Touted? Maybe. I mean we've heard about this kid forever. Brock Berlin was USA Today National Player of the Year though. As far as best actual player, sorry but its Kevin Faulk. Best high school football player I've ever seen and I've seen everyone listed in this thread so far.

I played linebacker in high school against Faulk, Nixon and scrimmaged against Dunn. Dunn was very good but Nixon was better (at least in high school). Nixon had a ton of yards that year and was a monster at Jennings, but he was their whole team. Faulk though was a different story. He played with Ernest Lazzar (sp?) who was a giant. Faulk played quarterback and they ran an early version of the read option. Faulk could not be stopped. At a point in the game he made a long TD run past me like I was standing still. It was the only time in my life I was in awe as a football player.
