It’s not ignorance, because I have seen those articles many times before, I’ve only been on these forums for a cool minute, but I’ve been in high school football wayyyy longer than that 😂 The irony of your statement though 👀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of all the states in the United States, Florida has the highest percentage of senior citizens, followed closely by Maine, West Virginia, Vermont, Pennsylvania, Montana, Delaware, Hawaii, Oregon and Arizona. However, as far as the absolute statistics are concerned, California still holds the record as having the largest actual number of elderly persons. A higher density of old folks. And as proven with an endless supply of evidence, talent density in Florida and Georgia is deeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used old folks as a reason to why we have an inflated pop, but it’s still irrelavent Because It’s about the actual number on guys out there in the field.

Problem is, and the evidence points clearly, to a consolidation at the top of a small number of elite programs, who are among the nations best. But what happened to public school play? CC has supplanted Poly, MV, as the public school of reknown. Some of us who lived in the state off and on over a long period of time wonder what happenned to the Carsons, Bannings, Ike, and other once monster programs? Where are the players going, and why?

Their plenty of good pubs in California it’s just that the privates get all the buzz that the pubs are in their shadow. players are going to privates now. There are benifits to going to a private school, such as better facilities, better school life in general, and the coaching is superior. I might also have to do with youth football, kids want to go play with their former teammates, so they link up at their local private.

Anyway, to answer your question football revenue (and to a certain extent some basketball revenue if the team is winning consistently) support the other sports. Grayson for example fields 17 teams in various sports, at least I think it is 17. Im wondering if someone will "enlighten" the great unwashed, how non revenue generating sports are funded?

Places Cali and Jersey are run by privates. Big difference in platforms. If they wanted to every other state could do the same as us, but does it really matter? That’s just how it went down here.

One for the office and one for the students, all of us. Hell, we did not have copiers. We had what was called a mimeograph machine. Got high on the smell of the fluid. That must have been rough.

I know the Georgia or Florida's public schools ( Dade County was removed from DoJ supervision in 94') who draw from boundries set forth by the Dept of Justice can go there yet. And the private schools who would like to, are moving in that direction. STA did. Now AHP, Chaminade, and in Georgia, the damn is about to bust and it will be a free for all with regards to player acquisition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The participation dropped by 3,000 over the last 2 year.
