I don't know about all that.
Louisiana and Mississippi have some of the best football.
facilities in the nation much better than Flordia. Plenty of money when it comes to high school sports In Louisiana and Mississippi

We just do NOT play transfer ball or roster raid every offseason down here.

I'm only speaking about the conditions needed to field a national powerhouse. No one high school, as far as we can tell, has large enough financial support to distinguish itself from many other schools. This affects recruiting transfers as well. And you can't create a national power without being able to get transfers.

Louisiana has all of 11 schools with over 2000 students; Mississippi has none. That to me is a far bigger factor than money or even transfers has in building nationally-elite squads.

The size of the school has little to do with building a power. The one point worth making is that a large school has that many more sets of parents who will be supporting (i.e. buying tickets, merch etc) the program, and the probability of getting larger private donations goes up.

But, as pointed out earlier with Plano, if there are many huge schools within a given region, then they end up back having a hard time distinguishing themselves from others.

The recipe nowadays for building a national power is to have a program that has name recognition/history and/or resources that distinguish that school from others in the area such that they get dibs on most all the top players in an area. You have to stack your roster with area all-stars to be a top 30 national team.

When American Heritage-Delray went to Louisiana they had 500 kids in the school, 40 players on the team, and they put a running clock on West Monroe who had over 2,000 enrollment and 100 plus kids on the team.

The issue for West Monroe was they were from a bad football state. Enrollment didn't play a factor

There's a reason people don't respond to you, Gaybob813!

It really does have to suck to be you.

As everyone knows by now 2A Calvary Baptist, La put 40 on West Monroe that year.......231 students at Calvary Baptist. The head coach at West Monroe had major health issues like a couple of heart attacks.

I really don't know how many times this gay saggy trumpet is going to keep repeating the same shit over and over and over and over.

Anyways, the internet is filled with gay crackheads, Believe that!

Just stop already with that nonsense!

If that's your way of saying Florida high schools are buying players I could probably believe that though.

Broke ass Carol City is racking up on transfers this year.

What's wrong with you people?

Come to find out Louisiana high schools are too broke to buy transfers. WTF?

I guess if you hang around the internet long enough you'll see anything

That's definitely a new one.

Sick to death of your excuses! Jesus you are a built in excuse machine!!!!

And Calvary barely won. Delray beat the living tar out of them. Big difference. It is pathetic that you think Calvary barely winning makes it any less embarrassing for baby Delray to put a running clock on them

Nothing but lies from that gay saggy trumper!
Makes perfect sense in the bigger picture!

Kind of refreshing that John Curtis is taking on one of the Top programs in the nation and John Curtis doesn't have 1 fucking transfer!....... same with Catholic (Baton Rouge)

I think Alexandria may have picked up 1 transfer for their big game against Bryant,  AR....... If he's approved.

Fuck transfer ball!

Do you sincerely believe that - with all other things being equal - that most prospective head coaches are going to opt to coach at a school of 1000 students instead of one with 3000? If the goal is to build a program that can maximize it's success the answer is obvious.

Talking about the "recipe" to building a national power and citing name recognition is frankly not helpful nor accurate; ten years ago Bingham and Mountain Pointe were names every national high school football fan knew, and now they are complete afterthoughts (hell, we had a Newhall Hart mention not that long ago). Conversely, I remember Peoria Centennial getting dragged on the previous board after they lost to Peoria Liberty in 2017; I specifically remember a number of "not even Vegas Liberty" remarks. Two years later the Arizona Liberty took out Vegas Liberty and within five years they'd thrash Valor Christian, have a close call with Corona Centennial, and weren't having their national credentials questioned by anyone but the most narrow-minded of fans (Basha and Corner Canyon have had similar paths). The easiest pathway to "name recognition" is to win a ton of games, and that journey is helped out when you have a lot of great athletes. Even when recruiting and open enrollment is the norm if you are able to leverage those tools AND have an enrollment edge you're going to have a leg-up on the competition.

The way you build a national powerhouse, is everytime you play a football game, you have at least one more point than your opponent

Baton Rouge Catholic doesn't need transfers.  They get the majority of the best players in Baton Rouge now.

Another bizarre comment.

So you're now saying some teams need transfers now, cool story man!
Never heard that one either.

At least you people are coming up with new stuff to amuse Redzone!. 🤠🏈🤠

The year American Heritage Delray beat West Monroe 31-7 they also beat National Power Chaminade Madonna 31-14......wait, Chaminade Madonna was just a little Florida piss ant then, they went 8-3.

A few years later Chaminade Madonna realized they had to "brand"...... so they went out and printed up 25,000 t-shirts and started spending millions of dollars on football players/transfers.

They won a State Championship in 2021. Now they are considered a National Power on the scene....wait, that's NOT even right.
St Frances put a running clock on Chaminade Madonna last year (35-0) and reminded Chaminade-Madonna they are still that same little piss ant Florida school from a few years ago, but now they have a national brand. 🤠🏈🤠

I think this is what the other Florida delinquent was talking about. I can't be sure because I still don't understand what the f*** he was talking about.

Redzone keeping it real

Chaminade beat St Frances Academy by 3 touchdowns on ESPN a few years ago.

That win is better than any win the state of Lousiana has had in the last 20 years. I beg you to find a better win. I guarantee you won't.

It's definitely better than the top 2 games you listed, 3 loss Mississippi and 3 loss TAPPS!!!!

LMAO!!!!

Too funny. Little baby 2nd round loser American Heritage Delray put a running clock on large class stage semi finalist West Monroe AT West Monroe where they were kneeling the ball in the red zone because they didn't want to embarrass them more. Red Flag cried with pussy excuses about the coach being sick. Well didn't hurt them.

West Monroe finished like 6th in the state!!!!!!
