Dade talent vs brevard talent Sureeee.... It doesn't matter how many transfers cocoa got, the dade talent on BTW was still solid and cocoa earned that state championship game over them Since we all knew whoever won south would beat Bolles by double digits, well i did but some people thought Bolles would actually win lol my thing is why are we beating up cocoa for transfers....theres transfers all over the country. and now with the open transfers in FL if 60 kids want to go to cocoa its perfectly allowed and so be it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's because it fights the norm They wanted BTW to win 5 straight and show how bland Florida is so they would be correct But cocoa won and proved there is talent in more than 2 counties plus img Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Columbiafan Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 Heck i made a top 100 list without img and it wasn't that hard to find teams, i had like 30 just on outside who could very easily have cracked the list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won 2A and 3A titles years ago, and finally after 5 straight losses to Booker T, they stockpiled transfers and scraped by them to win the 5th biggest class. Finally Nolebull, I know why you're such a negative F*** about Cocoa. When that little school gets pounded out of state by a national power, in your eyes, it brings your Florida superiority argument down to the Homers in the other big time football states. And that's pretty selfish and pathetic. Most of that Cocoa roster comes from nothing. They got nothing and chances are many will obtain very little in life. A plane ride and trip out of state will be a lifetime highlight for most. Sure with good stable coaching, Wilkerson gets his share of area athletes. This isn't much different then Mainland High in neighboring Volusia County. Similar schools, with very similar underprivileged athletes. Stop the hating, it's only a high school activity. And by the way, losing to Booker T Washington, one of the top teams in America, isn't disgraceful. Grow up, be an adult. This is kids play... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cocoa shouldn't be awarded recognition because they "lose in style" And the one thing you failed to mention Dan is they stockpile transfers faster than anyone outside STA and IMG. They are up to 14 just this year alone and had double digits last year. They are a Brevard County all star team. Hard to pat a coach on the back for (finally) winning the 5th biggest classification with half a roster of transfers. I guess everyone sees things differently Ehh those teams in Dade can load up on transfers with the best of em. Don't think BTW coaches and players are complaining. Evenwith all those transfers BTW had the talent edge. Good for Cocoa for finally beating them. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're a 4A school that has played in 13 OOS games since 2010 (all against bigger schools) and has acquitted themselves fairly well. And they actually play good defense unlike Valdosta.

Finally OH, I was thinking finally as in they won. It did not add up that 4 titles in 10 or 11 years was no where near a finally. Personally I am glad to see the transfers. It s the only way to keep up with BTW. They fall right into that school because of how dense the pop is there. I mean 3 school play on that same field. Up until recently it was Cocoa V the 2nd team DADE county all star team (Miami Central being the 1st team). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they got about 20 transfers in this year, so it's not like their pulling from their school zone right now exclusively for players. But they are always tough and always have the heart of a champion. One of my favorite Cocoa game is when they went up and beat BC in NJ. Someone is overexageratting a lil on the amount of transfers Cocoa got last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also one of those 12 transferred last season and played on the basketball team and ran track. Also a couple of those 12 transfers originally started their high school football career at cocoa and transferred out. Now they transferred back to Cocoa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet they get just as much heat (wrongly) for transfers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I'm wondering is how many d1 athletes are on each team after those transfers for cocoa For all we know BTW might still have more D1 athletes even with cocoa transfers Better yet would anyone even care about cocoa transfers if BTW had beaten them in playoffs?
