No admins monitor this board at all any longer.
MSB would be a great place this strange thread.

1990 Ruston (La.) Bearcats

The SPU teams at the beginning of their 89 game win streak were unbelievable. Kids were dumb as bricks or they would have had 15+ DI prospects every year.

1988 Vigor Wolves Prichard, Al ESPN National Champions, most physical and quick high school D I ever saw and a lot of talent on offense.
Lectron Williams

Yes. Had at least 3 NFL players. Probably 90 percent of starters went on to get scholarships. Terrell Buckley also on it. Funny thing is probably the 2 best players never went anywhere but prison.

2009 South Pointe HS, with a then realitvly unknown Jadaveon Clowney. They destroyed my high school 52-0.

West Monroe team from late 80s had grown men on defense.

More than that. 17 in all. Best team for me as well. Beat Catholic 52-14 IN the dome facing Warrick Dunn, and that was one of the close games lol. The 98 West Monroe Rebels are up there as well. Also Evangel had a few stacked teams and of course the 2006 Curtis team. There was also a Haynesville team that was the most dominant I'd ever seen, led by Bobby Ray Tell

Come on. There's better High School teams than that. You must not watch much high school football.

1985 J.O.Johnson - Huntsville.
Travelled and played Powerhouse Moeller HS and beat their asses in their own house. (33-14 or something like that)
Ended Moellers streak of consecutive wins against out of state opponents.
Moeller fans were laughing at the JOJ players due to their lack of size prior to the game. JOJ finished in the top 10 nationally that year (I think).

Remember Gerry Faust and his setting back Notre Dame football 20 years?

How bout you name some key recruits on those teams. Otherwise this thread will suck fat ones.
