lol, and following it up a week later with a long road trip to play Giannis and the Bucks in Milwaukee 

Looks like they're playing the Pittsburgh Pirates on October 2.

They used a single wing like Apopka ( having learned it from Apopka.) Difficult to stop if you haven’t seen it (AHP in 2021) as nobody uses it. But once teams have some repeated looks at it, it becomes something easy to stop- if you have the personnel to do it. Treasure Coast would out muscle most teams who knew how to stop it, but did not have the personnel to do it (Vero in 2021, 2023.) Apopka took them apart in the state semis in 2021, having the knowledge to stop the single wing, and the athletes to do it.  In recent years TC (like Apopka before them) has opened up the offense to include the spread, as they don’t have a athletic advantage anymore due to the opening of Legacy high, and exodus of kids to the other St Lucie County programs. 

I  have to think that it's a mix of Watkins (and maybe Davis at Westwood, who exceeded my expectations this year) starting to keep kids in The Fort, and Legacy opening up that led to the bottom falling out for TC this year. As you pointed out, Irv's offense isn't particularly enticing to skill players. I also think it's worth noting that last year, TC, PSL, SLW, Tradition and Legacy combined to go 12-38 with SLW accounting for 5 of those 12, and Legacy winning 4 games against teams that barely had a pulse.
