Bush, an easy choice for me having played against him 5 times in high school. Sick, sick player at any position he played.

I absolutely hateing doing it but I voted Bush.

 

Why?

He played both ways, contributed since he was a freshman, and played multiple positions in high school on offenses all successfully.

Over Alexander??? :lol:

 

Not taking anything away from Alexander, but I believe a lot of his votes here are coming from his success in the NFL. It is hard for a mountain player to get any exposure in the Mr. Football race, and Couch was considered by many to be the best high school player ever.

Let me be the one to chime in for Duggins. If domination is defined by winning, NOBODY on the list did that like Jeff did.

You clearly know very little about the HS career of Alexander...

Is Tim Couch the only player to have won Gatorade National High School Player of The Year???

A toss up between a few players...the most productive career out of all of them though is most def. Shaun Alexander.

Wow.

Is Tim Couch the only player to have won Gatorade National High School Player of The Year???

Yes he his. Robert Smith is the only HS guy from Ohio to win the award. Is he the best ever in OH???

You tell me....

 

I would guess Maurice Clarett or Charles Woodson would be the best from Ohio.

7 Time All Pro Orlando Pace might argue with that.

Bush won one as a freshman and lost in the State Finals twice. I'm not trying to be a Male apologist, but I believe that qualifies for coming close to winning three titles.

 

I said that Bush is second, but coming close and actually doing it are two different things. Ask the Buffalo Bills. Brian stepped up and did it when it counted. Bush was a great high school player but I think Brian was better. If you throw in college, I think the gap widens. Brohm has been the better overall player.

For the purposes of this thread dominant is defined as how much better than the average player that year that particular Mr. Football was.

 

I'm going with Brohm (surprise) because of this definition.

 

Michael was very deserving of his award BUT if juniors were eligible for the award then some would have voted for Brian that year. I don't think that there was anyone else in any class in 2003 that would have given Brian any competition for the award.

 

That and Brian being 15-0 in playoff games he started get his vote for me.

7 Time All Pro Orlando Pace might argue with that.

 

I didn't know Orlando Pace won Mr Football in Ohio....

Oh. I was just going on All USAToday teams. Where did you find a list of Mr. Footballs from Ohio?
