94Packer Posted January 19, 2021 Report Share Posted January 19, 2021 Got to watch my oldest sons LAST high school football game yesterday. It’s been a hell of a ride. He got an opportunity to play in the FL vs GA game in Miami yesterday. The talent was amazing. The refs were homers but GA still pulled off the W. Larry Blustein, Kenyatta Watson, and Faheem Ali, brought back to life a great game. FullSizeRender.mov 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite high school football game to see; talent, speed, size, strength! One of the best high school football games I've ever seen (99')! Congrats on the kid playing! And congrats on the GA win!!! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look it this way - combined they're about equal to the population of TX and less than Cali but combined completely dwarf those states. There is no stretch like GA through FL.....throw in Louisianna, AL and MS and you'll see some crazy per capita stuff going on https://thespun.com/nfl/graphic-the-10-u-s-states-with-the-most-current-nfl-players https://nflcommunications.com/Pages/Saint-Thomas-Aquinas-High-School-of-Fort-Lauderdale-Has-Most-NFL-Players--.aspx 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Columbiafan Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 Just as people incorrectly claim St Thomas Aquinas is a SFL "all star" team It's very Inaccurate, all star would mean the best players at every position in all of SFL If I cared enough to pull up every roster I could show better players at most positions that can be found in SFL on another team not named STA STA has one of the deepest teams in SFL but are not an all star team, if they were truly an all star team they wouldn't even come close to losing to anyone they played no matter how lazy all star teams could choose to be (IMG) though honestly even IMG doesn't have the best of the best at every position on the team and therefore aren't all stars either despite the constant misuse of that term 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that kids can enroll early in school or have these high profile coaches telling kids not to play b/c they report to campus in a month and the likes, have really killed all-star games. To bring back a true all-star game, states like PA, OH, FL, GA, etc.. need to have a Juniors-only (seniors to be) at the start of the summer (June). This would potentially put all seniors-to-be on the larger recruiting map prior to the season. No college scholarships would be jeopardized due to injuries, etc.. PA and OH had the Big 33 game back in the day and it was one of the most talent filled all-star game at every position played every june at Hershey PA. Week long event w/ 3, 4 and 5 star studs finishing the week off w/ one hell of an all-star game. This game started back in the 60's w/ , Nameth and Adderly, and then Kelly, Marino, Montana, Dorsett, Harrison Sr, Ty Law, Curtis Martin, Ricky Waters, Lavar Arrrington, Bob Sander, and the likes. The last great Big 33 games were really w/ Rothlesburger to Darrel Reevis, and that was right around the start of the 21st century (maybe 00'-02'). Now a days states are looking for county all stars to fill these rosters b/c all the 4 and 5 stars to "whatever" to play. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under Armour does nationwide all star game starting in middle school on a invite only deal. Its held in Florida and for this year there was Junior all star game between Fl and Georgia. Its hard to catch them because most aren't televised and even with the juniors you have opt outs due to campus visits camps and dual sport athletes. Ill try to find the film from the junior games. Ware Co. QB Thomas Castellons was the MVP 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame because these events could be so much better and bigger if done correctly I agree with the idea of making all star games more in the summer for upcoming seniors but even then some high school coaches or 7v7 travel coaches would object so honestly we probably have to accept these all star games don't hold the same weight they did in the past I would much rather see a border war series with a state like FL vs GA during the early weeks of the regular season to get some of the top high school teams in both states to go head to head on the field just because it may be the closest we could see to an all star game in today's climate of sports 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
