Softballguy Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Florida does pretty good considering they have a state association, a state government and local leadership almost statewide that do absolutely nothing to support public schools or athletic programs in general If they were given the resources of Georgia or Texas it wouldn't even be close Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texasball Posted September 16 Share Posted September 16 Texas just keeps producing. The vast majority of the Texas players are coming from Public schools with the big majority coming from 6A & 5A ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They get a small little stipend that gets eaten up before spring. It’s actually the main reason most kids transfer to private schools because at least they have some money invested in weight room and facilities.

The inner city of Texas is no different than other inner cities around the country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The state as a whole still gives far better resources than they have ANYWHERE in Florida And I doubt the leadership in Texas are as incompetent as Florida either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just telling you there is large population of kids from Texas mainly from the inner cities schools who facilities are know better. The facilities on campus at NS are not any better than MNW - JS as this is what I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Miami Northwestern doesn't even have a stadium on campus North shore may not have Allen facilities but I think you are overestimating how good FL facilities are, just looking at North shore stadium I can tell you it's probably a top 5 stadium in Florida Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your home digs belong to the school board in which your school is a member.............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am talking campus football related facilities. Including WT rooms! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even so that stadium is still better than almost every stadium in Florida I don't doubt you saying that not every Texas facility is Allen TX but I think your overvaluing how good facilities in Florida are I've been to many stadiums and facilities in Florida for multiple sports. Some schools have next to no facilities and the ones they have are held together with duck tape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
