How about we break it down further since Central is no more...

Best QB...

Best RB...

Best WR...

Best Other positions...

Best QB  - we always seem to have the athletic QB's and domt really focus on passing.  We've never really been a passing team.  Couple of names I think of, butt they were just athletic and disnt showcase their arms much.  R. Mitchell, arm like a rocket but not accurate.  B. William's, world class athleticism AMD 6'5", but no arm.  J. Matherson , lots of heart and quickness but vertically challenged.  Help me out Wolf if I'm missing someone.

RB - couple of names come up, but it's obviously McElroy going away.  Few names honorable mention would be M. Teacher, D. Dixon, D. Heard, D. Whaley.

WR - I'm going with G. Mitchell.  He just caught passes and did it well.  Names that can be mentioned, D. Ogletree and K. Holman.

O-line - not sure 

D-line - A. Collins. and K. Alfred can be mentioned.

LB - I forgot that MLB's name that was on that 2008 squad alongside Hale, but him.

CB - P. Locke.  Got to mention B. Thomas as he lead the district in interceptions ome year

S - J. Ruffin, T. Brown, P. Jefferson to name a few.  Never really paid too much of attention to this position.   

KR/PR - I. William's

K/P - ??.  Help me out.

Soulja ima have to disagree with a position I know about. 

 

CB- I know Locke went to Texas and all but no way he was the best CB. B.Thomas (Lamar) was definitely the better one. J.T Thomas (Houston) from that same year could also be mentioned. Played CB 1 season and was absolutely stunning.  Cantue (Alcorn St) comes to mind Dan Dan (Midwestern State) from 05, also Corey Coleman and Ivory Williams could shut down one side of the field. Central has had good DBs, most off of athleticism but BT was def the most technique sound CB

 Also them CBs from Coach Dixon days were dogs. Just can't think of there names

Ey, no problem disagreeing.  I know Thomas was dang good and your right.  I picked Locke because he's  in the NFL now. I honestly forgot about Cantue... Chopper was not a shut down corner, it was just teams were scared to throw to his side because of his blazing speed.  Yea, Coach D. Had some good CB's , but you have to remember, that era of football wasn't  spread and they weren't  real tested in the pass game. You had to be able to have decent speed and be able to lay the wood on the edges...

That's definitely true. That's why I said B.T and Jeffery Thomas. But I see what you saying with Locke. It's a reasinnge made it ti the NFL. I'd out him as more of a nickle tho since he wasnt that fast and true about chopper lol but hey if teams don't throw at you I see that as shutdown but I understand what you saying

Yes, Derrick Hall's Brother.  He was also RB...

I do remember him playing running back, but IMO I thought he was a better outside linebacker than rb that’s why I said it like that. He would lay the wood and chase down running backs from behind and could cover a slot wr when needed too. Teams game planned around where he was on the field but still couldn’t stop him.

That's true.  He was a baller.  That's for sure...

    • Wrong again. This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up   The day that Trump took office, our nation debt stood at 19.9 Trillion dollars (End of Q4, 2016).  After his tax cuts (without corresponding cuts in spending), the national debt stood at 23.2 Trillion dollars at the end of Q1 of 2020 that was the Start of COVID, FYI... Or a total increase in debt of almost 17% during Trump's first three years (and one quarter) in office.  At the end of his reign (with COVID spending for which Trump himself signed off on) was at 27.7 Trillion Dollars.  That's a 39% increase in the National Debt while Trump was in office.  For further reference, Biden inherited a 27.7 Trillion dollar debt to start.  At the end of Q4 2023, the debt stands at 34 Trillion.  That's an increase of 19% over the first three years. I know that math and facts hurt your feelings, but Trump was horrible for the country before he allowed "them Dirty Democrats to shut down the economy."  Anybody that says "Trump was good for the country" doesn't know the first thing about micro/macro economics or the effects of deficit spending.  Trump hurt us like no other president, period.  Anybody that says "Trump was good for the economy" is actually stating for the rest of us with some sense "I don't know what I'm talking about."
    • But of course you wouldn’t understand the saying. You’re so clever. Your education precedes you. 
    • Hmmmm..... Didn't they just win a football state championship?
    • The fact that you try to bolster your assertion that Trump was a bad president by using "facts" that are not attributable to him is disinformation at it's worse. It is "lying by omission", which is just another way to say big ol' fat lie. Unemployment was going down to record lows before Covid hit. You and I and almost everyone on Earth knows this, but somehow you try to spin this stat as a knock on Trump. Same for the stock market. LYING BY OMISSION. A tactic almost as old as prostitution. The debt and spending exploding due to Trump is just an old fashioned bald face lie. You seem to follow the mantra "if you tell a lie enough times it becomes fact." You are starting to resemble Biden now. Do you have any other whoppers to share?  
    • Intentionally keeping top secret documents haphazardly around the house comes to mind.  A lot of what came out of his mouth, torpedoing the political careers of republicans who didn’t fall in line?  I don’t know that he all of a sudden became a beacon of moral light and goodness just because he got into office. Again, we’re not talking about policy, but what kind of person he is.  If anything he seemed to get worse once he was in power as far as I could see.
