No hate, but can you really say this was the greatest high school football team ever? Putting aside being champion (which they were), I would think that the greatest high school team every would be delivering much bigger beatings than these guys seemed to deliver. Some of these games were damn close.
They had 6 nikkas play in the NFL. Could've been more because 3 High School All-Americans went to prison.
18 players got D-1 football scholarships. (Never been done since)
No high school ever since had 4 High School All-Americans on the defensive side of the ball.
The games were close because teams couldn't score on their defense.
And this was 1988 way before the spread light'em up offenses. A lot of the games was low scoring.
