    Best HS FB Player You PERSONALLY Saw Play

    There are some very comprehensive articles on Miles on the web. Can you imagine what a lot for us would give to have God-given talent like he had? When people talk about Miles sometimes it's like they've seen Jesus...it's like something you can't imagine how good he was. I wonder if there's...

    ****erson was recruited to SMU by Suzy Wilkoff, who later came to UM to be recruiting coordinator under Schnellenberger. I think back then a recruiting coordinator was more of an administrator and not a substantive football person or assistant coach. She would set up visits, coordinate contacts...

    I met Twan and followed his UM career. Nothing like his father, I'm sure. Tony Russell caused a lot of problems for us.

    I think we played against Brown at Ann Arbor in '88.

    Jackson originally committed (and maybe signed) with Notre Dame I think. He ended up at prep school before coming to Miami.

    Did Plano play Dallas Carter for state championship in '88?

    Best HS FB Player You PERSONALLY Saw Play

    Miami used to get great players from Wisconsin. Longtime Cane player and coach Walt Kichefski was from Rhinelander. **** Sorensen was from Menashe, I believe. Pete Banaszak was from Wausau. There were others--mostly in the '50's and '60's.

    Western NY used to be very good in football. We got some very good players, all-time UM great Don Bosseler from the '50's was from Batavia. He's in the College Football HOF. More recently, Jim Burt was from Buffalo. Syracuse used to have good teams Ernie Davis was from Elmira.

    Did you see him at Elmira? I watched him run all over UM in the OB in the early '60's. Another truly sad story. Nothing that he brought on himself, either.

    LeBron James HS football coach was former Cane LB Jay Brophy, I believe.

    I've read about him. Amazing talent, sad story. Who did he sign with, was it UF?

    He ran crazy on us at Pitt in '86. We still won.

    I saw Ted in HS, but strangely, don't remember him. I watched Russ Smith run crazy on Greentree during spring 1963. The breakaway back we never had. Best single game performance I saw in person was probably David Hiss from Columbus in '62. Then I watched Richie Anderson run wild in his final HS...
