Larry Blustein: Class of 2014 already making an impression
With less than a month to go before the Class of 2013 makes that final decision on National Signing Day, some of the attention has been shifted to the next class — the rising seniors who make up a very talented group of 2014 prospects that could be as good as we have had in South Florida.

In my opinion
Dellenbach lays down solid foundation for success
They came to see American Heritage’s Sony Michel run the ball. They had heard about the nation’s best Class of 2014 running back. But what the football fans in Sebring would see over the next three hours was the rebirth of a program that is building — at a high level — for the long haul.

When Nathaniel Hudson took over the head coaching job at South Dade last spring, he gave no timetable for when the Bucs would compete for a playoff spot. He only guaranteed that his alma mater would play hard and give everything it had.

In my opinion
Colonels are going on the offensive
During the past five years, if you mentioned Plantation High’s football program, defense would automatically come to mind. After all, the Colonels have produced a number of quality prospects who have gone on to enjoy collegiate and NFL success on that side of the ball.
