd round in class 5a-8a this year anyhow.

I am not sure you would have enough teams in 1A or 4A with those numbers Hwy 17 but i do like the format maybe bump up 4A to 1200 or 1300 you need at least 36 teams

    • I seriously can't remember how many times I had to do that very thing. Like Nolebull said in another discussion, the kids know kids from other schools and where the "hot hand" is. I never entertained discussions with kids or parents of kids from other schools. I know we lost some good ones because of it but I am ok with that.
    • In a single word, "no." In a lot more words, see the following: (From 2023-24 FHSAA Handbook) 36.2 GENERAL DEFINITIONS 36.2.1 Athletic Recruiting. “Athletic recruiting” is any effort by a school employee, athletic department staff member or representative of a school’s athletic interests to pressure, urge or entice a student to attend that school for the purpose of participating in interscholastic athletics.   and this . . . 36.2.2 Improper Contact. “Improper contact” is contact, either directly or indirectly, whether in person or through written or electronic communication, by a school employee, athletic department staff member, representative of the school’s athletic interests or third parties, such as an independent person, business or organization, with a student or any member of the student’s family, in an effort to pressure, urge or entice the student to attend a different school for the purpose of participating in interscholastic athletics.  See Policy 37.    In fact, if the kid contacts the coach at another school, the coach is not supposed to communicate with the kid other than to refer the kid to the person at the school responsible for admissions.    Best I can tell, there is no exception for being able to reach out to a kid who plays a sport that is not offered by the school that the kid currently attends.  Perhaps there should be . . . but then you'd really be opening Pandora's Box.   
    • So you are not allowed to talk to a kid who is not an active football player currently attending a school that doesn’t have a football team?
    • 1.  Ask around and get the kid's phone number. 2.  Call the kid.  3.  If that doesn't work, DM the kid.  4.  Once communications are established, try to convince the kid to come to your school.  There may be other ways, but I think this would be the easiest way to recruit a kid .
