Stole this idea from tRant.
Did you go to a school that has a good football team?
I'll start:
Yes.
Griffin High School. Griffin, GA. (pop.about 30,000)
-3 State Titles(42, 78, & 2013)
-16 region titles
-Only 2 losing seasons the last 54 years(1968 & 2000)
-Has 20 quarterfinal appearances in program (GHSA) history
-Has produced 16 NFL players(including the Clemons boys, Jessie Tuggle, Willie Gault, Jonathan Sullivan), the most of any city in Georgia.

Midland High School, Midland Michigan. Always wins 7-9 wins every year. Not many state championships after I left (1978). But a real good team every year.

No. I’m pretty sure they still haven’t had a single winning season since its inception in 2000. Best we ever went was 5-5. So much talent around us too but we never seemed to get any of it.

Central HS in BR area. We are mediocre when I went there. My senior year, we lost our last 5 to finish 3-7. Followed that up with 0-10 each of the next 2 years. Got good in the 2000s.

Yes
From way down south in Tx so it’s hard to compete with the houston, Dallas, SA/ATX schools once you hit the 3rd or 4th round of the playoffs, but they’re a playoff team pretty much every year.

Archbishop Shaw
Shyrone Carey was our QB my sophomore year and I was in the same class as Cam Vaughn.

The Woodlands High School
I would say in Texas 6A they are one of the top teams. Not state champion level but pretty good. I think they made state semis when I was a junior in 2001 and the finals 5 or so years ago
I would say a top 25 program in Texas overall, which is pretty damn good

At least they're in 6a now and stand a chance. They have a decent squad this year.

We were good when I went there my last 2 year.
Jr. Year: Lost @ St. Martinville in the quarterfinals the last play of the game...we went for 2.
Sr. Year: Lost to Wossman in the Semifinals after being up 9-0 in the 4th quarter.
Had a 10 year vet of the Canadian football league in Brandon Hamilton who was once and answer on Jeopardy.
And a running back for USL and a guy drafted by the Red Sox.

Their QB is going to sign with a playoff-caliber program.
They will be goooooddddd this year and nobody knows it.

J O Johnson in Huntsville. We produced some NFL talent, but not a ton.
Posted on 8/22/21 at 11:46 am to SteelerBravesDawg
Played at Live Oak from '02-'06. We got progressively worse each year...
Posted on 8/22/21 at 11:47 am to SteelerBravesDawg
Ouachita Parish High back when it was 2-5A.
Posted on 8/22/21 at 11:53 am to SteelerBravesDawg
Have had some heartbreaking playoff losses the past few years. Looking for a state championship this year with a good team.

They didn't start football until after I left, and they've never done shite.

West Monroe...we won 9 games in the 3 years we were there from 87-89. Don Shows first year was 89 and it was history after that. No need to explain.
