Our Seabreeze vs Mainland rivalry brings several thousands of people to the game, to the point most people have to park and ride a shuttle bus to the stadium. It's nothing compared to Neyland ofcourse, but he is use to winning and playing against top talent.
Mainland also has a great coach.
He has placed alot of talent into college, like Buster Davis (All American Linebacker, FSU)
So he is already getting great coaching.
He also played a solid game in the State Semi's last year against Lakeland but lost 35-24.
But Lakeland has 2 straight National Championships. | Is Lakeland the school that put in like 7 kids to UF this year? |

He went to a private high school there.
With that said, I have no clue what is in the water down there in Lakeland, but they have some talent. | |

| Most fans from Florida say he will likely be a high 3* when the rankings come out. | |

| That's what I was thinking. Rivals has him listed as 6'2 and running a 4.5 40. Where did 6'3 4.4 40 come from? | |
