I played against Corey and Chris... well I didn't play my knee was tore up, they beat the brakes off us. I always said if I wasn't injured we would have had a chance. That's my story so let me tell it. We did boot them out the playoffs the year before. 

Grayson high in Loganville has been pretty kind the past 2 years 🥳🤣

Somebody mentioned it earlier but remarkably Waco Connally - a relatively small school -  has three players that should be big time for us this year. Jelani McDonald, Kobe Black and Tre Wisner (who started in Waco and transferred to Desoto for his last two years).  That’s impressive. 

Does La Marque only have Rashad Bobino?

also Ball High another one for the Houston area that has a few longhorns 

Midland Lee had to have a couple of notables.

Was at Fox Tech in San Antonio too. His story is interesting

The Tyler area schools, beyond just old John Tyler, have maybe produced more per capita than any. 

I’ve got to put my Longview Lobos on here.

James Street, Vondrell McGee and probably a couple others I forgot about.

Can we go ahead and add Ismael Camara (probably didn’t spell that right) or is it too soon??

Texas only has Bobino from LaMarque. 

Ball High - Casey Hampton and now Jonah Williams ... but nobody in between 

Texas City - Ervis Hill, Tyrone Jones, Everick Rawls, Jermaine Anderson, Armanti Foreman and D'Onta Foreman

In 1970, the last year of the most glorious three year run in UT football history, in which they won 30 games in a row and a national championship (1969), there were three UT All-Americans - Steve Worster, Bobby Wuensch, and Bill Atessis - all of which were starters over that three year run. 

Wuensch and Atessis were both from Houston Jones, which doesn't exist in name anymore.  It's now named Jones Futures Academy, which doesn't have a football team.

I think Eric Winston played at Miami.  He wanted to but his aggy parents wouldn't let him, so the compromise school was Miami.
