Best BH Player you've seen Play

I played against Phillip ( great Athlete not the best FB Player). Jabo Leonard threw 8 td's in one game. Gordon Speer was great.
Casey Shows, Jeff Jones, The Pattons, and CHRIS Daniels have been the best recents. And by the way all of these guys would have been great no matter where they played.

This is for the Old School Eagles, did anyone ever see Dennis "Jabo" Leonard play? Having had the chance to work with Jabo and talking football with him, that man must have been a BEAST!

You beat me to it.  I would say" Jabo" is 1st or 2nd for sure.  Bob Steck would most likely be 1st or 2nd too.  For female hands down Pennee Hall.

Jabo would have played for the Dallas Cowboys, but they did not feel his kick-offs were deep enough. Great athlete, even better person and coach.

Well I don't know much about your guys' past players, but I'd say Viverette is the hoss on your team this year. I enjoyed watching him play against L-Town, very good, or was that just a one time thing?

Viverette has been putting up numbers all year....thru the air and on the ground.

I don't remember Pennee playing football  ;D  She was the most accomplished girls basketball player at BH but not the best all round if you take in all the sports.  Matthew's big sister Virginia and Jabo's sister Carvelynne were the best all round.

Jabo was in a league of his own.....And the kids to this day really love and respect this guy...He'd make a great head coach.....talk about a motivator,,,,

Does Jabo still teach at BH or does he just make sandwiches now? I have not seen him in a few years.

Was a great Track coach.
