I am just going with the thread and picking based on High School performance. You are
implying an extended path to the next level. I'm sure many of these guys went on to
have outstanding futures. But, (and I apologize if this offends anyone, but I am an old
mountain boy) just saying that some Mountain boys, like myself, had the offers and never
pursued them. And, I still say that from the pool of Mountain wonders (with a little old
school) would take care of business against a top city roundup.

With all due respect I have to disagree!!! Look at players like Paul Hourning, Phil Simms, Shaun Alexander, Lorenzen, Mike Bush, Brohm, Tony Driver, etc the mountians don't stand a chance. These are all guys that competed at the HIGHEST level in college and played in the NFL.
