Oxbridge Academy shutting down football program this fall
Oxbridge was a sketch school for football and everyone had an idea I know they had problems before with getting kids in and fudging some grades and A disgruntled parent whistle blew on them before ... kind of a shame they have a sick high school field
This exact thing almost happened at the school that beat them in the state title game. Chaminade-Madonna was close to shutting down their football program just a few years ago. Most of the star athletes at these private schools are on some type of "scholarship" where they only pay partial or even zero tuition. At a large private school like STA, losing out on tuition money for "scholarship" players doesn't rally hurt the school's bottom line because they have a large tuition paying student body. 3A schools don't have the enrollment to cover the extra costs of a football program so they either drop football or require large donations from local boosters to cover the costs. Remember that private schools are about turning a profit first and foremost, so if an athletic budget hurts their bottom line, they drop it.
Did not NSU school have problems a some years back? I recall something about the school. perhaps I am wrong.
Correct. Uschool didn't shut their program down but once Harriot left, most of the talent transferred out. This is actually pretty common in south Florida and it happens at public schools too.That problem was a little different but the program still suffered for a while.
After ‘The Purge,’ University School football faces challenges, goes against the grain

Yea I drive past that field everyday to work and it is beautiful. It’s a shame. Also went to the UM scrimmage there in 2016 spring and it was awesome!Oxbridge was a sketch school for football and everyone had an idea I know they had problems before with getting kids in and fudging some grades and A disgruntled parent whistle blew on them before ... kind of a shame they have a sick high school field
Their field is beautiful. Such a shame it will go to waste now, or be used for lacrosse or something.
