9/2 vs Bryant AR! 

Wow they’re actually traveling out of state for this game. If only it was a more compelling opponent. I’ll take it though. 
 

They’re traveling down to San Antonio to start the year, and then to Louisiana to face an Arkansas team the following week. The OOS game is still a closer drive for Denton Ryan than their inter state game.

lol, there is a ton that has changed in HS football. The specialization, the amount of money and time spent on strength and conditioning, the facilities arms race(particularly in Texas), the focus and improvements in offense, the de-emphasis and worsening of defense (particularly in Texas), the explosion of personal position private training, in addition to the amount of teams willing to travel across the country. 
 

Curious as to what crosses the line and examples of “unethical recruiting habits”?

Not being Dick - not much has changed except these few really recruited private schools.

Specialization is stupid and has never been good for any athletes.

Facilities - Texas been on top of this going back over 20 years. With weight rooms and indoors 

now I am being Dick - get out of here with the BS about defense.  Rules are the only thing changed 

I hate these recruited up private schools - where the hell where these same schools less than 10 years ago???

For the second time in three years, Texas had the most former high school football players selected in the NFL Draft. The Lone Star State had 32 players taken over seven rounds of the 2022 NFL Draft in Las Vegas followed by Georgia (30), California (22) and Florida (21).
 
Ohio (13), Alabama (12), Louisiana (10), Maryland (10) and North Carolina (10) were the only other states to have 10 or more selections. 
 
Cedar Grove (Ellenwood, Ga.) was the only school to have three selections as Jelani Woods was the first to go in the third round by the Indianapolis Colts with the 73rd pick. DeAngelo Malone went nine picks later at No. 82 to the Atlanta Falcons and Justin Shaffer was selected in the sixth round by Atlanta. 
 
Archbishop Murphy (Everett, Wash.), Archer (Lawrenceville, Ga.), Carlsbad (Calif.), Cherokee (Canton, Ga.), IMG Academy (Bradenton, Fla.), Klein Collins (Spring, Texas), Long Beach Poly (Long Beach, Calif.), Marist (Atlanta), Neville (Monroe, La.), Plant (Tampa, Fla.), Riverdale Baptist (Upper Marlboro, Md.), Saraland (Ala.) and Southern Lab (Baton Rouge, La.) all had two selections each.

Interesting tweet.  Several think it’s chad morris at Allen.  

Hope not. Kind of hoping to see some change over at Cedar Hill. Bring them back to their glory days. All that talent and nothing to show for it.
