DevilDog Posted December 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2019 A couple years ago they combined stats on which State produced the best College Football players including how many were all American etc. Clearly this alone tells you about the level of HS Football in Texas. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2713445-ranking-every-state-by-elite-college-football-talent-produced#slide0 1. Texas Von Miller paid a lot of visits to opposing quarterbacks while at Texas A&M.Dave Einsel/Associated Press Score: 91 (40 5-Star Recruits; 20 AP All-Americans; Six 5-star All-Americans; One two-time AP All-American; Two Heisman Winners) Most Noteworthy Player: Von Miller (Texas A&M LB, 2007-10) It should come as no surprise that the state which served as the setting for Friday Night Lights has been responsible for a ton of college football's stars. Heisman winners Robert Griffin III and Johnny Manziel both played high school and college football in Texas. Two-time Heisman runner-up Andrew Luck also played high school ball in Texas. However, rather than choosing from that list of great college QBs, we're giving the "Most Noteworthy Player" title to a five-time Pro Bowl LB who has made a living out of terrorizing quarterbacks. Before becoming the No. 2 pick in the 2011 NFL draft, Von Miller recorded 33.0 sacks for Texas A&M. He did the vast majority of that damage in his final two seasons, averaging better than one sack per game from 2009-10. With Myles Garrett, Jackson Jeffcoat, Malcom Brown, A'Shawn Robinson, Malik Jefferson and Ed Oliver also available as options, one could make an impenetrable defensive front seven just from guys who went to high school in Texas. And in addition to the aforementioned QBs, offensive weapons like D'Onta Foreman, LaMichael James, Mike Evans, Josh Doctson and Dede Westbrook would make the Lone Star State an unstoppable scoring machine, as well. All told, Texas has produced 29 All-Americans in the past seven years. That's almost as many as the 31 that Florida and California have combined for during that time. And it's why head coach of the Longhorns remains one of the most sought-after positions in college football despite seven consecutive seasons with fewer than 10 wins.

Last year at this game in the Death Star was just incredible. I have never seen that much speed in a HS football game ever. Everyone knows speed equals high impact. It was crazy and the final just made it memorable. Because of the significance of the 1st time 2 Minority programs met for the Biggest Title in Texas. I kept the tickets and had them sealed to pass on. I believe as the years pass that game will become more significant. And now to get a part II is even more exciting. Of course I am pulling for the DUB and Coach Samples. But after last Year either way if I get to see them again in Part II even without JJ it has to be great. Where else but Texas does a kid play in a HS Playoff game as a Freshmen and Get a DI offer after. Kansas offered that Fr. QB. And did you notice it looked like he threw the Hook Em Down when he went into the End Zone. UT has problems with a certain group Texas kids. I mean the DFW area ballers. OU is killing in the DFW. The Redskin even said she is pissed that J.J. is going there and the Lobo Defensive Tackle decommited from OSU and is leaning toward UT. She says why would they go there and suck. When better kids don't get to play because of politics. I read that somewhere else recently as well. And Thompson might hit the Transfer pool. Here he is in post game interview along with others including Coach Samples Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilDog Posted December 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2019 Another Look in" Damn they look like the Freaking Giants in those Unis At the 8:44 mark it looks like he throws the Horns down on his left hand. I have seen other views as well. Not 100% sure but sure looks like it. My favorite quote from the video: Someone asked could they beat SJB or MD? "Of course they could. This is a homegrown team that the majority of their players played at Reid or Byrd middle school. If there's one thing we can take from this Duncanville team, is that they beat you in the trenches on both sides of the ball." "Anyone that says Duncanville has no shot against those heavily recruited schools is a habitual liar." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most people were saying Lone Star until yesterday. We know Ryan is for real now. WL, we don't know completely about yet, you can't get anything from the Taylor game. Taylor got a good draw in a weaker 6a D2 region 3 this year. First semifinal for them, most knew what the outcome would be yesterday. I would give the nod to Guyer, but wouldn't be surprised if WL wins. Of course I want FB Marshall over Aledo, this should be a good one. La Vega and Carthage, just going to have to watch and enjoy this one. The other game I have interest in is 2a D1. Come on Post. I don't know how many times I have driven through this town on my way to and from Lubbock. It would be great for them. I'm not seeing Shadow Creek beating this Denton Ryan team. That team is stupid good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
