Q: I would like to know if you think Coral Reef HS football team is for real, and what you think about Darius Hall, Jordon Thomas, and David Decepedes.
Answered 09/15/10 13:46:08 by High School Sports Beat Writer
A: Hall is the only one that stood out to me in the Ferguson game...That doesn't mean the other two aren't good players. Overall, I think Coral Reef should finish in the upper half of the district, but making the playoffs is still tough to see with South Dade, Southridge and Homestead in their way.Submitted by jj from miami,fl

Answered 04/14/10 20:44:08 by High School Sports Beat Writer

Q: did u hear about the recent transfer of american qb abe coleman do you think he will start at jackson and what do you think of americans playoff chances next year.
Answered 04/14/10 20:43:01 by High School Sports Beat Writer
A: I did not. I think he has a solid shot to start, unless they have a proven talent coming in, which at last check they didn't. American will have it tough in a district that will likely still have a very tough Krop squad and Carol City.Submitted by spencer from miami fl

Q: What can you tell me about a kid from Palmetto, Adam Sargent? He had 12k's last week against SW and is committed (at least on their website) to Florida Gulf Coast. From what I can tell he didn't pitch an inning last year for Palmetto, where did he come from?
Answered 03/17/10 13:27:45 by High School Sports Beat Writer
A: He was there last year. I think he was just working his way up and this year, he finally got a shot. He's making the most of it so far, pitching well against the tougher teams in the district.Submitted by Jimmie Floyd from Miami Florida
Q: Why does the University of Miami pass up so much good basketball talent from South Florida. There have been a large number of good players over 6'8'' to go to other division II teams.Miami has never had the height to compete with the ACC teams.
Answered 03/17/10 13:23:36 by High School Sports Beat Writer
A: That looked clear against Duke the other day. Not sure Miami would want some of those guys, however, if they're going to D-II's.Submitted by Jimmie Floyd from Miami Florida
Q: Why wasn't Miami Central QB Jeffrey Godfrey recruited by the Miami Hurricains.He is the best high school QB available, far better than Monsignor Pace QB
Answered 03/17/10 13:22:08 by High School Sports Beat Writer
A: I guess he's just not the type of QB they were looking for. I covered Godfrey for 4 years and agree, after Jacory Harris, he's the best there was available out of South Florida. UCF's gain.Submitted by BILL HENRY from FORT LAUDERDALE FL

Q: We need some more baseball coverage! What have you heard of Belen Jesuit 1st baseman and catcher, Michael Iglesia. I've heard he's got the interest of some Division 1 schools and has been in talks with the University of Virginia. I like when Miami keeps our home grown kids here. Give Jim Morris a hollar on this kid.
Answered 03/17/10 13:18:49 by High School Sports Beat Writer
A: I'm sure Jim has taken notice if he's that good. He's got a good pulse on where to find the local talent. And I'm sure you've seen we've done a little more baseball in recent weeks. We'll continue to do more as season progresses.Submitted by chris from kendall

Answered 03/17/10 13:16:08 by High School Sports Beat Writer
A: There hasn't really been that much turnover for this coming season. But as for last year, and counting coaches that have coached before but were at a school for the first year, I'd have to rank 1. Greg Dentino (South Dade), 2. Patrick Burrows (Southridge), 3. Nigel Dunn (Jackson), 4. Matt Dixon (Varela), 5. Daryle Heidelburg (Norland).Submitted by DESMOND from Your Location (City, State)
