I remember when I was little, probably 7 or so, going to a high school football game with my parents. This player on the opposing team just dominated the game. He ran over people, he blew past people. No one could stop him. I had never seen someone who was just so much better than everyone else on the field. One of the adults leaned in and told me "That kid will play in the NFL one day." To this day, one of the most amazing individual performances I've ever seen live. The player? Cecil Collins.

i would say the LSU class of 2000... i cut out a sports section bc it had the baseball standings on it, but on the back it had a blurb about Ben Wilkerson, C from Hemphill, TX.

i would guess he was maybe 3* at best if he was rated, not much buzz, but he started all 4 years and won the Rimington award for the best college C.

also another one i followed from HS was the late Marquise Hill from De La Salle
