Can anyone give a run down of the players to keep an eye out for in tonights games that are on ESPN and ESPN2?


Plant vs. Manatee and the two California teams

As far as the CA game Grant (Sacramento) vs. Folsom:

Grant is absolutely loaded. They traditionally always have size and atheliticism, but this may be one of their best teams ever. Think of them as a Long Beach Poly of Northern Cal. Except IMO maybe tougher than LBP. Vei Moala monster at DT and also plays OL for Grant. Folsom runs a very exciting spread offense, with an experienced senior qb Graves. The key will be holding off Grant's D which has Moala and also DE Poka Lopa, plus d-1 recruits James Sample, Shaq Thompson. Grant has 18 starters returning and tallied 9 shutouts last year. So this game is strength vs. strength.
I expect Grant to win the Open Division CA state championship this year, but would love to see Folsom give them a test tonight. If Folsom can give their qb time, it will be a very entertaining game.

The Sophmore QB for Manatee looks like he could be a player down the road.

Blakely is by far the more impressive player between he and Wilder so far.

I hope Manatee wins just so we don't have to hear "Ely hasn't lost even in high school" for the next Bammer QB. Blakely is a beast.

Still early but Wilder does not look impressive at all. Plant's line is getting blown up too. So much so far for Posada.

I can see why Wilder wants to play RB at next level...dude can't tackle. That was a very, very poor effort on that long TD by Blakely

28 7 manatee. Pompay (sp) is playing like a mad man. Is he considering us? Couldn't find a thread but my droid wouldn't let me search either
