The guy is loopy. Not 14 days. But, unfortunately, it can be done within about 75 days. Lakeland was maybe the 3rd best team in 7A as of May, narrowly beating Venice. Then, on June 1, the transfers rolled in and they are the clear favorites. They no longer have room to talk as disadvantaged in comparison to private schools. Perhaps IMG, St. Frances and the boarding schools housing kids from all over belong in a different category. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but it's not May. It's August. We're rolling with what we've got whether it's good enough or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that you'll be disgusted with this and disavow the sport for almost a decade. No? I didn't think so. I see it as totally unsustainable, both for Lakeland AND the sport. It's a little like the one and done with college hoops. Not a great approach and tends to make a mockery of the idea of "programs". Following it is, as it has been for about a decade, little more than a hobby for me. I did hope to see Lakeland load up and get redemption on STA for 2008. Mission accomplished.

There are some alpha dogs in Lakeland's senior class and they've moved to build up the team as much as they can. And, 2) something is apparently going on at Kathleen. Word is they've lost around 15 players to other schools.Just happens that the best 5-6 ended up at Lakeland. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's something refreshing about a cognizant hypocrite. Cheers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
