I'm a bit of a history buff. Found this article and thought it was pretty interesting. Just shows how much great talent comes from this state and ends up at UF,FSU,Miami

Wow ! John L. Williams had 10,000 all purpose yards in 10 NFL seasons.

I quit reading when I got down to the "O's" and there was no Larry Ochab.

Had the privilege of watching Leon Bright run the ball at Merritt Island. Guy was amazing. He's a really good guy too.

Here's a really old article about guys that were on the 1972 State Championship team (back when 4A was the largest school classification). Amazing to have so many great players at one time on a high school team. Clint Hurdle is mentioned in there (played QB later but was a back-up on the 1972 team). He's the manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates now.
