Put together your schools best players of all-time. Name 11 offensive and 11 defensive players. Try putting players were they played.(ex. if they were a guard use them as a guard.) It will be interesting how many different variations of teams made up. I got the idea from the thread about Penn. all-time greatest players. Go ahead and add a coach also.

Here's my list of Highlands offensive team:

 

Qb: Jared Lorenzen - UK, NY Giants

Rb: Justin Frisk - Junior College

Rb: Rick Hoffman - I think he attended Indiana

Wr: Brett Hamblin -UK

Wr: Randy Stegeman - Miami Univ.

TE: Derek Smith - UK, Bengal's practice squad

Tackle: Zeke Reynolds - UNLV, Dallas Cowboy's

Guard: Rob Smith - UK, Cleveland Brown's

Center: ????

Guard: John Schlarman - UK

Tackle: Sean Sester - Purdue

I will go ahead and do the obvious QB for the Rock,drumroll please, Brian Brohm.

Here is a list of a few Newport players, that i have seen play. Here is some offensive from what i can remeber.

 

QB-Mike Shoemaker

RB-David Bedford

RB-David Simpson

WR-James "Shakes" Thomas

WR-

TE-Matt Atkins

T-Drew Rankin

T-Mark Switzer

G-Brian Pope

G-

C-

K-Jim Ross

 

That is all i can remeber at this time. I am sure some else can add to this, but these are the guys i remeber and had big years for the Wildcats.

Well, that would have to begin with....Me.

It would be hard to leave Barclay off any Male All-Time team. I just noticed that Chris is hanging in there with the Browns. He was a great Bulldog. IMO.

Bubba McCollum played for the Oilers for a couple years in the 70's. He passed away last year during the season. He was the DL coach for South Oldham. He did a great job at getting the most out of his DL.
