Who are the top 5 or 10 or 20 or so football factory high schools in your state?

In Arkansas, I suppose it's Bryant, Conway, Fayetteville, Bentonville...Fort Smith Northside sometimes, Little Rock Parkview and Robinson, North Little Rock and lately Maumelle...
I'm taking a stab at some other SEC states:
Kentucky: Louisville Male and Louisville Trinity, Danville?, and Paducah Tilghman
Tennessee: Murfreesboro Oakland, Brentwood Academy, Pope John Paul now?, Alcoa (3A or whatnot, I know), McCallie and Baylor, Memphis Melrose (still?), I'm forgetting some good ones
I'm not touching Georgia, Florida and Texas because I'm so out of the loop I don't know which former powerhouses are still powerhouses.
guessing at a Louisiana top five, I'm sure I'll butcher it: Evangel, Baton Rouge Catholic, Marrero Shaw, River Ridge John Curtis, and West Monroe - I know I got some of them right. Ruston used to be, not anymore I'm sure.
Arkansas loves to recruit Tulsa, Oklahoma and surrounding suburbs - is Jenks the best program in Oklahoma?
Springfield (MO) Kickapoo used to be a powerhouse - Kansas City Rockhurst I think still is. Chrisian Brothers in ST Louis I think.
Texas, Florida, Georgia responders, keep it to a top 25 if you can...
I'm going to butcher these Mississippi guesses for a top five: Moss Point, Biloxi, Gulfport, South Panola and hell I don't know...?

Little Rock Central used to be the bellcow of Arkansas football talent production. As they've dropped off in terms of talent production it has really impacted the University of Arkansas.

Central dropped like a rock in the 90's and never recovered
Parkview has only recently come back

Others know better than me, but few programs immediately jump to kind who are loaded every year it seems like….
Westlake, Lake Travis & Vandegrift around Austin
Katy, North Shore, CY Fair, Galena Park, Atascocita, The Woodlands around Houston.
Dallas area has the most…two Denton HS (Guyer & Ryan), Duncanville, Independence, Marcus, Aledo (closish), Desoto, Garland, Euless Trinity, Allen, Southlake Carrol, Flower Mound, etc.

They still have the talent but either play basketball or no sports at all.

Bryant is getting the Little Rock talent.
They use to be like Sheridan.

What's the criteria? In GA, Valdosta has won more games and more state titles than any HS program in the country. But then you've got a school like Norcross that has 6 current players in the NFL.

Central won a few state titles in the early 2000s.
I believe Little Rock Central has won more football state titles than any high school in the nation.
30 state titles and Pine Bluff is second at 23.
