Campbell and Dickerson are on my Mount Rushmore. Both could have probably gone straight to the pros. I give Kyler the edge because of the championships on the biggest level.

Team success shouldn’t define greatest individual talents.

And Earl and Eric both won championships .

A big storyline this week will be the return of the Allen High School product to his hometown and the stadium where he won three state titles. He is easily the greatest TX high school football players I've seen with my own eyes.

Consider the following:

• In three seasons, he accounted for 14,525 yards (10,386 passing, 4,139 rushing), 186 touchdowns (117 passing, 69 rushing), while completing 63 percent of his passes.

• He's the only two-time MaxPreps National Player of the Year, leading Allen (Texas), one of the largest schools in the Lone Star state, to back-to-back MaxPreps National Titles in 2013 and 2014.

• As a starter, he was 43-0 and the Eagles won three straight state titles, the last at the highest 6A-1 level.

• Also a baseball star, he was named the MaxPreps 2014-15 overall National Athlete of the Year and was selected the 2014 National Gatorade Football Player of the Year.

Agree. I saw him in action in the title game vs. Pearland, TX. I told my daughters who thought Pearland was going to get another State Title, "It ain't that kind of party babies".

Texas A&M is the college for the Stupid and Dumb.

Theres a VERY long list of great football players and Hall of Famers from Texas.

if you want to say Murray was on of the best, fine.
If you want to say his teams were some of the winningest, that fine too.

THE very best player...ever...is something very different.

Also, for those that aren't familiar with Allen High School......well, lets just say they do some interesting things to retain a huge advantage.

its a large Dallas suburb that has only one gigantic high school.

While all of the other suburbs have multiple schools Allen refuses to split.

The result is sometimes 2000 more students than some of the other 6A schools.

Texas 6A cutoff is 2200 student minimum.....

Allen Sr High has 5000 students....they could split and still have two large 6A schools.

They would stomp most small college teams

Adrian Peterson ? He finished his high school career with 5,011 rushing yards and 54 touchdowns in only two seasons...........

Cedric Benson >>> Kyler Murray for HS purposes.

Aven8 · Oct 13, 2020

He was amazing for a little dude. He sucked at A&M however. But he redeemed himself at OU and is doing it in the NFL now.

Benson is BY FAR the best HS player I’ve ever seen. Than UT screwed him up like they have a lot of HS greats...............

Don't see the meaning of this. So he won a lot in high school.

My brother was on the high school basketball team. And they won just about every game. But never could get past the regionals.
For 4 years they were knocked out in the finals, or before the final of the regionals.

are defense is high school level so it matters

You think the cardinals will take dalton straight up for him?

I wish Texas Tech could recruit like that....

How many other High School QBs had 2 OL and a WR that became NFL players...

There goes the platinum guarantee.

"Dalton finished his college career with 10,314 passing yards on a 61.7% completion rate, 71 touchdowns, and 30 interceptions. He also led TCU to a 44-8 record during that time, which included bowl games against Kellen Moore’s Boise State Broncos in back-to-back seasons (each quarterback got one win head-to-head) and a perfect 13-0 record in Dalton’s senior year, where he posted career highs in completion percentage, touchdowns, and passing yards."

Andy was likely the best QB in TCU history so I'm not at all worried about the Cardinals. They're both Texas boys.

He lost one game in 2012 as a starter his Sophomore year against my hometown team Coppell

Zordon said:
I forgot about that game. What happened to Coppell? You guys fell off.

Kyler actually didn't start that Coppell game. He came in during the 2nd half. Started every game after that. They discuss it in the video below around the 50 second mark.

I can already foresee this being a storyline if they shred our defense.
