Welcome
This forum was created as a home for the members of the previous PrepGridiron forums which was itself a home for the members of Dallas Jackson's defunct "Varsity Board". Since PrepGridiron has been down since May 1, 2025 and the site's owner has been unresponsive I hope that this will serve as a new permanent, stable home for that community as well as for any new members who have a passion for respectful discussion of High School Football.
Enabling the WYSIWYG Editor
The Invision forum used by PrepGridiron had a WYSWIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor. This forum also has one but it is not enabled by default.
You can turn it on manually by clicking the "Toggle source view" button located here:

Ban on Politics
PrepGridiron previously facilitated an "Off-Topic" board for non-HSFB discussions. There are plenty of places to discuss politics on the internet, this will not be one of them. For me personally, High School Football serves as a means of escape from the seemingly constant political discourse in this country and I hope these forums can offer that to others seeking the same respite. Discussion of other non-HSFB topics should be limited to other sports or something sports-adjacent. Comments with explicit political content or political undertones will be heavily moderated and repeat offenders will be warned and ultimately banned.
