Not many big names, but guys who went on to the SEC:

Register, Brad 1996 University of Georgia
Reynolds, Justin 1996 University of Georgia
Klein, Jeff 1998 Auburn Unversity
Burgett, Chris 2000 University of Georgia
Koehler, Billy 2001 University of Georgia
Boling, Clint 2007 University of Georgia
Ford, Elton 2008 University of Arkansas
Smith, Justin 2008 Ole Miss

Couldn't find class of 2009 or 2010. Biggest name to come out went to Clemson and was Charlie Whitehurst.

Any old School Auburn fans remember this guy? He was a senior when I was a freshman. Personally saw him shatter 2 backboards while playing bball.

From Wikipedia:

Ronald Tobias Stallworth (born February 25, 1966 in Pensacola, Florida) is a former professional American football defensive end who played for two seasons with the New York Jets of the National Football League. At 6' 5" 262 lb., Stallworth played college football at Auburn University in Alabama.

In 1983 while attending Woodham High School in Pensacola he was named USA Today Defensive High School Player of the Year.

Not exactly big time players, but Preston Dial (ex-Bama player) and Brandon Gibson (Bama WR). Oh and Jay Prosch (started at FB for Illinois and was on ESPN's Top 10 freak list this year. He's a beast)

Did they just go to your school, or were you in school with them?
Micheal Davis was one year behind me, Duece was two and Shay came along several years afterwards. My first cousin and Deuce played football together and he used to come to our muscadine vineyard and pick 'dimes with him

Roman Harper and a lot of other guys, but Roman is the most "big time"

Ha ha. I said big time, meaning "have we heard of them?"

Sammie Coates destroyed my high school in the playoffs last year. I wouldn't be surprised if he got a lot of PT this year at AU

LOL. OK. Let me explain a little better.

There were a few people being "apologetic" because the people they were listing weren't superstars or whatever, so I was just clarifying that all I meant was if you went to school with anyone we would know about. I would change the thread title, but just don't feel like it

And yes, heard of Harper. See my props for Deuce earlier. I'm not sure how long it's going to take for me to forgive him for letting Bradford run him down last year

Clint Boling and Charlie Whitehurst would be my answer then.

Two Arky responses, and both of them reinforce my distaste for a lot of their fans.

FTW.....I was going to say Larry Roberts, but realize that I graduated HS before most of the rant was even thought about, let alone conceived.

Had some classes with Lou Williams (UGA signee) and Mike Mercer. Went to school with Mike Grant and Joe Side. David Greene was just a little bit ahead of me but the same high school.

Not high school but had an English class with both Latrell Sprewell and Robert Horry. Antonio Langham, Antonio London, Tony Johnson, Michael Rogers and Irvin Spikes played on our softball team.

Totally off subject but if you don't like it then
