Toughest Schedule in the State?

1. I think Manatee will get enough transfers to make a post season run.
2. As far as the schedule, I think they lose the Bucholz, St. Johns, Lowdnes, but play good enough to learn from the loss but the other games should be a cake walk. I would love for them to play CM or Venice too.
3. Playing Booker is a good local game, and I think they will win a close game. Booker will be loaded up pretty good this year, but I think Manatee has the better overall coaching staff.
4. Coach Green is definitely headed in the right direction.

Florida High School Players in the Super Bowl

I met the Super Bowl XXXVII MVP at the New Tampa Y a couple of years ago. Nice guy, looked like he could still play. Dexter Jackson had 2 interceptions in the Tampa Bay Bucs blowout of the Oakland Raiders.

Jackson was born in Quincy, Florida. He played quarterback, wide receiver and defensive back at James A. Shanks High School in Quincy, Florida. Shanks High was combined with a magnet school to form what is today East Gadsden High School. He went on to play safety at Florida State. He was drafted in the 4th Round of the 1999 NFL Draft by the Tampa Bay.
My 1970 team with Burton Lawless on it lost to Quincy Shanks on a late penalty up there in the State Semi-Final game. It was the right call, can't argue it.

Toughest Schedule in the State?

Coach Green has set up the 2025 schedule that is rather ambitious. Manatee had a good number of players graduating from last year so unless he gets some good transfers to come in with what he has returning this could be a rough experience. What do you think? Does this schedule attract players to Manatee? My guess is he hopes so.

What if it has the opposite effect and players transfer out? :D I don't see that happening but anything is possible.
