Some states have 6 or 7 man tackle football in high school. Has any recruit ever had any significant success coming from one of these schools?

I'm watching Texas 6 on Amazon and was wondering.

Dj30!

He was better at any sport and position compared to Brennan. Only thing he has on dj30 is height.

It was many years ago, but Jack Pardee was a member of a six man football team in Christoval, Texas. He was an All American fullback at Texas A&M and would go on to be an All Pro linebacker for the L.A. Rams and Washington Redskins.

Pardee is also the only man to ever be head coach of team in four different professional leagues: NFL, USFL, WFL and CFL. He was inducted in the College Football Hall of Fame as a player in 1986.

I remember Pardee, and got the above info from his Wikapedia profile.

I’m pretty sure the championship Nebraska teams in the 90s had a pretty healthy portion of 6 man guys on the roster.
