If this is true, it's sad.   This is not what high school football should be about.  

Vero will be down a little from last season, they lost a lot from that team, but it should still be a good game. 

"Listen here, y'all... back in '72 runnin' Overtown streets, we ain't had no transfer portal. You repped your hood school or sat the bench. Coach look at you cross-eyed for even dreamin' 'bout switchin' for better lights. Noimsayin?   Now fast forward, and Coach Toro Wallace—dude was slicin' defenses at Chaminade-Madonna like butter last year—takes the helm at Miami Carol City. Respect the move. But word? Damn near 40 kids floodin' in already? Forty? That's a charter bus unloadin' helmets and egos every mornin'! Got elite 5-star ATH Nick Lennear (boy catch anything not nailed down) as the centerpiece, young QB Malik Leonard jumpin' from Chaminade right behind his old OC, more 4-stars pilin' up. Man, it's greed and gluttony straight outta that sin-eatin' movie scene.   And don't sleep on the Bradenton/Venice side: Venice HS just snagged 2028 QB Noah Patton—6'3" backup from IMG's national squad—headin' there for junior year. Boy got the arm and frame, leavin' the Ascenders for them Indians. Then Manatee Hurricanes pull in 2029 QB Nolan Downes from IMG's junior team—freshman already got offers from Howard, Toledo, UNLV, Sac State. These locals stealin' back from the big prep farm right up the road. Like dat time I tried to 'steal' a win at jai alai... ended up lighter, but the hope was real.   Reminds me of dat one dancer I chased back in '05—looked real good dancin', spent my whole weekend change on her... next mornin' she ghosted, sayin' the IRS took most her weekly check for back taxes, so she needed 'extra' just to make rent. Whew. All flash, no guarantee. Same vibe here: stack talent, chase the shine, but when Open Division hits in '26 and yank 'em into that top-8 meat grinder? Packin' gear after openin'-round whoopin'. I'd bet my last Publix paycheck on it... wait, nah, three Karens today returned the same wilted lettuce claimin' it 'tastes funny' (lady, it's wilted 'cause you squeezed it like stress ball). Bookie got the rest anyway.   Love me some Florida high school ball more than a cold one after shift. But this transfer madness? Hilarious in that 'I told you so' Ron White way. Y'all think Venice/Manatee reloadin' smart off IMG scraps, Carol City buyin' a title ticket that busts, or what? Popcorn hot. Spot me $20 on any of 'em makin' noise... or not. Hit me back."

Yessir I would love for us to play a OOS opponent in the Broward vs USA,  dillard got in alot of talent and will be Huge in da trenches this upcoming season. And most of all our SOS. those 3 games alone can possibly have us the #1 in 3A especially since we were 10-0 last year and finished the 3 seed 

Are you serious? Jeez. That’s crazy. MNW of them seems like they are imploding.    Carol City is a 5 time state champion winning titles in 4 different decades  And if Dillard is in the Broward challenge they should get a decent opponent too.    Definitely a huge upgrade. Might entice some local talent. Lol
