Wow, with all the attention on other recruits, we have obviously slept on Derail Green.Originally posted by htown44 View Post
Have we had a Texas recruit with that kind of recognition?"Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should accomplish with your ability."

Not sure. We had a recruit out of Dallas many years ago who had a pretty good career at WSU. Not sure what kind of high school recognition he received. Name escapes me...wait a minute, oh yeah Dave Stallworth.Originally posted by wu_shizzle View Post
Seriously though I do not really know how heavily Dave was recruited or how highly regarded he was coming out of high school.
This 2009 article included Dave as one of the Top 16 players to ever come out of Texas although not sure if that is based on high school careers or their entire body of work through pro ball:
Sorry to high jack the thread. Dave's my all-time favorite.Last edited by 1972Shocker; March 13, 2012, 04:59 PM.Comment

Stallworth was a very big deal.In the fast laneComment

Warren Armstrong and Simmie Hill were very big deals too. I believe that Hill was thes second rated recruit behind Lew Alcindor.Originally posted by tropicalshox View PostComment

Yes, but the question posed was for recruits out of Texas. I think Simmie was from PA and Warren was from KC, MO.Originally posted by shockmonster View PostComment

I will be more than satisfied if we get as much production and class out of Derail as we did our last recruit out of Klein Forest.Comment

Too bad we didn't have someone close to the situation at KF like we've had for FVV. Green would be getting a lot more loveInfinity Art Glass - Fantastic local artist and Shocker fan

I haven't seen where the TABC all-state teams have been announced. Am I wrong? Or is this just inside information supposedly?Comment
