Posters are expected to limit their game references to "relevant" games. Somewhat surprised that a clarification was necessary, but understandably some posters need things spelled out, so thank you for reminding me that there are visitors from local boards who need their hands held. I've seen you talk about Servite games. What up with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets see what happens when a Fla team is given the keys to the car. Lol #wontFinish DLS for sure stands no chance now. Playing the top team in the nation in game 1? If they keep it somewhat close that alone should put them in the top 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh woe is DLS!!!! You all can prop up a potential win over STA as a landmark moment but I know better than to buy into a team who lacks a decent/solid QB The projected starter for STA at QB (Dean) is a overrated Daddy's boy who struggled playing average 2a schools What you think gonna happen when he facing big Dawgs, if STA smart they will run ball every play behind that OL and not let Dean touch the ball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lakeland can get some kids in from Polk, and maybe Osceola. They don't have a national recruiting footprint like STA. Further, times have changed from the 1999-2006 games between the teams when L dominated. Back then, STA was more like a Tampa Jesuit on roids. Now they are essentially IMG.

But they went full retard by including the likes of Narbonne, Saguaro, MLK, and others. DLS should not be on anyone's top 25 list. They have zero starred players and they are going up against the top team in the nation with 30 something starred players. Oh woe is DLS. If STA does not win by at least 28 then it's a down year for fl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was surprised to see USA Today omit the Spartans, as they are usually gifted a ranking in the preseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude where are you getting your information from? Whatever all-star assembly you think STA has or can have, you are sadly mistaken. Just like you said, times are different from back then when in Broward county it was only STA. Now you have teams like AHP, Cardinal Gibbons, U-School, C-Madonna. STA ain't got it like you think my man!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
