California still has football?

 

Mater Dei was one of three Trinity League teams opening in Florida. St. John Bosco won 31-0 on Friday night in a game halted at halftime because of lightning. There was also lightning for Mater Dei’s game that delayed the start by one hour. 

Orange Lutheran made it a Trinity League sweep in Florida with a 17-13 win over Miami Northwestern. Reagan Loki threw two touchdown passes to Nico Bland.

Elder daughter's high school team played Mater Dei during their Freshman year. Her boyfriend at the time was a center on our high school Frosh team. Not a big kid. I think he was around 5'6" 170# or something like that in his Freshman year. The Nose for Mater Dei's Freshman team was about 6'3" and probably pushing 300#. He would pick our player up by the neck and throw him into the ground and choke him.

Our school, lost something like 42-0.

Don’t the schools in that league have national recruiting budgets

Half of the "high schools" that get airtime on ESPN are not real high schools for one reason or another. They're recruiting operations, like Overtime Elite. I'm not even sure they enroll non-athlete students.

Those football powerhouses like Mater Dei and St. Thomas Aquinas are very much real schools.

Basketball on the other hand...

They are the IMGs of Cali. 

I think IMG has great facilities.  Mater dei is in the hood and aesthetically is worse than temple high school.   We don’t have stadiums like Melissa, Allen and Frisco out here.  But they do recruit for sure.  I think STA does as well to be fair

Kahuku in Hawaii has gotten several high-profile Polynesian players from the US mainland to transfer there in recent years. Not sure how or why those kids even want to move there.

Haven’t been super impressed with the Fla HSFB I saw this weekend. If not for Dia Bell, they mostly looked like ass. Derrick Coopers team got their asses kicked hy whatever Maryland team they played.

St. Frances is the best team in Maryland by miles - they were Biff Poggi's pet project before he went to CFB. They're the school that basically can't schedule a game against a Maryland school because of how aggressively they recruit.

Yep. They’ve got five of Maryland’s top 15 recruits this year including two five stars and are ranked like 5 nationally.  They have multiple other FBS commitments on the roster, too. 
 

 Basically an IMG type operation except there is a real Catholic school attached to it.

It’s a tiny town on the clear opposite end of the island from Honolulu. I have no idea why you would choose to play there over St Louis or Punahau.

It’s a wonder how Saban could get any recruits to Tuscaloosa.   
 

I’d actually rather live in a tiny town in Hawaii than Honolulu.    Regardless, if you live anywhere in Hawaii you get great weather and you’re 30 minutes from the beach.   Yes, it’s not as cosmopolitan as Pharr San Juan Alamo, but beggars can’t be choosers.

The Golden Demons scored the first 30 points of the game and held on to beat the Rifle Bears 30-20 Friday night.  Bring on Cherry Creek!

I always enjoy seeing trash programs get embarrassed.  Grant Union (Sacramento, CA) players and coaches tried to start shit during warmups with Folsom, which is QB'ed by a kid who's a 5* and headed to BYU.  Folsom also has a WR who will play at Ole Miss.  Why nobody was tossed for the pregame shenanigans is a bit of a mystery to me.  #9 for Grant Union is a clown in particular.  And, of course, Grant also pulled some dirty shit during the game. 

It didn't end well for Grant Union -- 51-13.

There's a pretty good Youtube video about the game as well.

If you would have actually visited here you’d know that living on that side of the island is the desired place to live at. Since you obviously have not though you are talking out of your backside.
