9th grade, Darius White

Johnny Moore. Pick up game in Gregory.

Not football related, but baseball, Jaime Garcia from the Cards!

Kris Clack many times, from a HS playoff battle (McNeil vs Anderson) to pick-up games at Pease Park.

Played against a lot of awesome guys in baseball, but mine is probably Cedric Benson. They had Winston playing TE and lead blocking for him most of the day. We played them at Texas Satdium and I think he rolled up about 250 yards on us and left us in the dust on their way to another State Title.

Tim Brown in high school.

Johnny "Lam" Jones

Was not in our district but Llano played Lampassas from 7th grade on. He almost single handidly whipped our but every year. Phenomonal athlete.

Mine isnt even close to some of your guys but it was simoni lawrence... He played for valley forge military academy,where i played him in juco ball, as a running back and safety... Valley forge is the same school that larry fitzgerald, julian peterson and many others started at.. Simoni went on to play and start his both years at minnesota at a linebacker/safety hybrid spot.. He is currently on the bucs but will never probly see any time in the nfl due to being an undersized linebacker for the league

Grant and Ronnie Heard, Carlos Sepulveda, and Victor Schwamkrug. The Heards played ball at Ole Miss, and I'm pretty sure Ronnie was in the NFL for a few years, Sepulveda played baseball at UT for a bit, played some minor league ball and is now an actor of sorts, and Victor played golf at UH and pops up from time to time on the mini tours.

Josh Williams (Cy Creek - DL) - went on to play at MIchigan and for the Indianapolis Colts.

Got trucked a few times in 8th grade by Mathis Gill. Mathis signed with A&M but didn't take care of business and never played for A&M. He broke Roosevelt Leaks' high school records at Brenham. He was a big boy with the sweetest feet you've ever seen. I wonder what he's up to now.

Mind you it was hoops, but DFW high school ball was fairly good back in the day. Freshman year played up with the varsity and learned to stay out of Stephen Howard's way (DePaul & ESPN Analyst.) He was a monster. Also, played against Jimmy King (Fab Five-Mich) and Thomas Hill (Duke). Many more, but those guys stand out. Actually, tried to take a charge on J. King in a summer league game and he cleared all 6'3" of me to stuff it home...
