Robert Joseph--DB--P.A. Memorial

[dragonsdaddy]

trying not to be scooterific, i'll say that the lowly haltom buffs may have the 2 best players in 5-5a. their mlb is a stud. big, fast, and dangerous. their wr is also one of if not the best we saw last year, as a jr. sorry i don't remember their names, but you'll hear of them if you listen very long.

[pooch]

Vondrell Longview RB

[Xfballphenome05]

Cody Beyer,Kendall Volz,and well c how that fanzuzzi kid is gunna be.

[NMHS fan]

Vondrell Longview RB

Also Mon Williams RB - Mesquite Horn

[bhs06]

Adron Tennell, Sr. Wide Reciever/Defensive Back, Irving

[SLC13]

DD.........
MLB is Anthony Lewis 6-2, 220 #13 on Rivals.com TX Top 100
WR is Jermey Brent 6-5, 200 #76 on Rivals.com TX Top 100

[bleedgreen]

not trying to be biased.........Vondrell McGee, Longview....hands down, no doubt...............

[KLH75287]

I too wanted to say Vondrell, but I keep forgetting that Lp and L'view are not in the same district any more. :o

14-5A

Drabek - TWHS and L. Hewitt - LP

What a match-up this going to be.

GO PACK IN '05

[c-lisle]

not trying to be biased.........Vondrell McGee, Longview....hands down, no doubt...............


Second that. He is the best RB in the State this year IMO, and I have seen most of the others.

[LeanderLions3033]

QB-Drew Dunn Leander(Beatty has the arm and size to be division one, but Drew was 2nd team all district last year so he gets the nod)

RB- Antwan Cobb Pflugerville (hands down, i dont know where KT2000 and ktchamp97 are getting Cameron Rogers from)

WR- Travis Njuko Leander (1st team all district, leader of the team)

TE- Derrick Lewis Pflugerville

LB- I like Bryan Parks from RR McNeil more than Marlon Williams from Pflugerville, but maybe thats just me, obviously Mike Leach doesnt agree with me ;)

DB- Reggie Madu Pflugerville Best Defensive player in this district IMO, as a Junior

Best overall player- Antwan Cobb

[RGVBadBoy]

30-5A McAllen Memorial RB Bradly Stephens 5'11 190lbs/ 4.41 40 FAT timed/ 10.7 100m/ 21.8 200m/ 48.8 400m/ 1,300yrds rushing/ 500+yrds rec/ ALL AS A SOPH!!!!!!

[Eagle81]

There are quiet a few good players in 3-5A but I guess I would have to go with Byron Batch from Midland High.

[SLC13]

There are quiet a few good players in 3-5A but I guess I would have to go with Byron Batch from Midland High.Hard to imagine that Batch will be better than Taylor Potts, AHS QB.

[dragonsdaddy]

there's a receiver that will make potts look better than he is too, imo.

[Dawg Fan]

There are quiet a few good players in 3-5A but I guess I would have to go with Byron Batch from Midland High.

I think Baron Batch will have a great year at RB but I give the nod to Potts from AHS for QB and Leong from AHS at WR

Defense wise I have to go with Leslie Ray from Lee

[drgnbkr]

Tell us a little about Leslie Ray....

[NMHS fan]

Lyle Leong? :D

[CCDawgs05]

In 13-5A....Gotta be QB Brent Garner from Cove....Thats kinda bias, but none Cove player, I would say AMC RB Daniel Palmer

[Dawg Fan]

Tell us a little about Leslie Ray....


BIG, FAST and VERY STRONG. I think you will have to double team him or he will give the QB fits. JMHO

[HSFAN_5]

QB-Drew Dunn Leander(Beatty has the arm and size to be division one, but Drew was 2nd team all district last year so he gets the nod)

RB- Antwan Cobb Pflugerville (hands down, i dont know where KT2000 and ktchamp97 are getting Cameron Rogers from)

Leanderlions3033 i don't know if you go to Leander highschool or not but for starters i'm on the damn football team and i would not say that DREW DUNN is the best player in our district. See the problem with people who don't play football is that u look at people who is first team all district or w/e they are. And u can't go by that my friend. Since u keep talking about Antwan then lets use him as an example. Antwan's talent is First Team All district material but he was hurt. All that crap is, is nothing but statistics bullSH**! My buddy ol pal.And being since i'm on the football team, i can't let u know right now that Travis Njoku is not the leader of the team, its by far DREW DUNN because he has showed good character on this team along with Jason Barnes and Todd Darnell and even Ruben Molina.Oh and i must have to agree with you, cameron Rogers is by far NOT THE BEST PLAYER IN 15-5a my friend lol. If you want to talk about the best players in 15-5a this year, i put my money on either Antwan Cobb.....Jason Barnes.....Chris Johnson(Round Rock).....Travis Njoku....or MARLON williams(LB for Pville) I've made my statement...
P.S.Even tho cameron rogers is not the best player in the district in my opinion since I ACTUALLY PLAYED AGAINST HIM AND KNOWS HOW HE PLAYS! He is pretty hard to see with Mcneils big OLINE.

[drgnbkr]

What he said.... :confused:

[LeanderLions3033]

Everything i said in my post was strictly an opinion of how i feel our district will go next year. For Travis, by leader I ment most prime time player. When we needed something done late in the season in the clutch, we went to Travis. Drew or Jason would probably be our vocal leader, or considering your on the team and im clearly not, correct me if im wrong. If you think that a healthy Antwan wont be the best rb in our district, you are sorely mistaken, i'm sorry. And Chris Johnson was one of those names that slipped my mind considering he is on one of the cellar teams in our district, the Round Rock Dragons. I think a good majority of the people on this board say that i have a fairly decent opinion. As far as my opinions go, i'm gonna hold strong with what i said. Drew at best qb , antwan at rb, Travis at WR, Derrick Lewis (trying to sound unbiased as possible by not picking Brett Schroeder) at TE, Bryan Parks at LB, Reggie Madu at db, and a healthy Antwan Cobb at rb. If not Antwan, then i will go with which ever of Leander's qb's starts between Drew, and Josh. Simmer down "my buddy ole pal".

[ilovefootball]

Dude, no one cares. and most of the people on this board don't know where leander is

[ilovefootball]

14-5A

Drabek - TWHS and L. Hewitt - LP

What a match-up this going to be.

GO PACK IN '05

Michael Goodson is clearly the best and nobody will expect a player to carry a team as much as Goodson will have to. In my opinion Goodson is even better than Vondrell

[KLH75287]

You may have a point, but I am glad you at least said it was just an opinion.

Put the crackpipe down and step away....

[c-lisle]

Michael Goodson is clearly the best and nobody will expect a player to carry a team as much as Goodson will have to. In my opinion Goodson is even better than Vondrell

How many rushing yards did Goodson have against Lufkin last year? Vondrell had 185 yds. against Lufkin. I'm sure Goodson is very good, but Vondrell is a very special player.

[StormingCowboy]

In 9-5A

Defense:
Michael Morgan LB 6-2/180 Dallas Skyline

Offense:
Curtis Bailey OL 6-7/355 Dallas Carter (Imagine lining in front of this athletic giant!! :eek: You can just call him BIG IHOP because he will be making pancakes for a living!!)

[LeanderLions3033]

Dude, no one cares. and most of the people on this board don't know where leander is

North Austin Area. The entire district 15-5a makes up the majority of the North Austin Area, just FWI. I know you dont care, but just FWI.

[Eagle81]

In 9-5A

Defense:
Michael Morgan LB 6-2/180 Dallas Skyline



If this is who I think it is, that kid looks a lot bigger than 180LBS. Very athletic.

[Mad Hatter]

Tony Harp, Derrick Willaims (6-3 195 4.4 WR) if he were on a team thet threw that ball hes be D1for sure.

[Woodlands!!]

Drabek- The Woodlands

[bleedgreen]

ilovefootball................Goodsen better than Vondrell??? are you serious??? take off those "rose-colored" glasses and send me some of what your smoking!....i'm with KLH--everyone is entitled to their "opinion"--LOL............................

[LeanderLions3033]

Goodsen better than Vondrell??? are you serious??? take off those "rose-colored" glasses and send me some of what your smoking!

In my opinion McGee is the better back as well, but you whould probably find out what rivals.com and scout.com are smoking. Obviously they all have him ranked ahead of McGee for a reason.

[bleedgreen]

forget rankings, Leander.......what are rankings good for anyway???----just an argument or two, right?? i'm talking about pound for pound, better RB......anyone who knows football can tell you who the better back is, and i'm not being biased just because i'm a Lobo......i guess i'll get some of what those guys are smoking, as well--LOL........good luck to you guys this season.................

[c-lisle]

Saw Vondrell yesterday and he looks like he has put some muscle on. I bet he shatters Talley's rushing record this year, missed by about 30 yds last year. Saw Ivory also....dude is looking like a beast. I think he is the best fullback in the state also. I'm pretty young, but I bet they are one of the best tandems in Texas HS football in quite some time. Guys this good just don't come along every year.

[Texasfrog]

How many rushing yards did Goodson have against Lufkin last year? Vondrell had 185 yds. against Lufkin. I'm sure Goodson is very good, but Vondrell is a very special player.

Not saying that one player is better than the other. I honetly think both are bigtime. But Rclisle41, you cant take stats vs Team A or Team B into account like that. Longview has alot better supporting cast (Team) to help Mcgee . Goodson doesnt have the supporting cast. I"m sure if you put Goodson on Longview's team he would of put up better numbers against Lufkin. :)

Ranking are good for a lot of stuff like...
why Judson is better than Longview! :D

Seriously, I don't know who's better, but they sure give us stuff to talk about.

[oldtimeeagle]

I would say in 3-5a it is Taylor Potts.

im really not all that ompressed with vondrell....seems like a Typical good High School running back, i dont see him being a Adrian Peterson or Jamal Charles...

[myround0]

im really not all that ompressed with vondrell....seems like a Typical good High School running back, i dont see him being a Adrian Peterson or Jamal Charles...

V-mac is no joke and should not be sold short...one minute Longview, as a team is a joke, the next minute, no one has a supporting cast like Mcgee...does it really matter, Mcgee is a great back 18 carries against a great Lufkin team for 185 yards...that is ten yards a carry...one game he carried the ball 9 times for 269 yards, you do the math...however it helps when you have a beastly Fullback like Ivory who in his own right sports a 4.34 forty...I agree the Lobos have more than any team in the state in their back field, i just wish we could get a passing game...

PS...look at Mcgee against division 1 state champs Tyler Lee with his 90 yard run...this was the Tyler Lee team who lost to Lufkin and Euless trinity with their starting linebackers out against those team yet they were full up against Longview...Look at the clip under special season preview trailer...and then tell me what you think of Vondrell Mcgee

[pack0808]

wrong!! all the tyler lee players started that game. they were beat up during the lufkin game not before it. check your fact's!! i do agree that vm is the real deal though. if lufkin and longview meet this year i promise you he will not have near those numbers.

hahaha Dang i knew that would get u pissed LOL. But bro i was just kidding around, i just wanted to see if anyone would comment on my post. Sorry EVERYONE!!! But yeah tho i already agreed wit you from the start. The only thing i REALLY wanted to add is J.Barnes and C.Johnson THE POSSIBLE CANIDATES.Oh and i like reading what yall talk about on these message boards its pretty interesting. And not to worry i ain't gunna talk Tru sh*T unless i have to.

[Gooseisland10]

Adron Tennell, Sr. Wide Reciever/Defensive Back, Irving
Is this some type of sick joke? Dude, Moody, Evans, Nance.... come on save your bias comments when at least Moody is way better then Tennell, look at the offers.

[rangerpride]

Cody Beyer,Kendall Volz,and well c how that fanzuzzi kid is gunna be.

You forgot Andrew Sendejo, the kid's an awesome athlete. He'd play TB if we weren't already stacked there, but he'll still be one of the Top 5 CB's in the state this year.

[c-lisle]

wrong!! all the tyler lee players started that game. they were beat up during the lufkin game not before it. check your fact's!! i do agree that vm is the real deal though. if lufkin and longview meet this year i promise you he will not have near those numbers.

:D :D :D

[c-lisle]

im really not all that ompressed with vondrell....seems like a Typical good High School running back, i dont see him being a Adrian Peterson or Jamal Charles...

You are in the minority. Anyone who has seen him play will tell you he is a great RB. You will probably see him toting the ball for the Longhorns in a couple of years. He will have 2500+ yds this season and do it playing some of the best defenses in Texas and the top two teams in the state of LA.

[wide-e-wide]

Drabek and Hewitt

[Favpack]

I give the nod to Michael Goodson for our district, with a close second to Kyle Drabek, and a third to Dez Bryant. Dez will be a huge surprise to this district - nobody saw him last year.

I think Leonard Hewitt will have a good year, but hard to predict he has 11 picks again. But, if he has 5-7 picks, with a couple for td's, and returns a few punts back big time - I may reconsider. I am a bit concerned about Leonard returning full form from his knee injury.

[pack0808]

favpack you are forgetting mandela roberts!! he will be an absolute terror at lb this year. aj penson has a great chance of putting some serious numbers up along with hewitt. it will be harder for hewitt considering a lot of teams will throw away from him but not for penson. many do not know him yet so he will not see the double teams. next year he will be doubled almost all of the time similar to mckinner dixon last season. he has that much potential in my opinion.

[pack0808]

my top 5 are goodson, d bryant, l hewitt, k drabek, and m roberts and watch out for aj penson and r thomas ;)

[Favpack]

Mandela Roberts will have a huge year - no doubt. Top tackler at lb last year on a very good defensive squad - this dude was on the 4x100 relay team that was not hurting for speed (Dq'd at district). Mandela is extremely smart, overly-nice to everyone (always the class favorite), and is a joy to be around. I've really enjoyed watching him grow up from the 2nd grade on.

Of course, between the lines, I'm sincerely hoping he doesn't decapitate someone this year.

[PackAttack2005]

I am surprised you Lufkin boys have not mentioned E.J. Shankle, from what I saw in the spring and 7on7 this summer he will be a force as well in 14-5A.

More speed than Goodson!

[Favpack]

If EJ can redevelop his straight forward at mach 5, fearless approach - he will be lethal. This guy could easily return 5+ kickoffs for TD's.

[KT2000]

How long into the season before EJ takes over full time at RB. From what I've seen on video and in person, I don't see why you wouldn't give that guy the ball at least 15 times a game. Injury problems, afraid of contact...? I'm certain it's not a talent issue, lol.

[Favpack]

KT -- wouldn't call it afraid of contact - but EJ is simply not a between the tackles runner. As a soph. he played tandem back with Jorvorski and was very potent on the option pitch - you'll probably see that wrinkle a few times. Personally, I'd love to see the forward shuttle pass out of the spread like Utah did in the Fiesta Bowl - that play has EJ all over it.

I doubt he'll get 15 touches a game on the O side - but, he'll get a fair share for sure.

[KT2000]

Reggie Bush isn't a between the tackles runner either, but he manages pretty well with the way they move him in and out of the backfield. It's amazing to me that Lufkin is so deep in talent that a player like EJ can't get 15 touches a game on average. If I'm Lufkin, I line him up in as many spots as possible whether it be in the backfield or out wide. Also, he'd be really dangerous in an H-back position and create mismatches...endless possibilities with shifts and motions from that look.

[CoppellCowboy57]

hrm 6-5A is hard...very hard...

Moody :)

You could be right. I have trouble remembering #7 won't be getting 20 or so carries a game - lol.

But, the more the ball is spread, the more lethal EJ becomes. I certainly plan on seeing him run back kickoffs, Hewitt will handle the punts - that's enough right there to make most opponents hold their breath a few times a game before a snap is taken.

[FootballJunkie]

In 13 5-A Brent Garner is not even the best player on his team much less in the district you might try Donald Buckram RB or Tim Atchison CB.

[pooch]

Also Mon Williams RB - Mesquite Horn

Mon is a stud too, but I'd have to give the nod to Mr. McGee.
