RedZone Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 Louisiana Player of the Week. Woodlawn (Baton Rouge) RB Amani Givens: 5-8 193 lbs, 4.5 forty and 330 bench press Say what you will about Woodlawn (they do lack polish), but NO other RB this year has come close to doing what Givens did vs Catholic-BR. It's not like Catholic said "hey, here's 35 points, run all over us because we like you). Givens got some blocking from the big dudes. Feel free to add your states Most Undervalued RB this year.

Nolebull813 Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 Why was he undervalued? You are supposed to be the Louisiana guy with the inside info. You can’t try and jump on the bandwagon after he has a breakout game. You are just taking other people’s info. Quit riding the coat tails of others and get your shit together.

Amani Givens doesn't even have a recruiting profile, dumbass and he gets overshadowed by the 3* and 4* RBs in Baton Rouge. People in Louisiana know who he is as he makes the blogs/websites every week. If I had posted his highlights from some other Baton Rouge games people like YOU would say that team sucked. Now you know who Amani Givens is and you are more educated on the subject of undervalued RBs. RB Amani Givens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZone Posted November 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 The depth of talent and teams in Louisiana cannot be matched by any similar sized state and even some bigger states. Just can't, It's why Calpreps/Massey are jokes and why most people on this forum are jokes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZone Posted November 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 Metro Baton Rouge has a population of 875,000. Baton Rouge 230,000 It's not some hick college town. Calpreps doesn't know that though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZone Posted November 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 5A/D1 Scotlandville, right down the street from Woodlawn in East Baton Rouge has 2 3* D1 RBs RB Marion Gunn (East Carolina commit) https://247sports.com/player/marlon-gunn-jr-46101240/ RB Chance Williams (Memphis, South Alabama offers) https://247sports.com/Player/Chance-Williams-46086287/ Woodlawn RB Amani Givens is as good as those guys. ...in my opinion. Anyways, I hate Calpreps, it's a joke! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RB Amani Givens Looks like Darren Sproles. I'd say 3 stars and a team like Florida, TCU, Okie Lite, Kentucky, or Iowa State would be good fits for him 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He currently has 0 offers and probably ends up at La-Lafayette or similar......maybe goes FCS. I don't make stuff up like gardenstateballer/bishopsycamorejoe, Givens is not highly recruited at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had 1 offer from La-Lafayette, they gave him 2 stars. https://247sports.com/Player/Elijah-Mitchell-82097/high-school-142476/ The rookie Mitchell is now doing BIG things with the 49ers and the 49ers love him a lot. Another big week for Mitchell this past Sunday. Just click "Watch on YouTube". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolebull813 Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 You never even heard of the RB or the team, and now you are bitching that the world doesn’t know about them either.

Atticus Finch Posted November 2, 2021 Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 Maybe next RedZone will update us on Lance Legendre. Or the fact that since losing 53-0 to Deerfield Beach, Zachary has won 25 of their 28 games and has lost those 3 games by a total of 11 points.

RedZone Posted November 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2021 I know Florida is jealous......can't help that, sorry! Florida is nothing but an overgrown Louisiana with better beaches.

Zachary is another ATHed up Baton Rouge team only this year they have one of the best QBs in the Nation in the 2023 class. Some say he's better than Arch Manning. 4* Eli Holstein (Texas A&M commit) https://247sports.com/player/eli-holstein-46099544/ You judge if he's better than Arch Manning. http://www.hudl.com/v/2GEtL3 Haven't made my mind up on Zachary yet this year....State Championship level talent all over the field, but they can pull a Miami Northwestern and just not show up for games.

I like Destrehan (Metro NOLA) a lot..........home of Ed Reed, Justin Jefferson and etc. Monster team this year, but they had almost half their schedule wiped out because of Hurricane Ida. The River Parish (Destrehan, Hahnville) got hammered. I wouldn't lie to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of people weren't all that impressed with Peyton and Eli at various points of their development. They laid plenty of eggs in their high school careers. I'll just leave it like that.
