A-BLOCK – Q&A with Shaun King
1-What does the “state” of Florida (HSFB and CFB) look like nowadays compared to when you were coming out of high school?
2-National Signing Day drama with focus on Byron Cowart’s “fax” problems and the circus that surrounds the 5*-prospects these days.
3-NCAA proposed changes that include early signing period and the “possible’ trend of top-tier prospects not even needing to sign an LOI.
B-BLOCK – Shaun King (continued)
4-Why can’t teams from Pinellas win rings (or at least play for them consistently?)
5-The insane amount of emphasis on 7-v-7 during the offseason. Who is the biggest beneficiary? The skill players? The QB’s? The “scouts”?…or all of the above?
6-Thoughts and feelings about IMG’s model/approach and what their impact will have in this state moving forward.
