A "Big" Facelift

Hello Prep Bloggers, I'm back! I'm Manny Navarro the former High School Sports Writer for Miami-Dade and I'm excited to be back on the high school scene this year helping Andre and Bob cover the biggest stories in both Dade and Broward.

This year is going to be our best year ever in terms of high school coverage. In the coming days, you'll see a new facelift to our website including individual team pages and player statistics. But that's not all. We have partnered up with Recruitflix.com and will provide video highlights on our website for many of the high school football games this fall. If you want to check out what they do exactly check out this link.

For the past two weeks, I've been working on the first episode of our new online show The Big Show, where I countdown the Top 20 teams in our South Florida Top 20 poll. Every week of the football season, Recruitflix and our Herald Team will team up to provide a half hour VIDEO SHOW that will be available online every Wednesday. This is now run-of-the-mill high school show either. We'll have the Top 10 Plays of the Week, a thorough breakdown of the Games of The Week in Dade and Broward, The Big Story of The Week and five minute Pardon The Interupption style discussion between me, Bob and Andre on the biggest issues of the week.

No high school football show has ever gone this deep anywhere in the country. I hope you all enjoy our improved coverage on MiamiHerald.com. It's something Bob, Andre and myself have been fighting to have for many years and it appears you -- our readers -- will finally get to enjoy the high school coverage you deserve.

By the way, we also have much more planned including Live Q&As with our two high school writers. This week, as Andre heads off to Summerville, S.C. with Booker T. Washington for the big season opener, he will have a couple of Q&A sessions where you can not only ask him questions related to this coming football season but the Tornadoes' trip as well.

I invite you all season to attend the Q&As and provide us feedback on where you think we can improve our coverage. It's going to be a lot of fun.

--> Manny

Will the show be in audio or video format? It's fine and all to imagine what the top 10 plays are, but its nothing like actually seeing what you are talking about. Thanks
