Anthony Carter and Richard Rellford of Suncoast High School

Both went to Michigan. AC for football, Rellford for hoops. I thought Rellford was better at football than basketball, actually.

Tim Simon was the best player I played as against he got hurt as a freshman at Ole Miss and never played again. Marquis Maze would be a close 2nd

I've been a USSF referee in GA for the last decade, so I've seen a few changes in the landscape.

You may be interested to learn that Georgia Soccer has pretty much dissolved over the last few months. All the big clubs (NASA, SSA, UFA, etc) have left USYSA for SCCL. The club where I work is considered a small club, but has made that jump as well because we are extremely competitive at the state and regional level. Benefit for me is much higher game pay rates. :)

Probably Ingle Martin(Florida/Furman) from MBA in Nashville, can't remember the exact score; but I'm pretty sure he torched us. Jake Slaughter(Auburn) at Brentwood Academy was another one.

Baron Davis, CrossRoads Christian. Dustin Hoffman’s son was on that team as well (but not as good as Baron Davis).

How many Baton Rouge athletes could have played two major professional sports? Pretty short list. The best I saw was:

Billy Cannon Jr. - Broadmoor High. 1st round pick by Dallas Cowboys and would have been high pick in baseball.

Warrick Dunn and Kevin Franklin running the option in early 90's @ CHS. You were screwed either way.

Major Applewhite and Travis Minor in '96-'97 timeframe as well.

A tossup between:

Mike Stonebreaker. Played against him in '84 quarterfinal playoff game. A teammate of mine was in the East-West All-Star game and Stonebreaker nailed a running back. Got in the running back's grill and said "That's why they call me Stonebreaker, motherfricker!"


Sol Graves. Lit up our secondary my senior year in a '85 regional playoff game.

Willie Anderson
Ralph Staten

I lined up across from Big Willie when was was a senior left tackle for Vigor HS. Willie went on to start for Auburn and he played for the Bengals and Ravens.
Ralph Staten played both ways for Mary G Montgomery HS as their ILB, TE, and he was even their punter. Ralph went on to start for Bama as our ILB and he played one season for the Ravens.
