I saw Kevin Faulk, Alley Broussard and Keiland Williams play when they were all in high school. Best player I actually played against, however, would have to be Prentiss Wagner when he was at Clinton, the kid had some sick speed.

Great bump, and awesome to see somebody peg Luck as a future star 3.5 years ago.

For me...

Football:
Warrick Dunn at Catholic (even though people thought Kevin Franklin was better...)
Jamie Spencer at West Monroe

Basketball:
Lester Earl at Glen Oaks, Isaac Hawkins at Istrouma, Jody Nelson at EA and Adarrial Smylie at St. Amant all at the same time. High school hoops was a BLAST back then.

Arthur Brown from KSU, if you actually watch the guy he is an animal.

I also played baseball against Bubba Starling who went to Nebraska to play football and signed a multi-mil contract with the Royals. Should be in the pros within the next 5 years.

I live in Kansas and we get our fair share of really good athletes, but the guys that turn into stars are few and far between.

Alonzo Morning at King Cotton
LaPhonso Ellis in East St Louis
Richard Dumas Tulsa Tounament of Champions

The only one that truly beat us was Morning. We beat the other two. Not bad for a bunch of white guys who had no NCAA signees.

I would have to say the best I have seed was Anthony Thomas (Winnfield High School). He flat out ran over everybody in high school.


I went to one of his games and it seemed like every time they would hand it off to him he would score a td.
