    • They certainly could produce a state power that hangs with anyone in the state. But, in the current climate, that would require one program to compile most of the top talent. And that area has seen many schools have great teams, but no one school that can lay claim to being head and shoulders over others. And, I think the culture of that area is more traditional or less keen on the new age transfer mania. Perhaps the strongest program in the broader area, Niceville, is too far from Pensacola to attract enough players from there to become good enough to beat a mega power.   The sad thing is, nothing said above means the quality of football is less in that area. They just aren't trying to build all-star teams built on attracting players from far and wide. If the variables were reversed, and Pensacola had a program that went "all-in" on monopolizing local talent, while Dade/Broward schools were somehow forced to strictly use players within a small set of boundaries (like it was in, say, the 1980s), then the Pensacola powerhouse would dominate the Dade and Broward teams. You'd still have a completely uneven playing field, but now that uneven field would work for the Pensacola team and against the Dade and Broward teams. Of course, in current reality, things are reversed from my hypothetical. 
    • My picks for these will be.    Chaminade over west Boca  Norland over vero  carol city over Lincoln  & the west over Lakeland. 
    • This are all good games to see.
    • So, our first week of games is looking like.... Thursday - Chaminade v West Boca Friday - Norland v Vero Saturday - Carol City v Lincoln Saturday - NW v Lakeland What a wonderful world we live in...
    • I favored Jesuit going into that game.  Living in Tampa for many years I saw Jesuit play many times.  Jesuit Athletics Director Terry Rupp is a class act.  Pine Forest probably should have beat Jesuit that night.  I believe Jesuit was overconfident going into the game.  They beat Miami Northwestern in the semifinals so I think they thought the final was a mere formality.  Pine Forest controlled the line of scrimmage practically all night.
