We are well into the new year and the South Florida High School Sports Radio Show took center stage with three impressive guests on a Wednesday night.
Each week, the FM 104.3 WQAM radio program attracts the newsmakers in high school sports, recruiting college sports – not only locally, but throughout the country.
The show gives listeners an opportunity to hear about college football programs statewide from the media that cover them. It also focuses on the coaches who use the state of Florida – Miami-Dade and Broward Counties in particular.
The program, which has run for nearly two decades and has been recognized nationally as one of the best of its kind, has become a popular listen for recruiting fans as well as high school sports purists, focusing on high sports and the newsmakers.
Here is a look at the way Wednesday went:
The Florida International University football program finished 7-6 and went to a bowl game this season under first-year head coach Willie Simmons. Kevin Barral from the Paws Up Podcast talked about the season and future of this program.

It has not been the best two years for the Florida State University football program – with the Seminoles dropping out of the ACC title picture. Can things be turned around in Tallahassee? Liam Rooney from the Tallahassee Democrat talked about it all.

Tough way to end a football season for the Miami Hurricanes, but with 13 wins and a solid showing in the national championship game, there is reason to believe that this program is now back among the top football programs in the country. Jordan McPherson joined the show to talk about this team, moving into the future.

The Miami Carol City High football program has long been a symbol of excellence. Great coaching, players and tremendous fan support has surrounded the Chiefs through the years. While things have not been what many have been used to over the years, the hiring of head coach Toro Wallace has energized the students, administration and a loyal fanbase.
