America's Most Talented High School Football Team: IMG Academy
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 ноя 2015
- Just south of Tampa and St. Petersburg, Florida, lies a city called Bradenton. It's home to IMG Academy, a private boarding school that also serves as an offseason training facility for some of the top professional athletes, including Cam Newton, Drew Brees, Victor Cruz and Andrew McCutchen, to name a few.
The academic institution began its high school football program just three years ago. This season, the IMG Ascenders boast the most talented roster in the nation.

This isnt a high school football team its a football team with a High School.
Well said
+Tyler F (Pwnista) JAJAJAJAJAJAJA THIS COMMENT MADE MY DAY
+Tyler F (Pwnista) hahaha best comment yet and so true
Lol
+Typical White Kiwi With Much Pride what he means is that they focus more on the athlete part of big a student athletr
If this were a movie, IMG Academy would be the undefeated, villainous, super power team with all of the talent and state of-the-art facilities that gets beat in the last game of the season by the rag-tag, win less, underdog team that plays with a lot of heart for their first year coach who was thrust into the coaching position due to some unforeseen circumstance lol.
+Kuji Chagulia 110%
Lol well said
+Kuji Chagulia OMG that was great!!!!! It's funny because it's true. lmfao
+Kuji Chagulia Like Friday night lights. this is dallas carter team lol
So I was ruling for the villains? Shit! lol
Imagine paying 60k and you have to sit the bench.
No doubt Seth Pond - I'd be pissed as the parent. Heck I'm pissed as it's the same at our free public school for my boys.
Seth Pond 0:58 entire roster recruited by fbs schools
@KaosRekons freshman*
@@heartmomma6460 Well the Entire Roster is Recruited by D1 FBS Schools. So Most of these Players go D1. So It's not terrible being a Backup Player,
KaosRekons no JV. Two varsity teams
It's insane realizing these guys are the same age as me
Joe Michigan yep they look like they’re 20
Ron Burgundy cause of all the testosterone they’re body produces because they play football. More testosterone means there body becomes more masculine meaning more beards and more of a manlier appearance
@@gobackpls3029 all genetics my guy
Anthony Banuelos no just more testosterone present which isn’t really genetics cause everyone starts puberty randomly
Fuckthepurps you’re absolutely stupid it has to do with genetics, if you have too much testosterone it actually converts to estrogen making them have problems
This isn't high school football. High school football is kids coming together with teachers and learning the game they love, not some professionalized crap like this.
Ben Sylvester Yeah, but this also seemed like they were here just to play football, nor to go to highschool. I get your point, but you cant play football your whole life.
Don't worry, 121. These kids get a solid education. IMG grads have been accepted into all the Ivy League schools but MIT, and all the U-C schools but Cal Tech. Three of them are at West Point or Colorado Springs. I know they won't play forever, but they can build a great career in college while getting the education for later in life.
121' no it's not go back to cheerleading
Eric Van Zytveld mit is not an ivy and cal tech is not a uc school
Fat American MLS supporter that's middle school
"What makes our number one ranked quarterback special is he can throw the football"
😐😐😐
+Jared Rice LMAO
who woulda thought
GG
+Jared Rice Not many QBs are great at that or anything....
+Jared Rice well tim tebow couldn't throw for shit but he was considered "special." lol
Trying to make them seem badass with the dark visors😂😂
dankmex attack I know but it's illegal in football now
Visors are illegal in football unless you have eye problems that you need glasses for so they create visors that are prescribed also the only way you can use a tinted visor
Jonathan Andrus not anymore
Jonathan Andrus you can have a clear
crazy seeing this video 4 years ago and seeing where everyone is now. shea ended up and michigan, some american heritage kids ended up there too. ruiz just got drafted. crazy.
Brian burns got drafted
Patterson flamed out...just got cut by Chiefs and now no one wants him
Most these players didnt go very far not working now or nothing
"We alive now, we dangerous when we alive"
*fumbles next play*
it wasn't the next play. they made a touchdown bruh
+TrapLordGaming _ no fumble the next play
He was talking about defense
I not so sure about that they are 2nd in the nation
hahA
Real high school teams don't recruit players. Real talent is home grown.
Talent can come from anywhere...but yeah, real teams are grown, not tossed together in a fucking factory like this is.
It's a little different in Florida. Don't know where you are from but in my home town it's like 25 public schools and 12 private. My best friend I grew up with playing football. Had chemistry with on the filed. Stayed on the other end of the street had to go to a different high school.
tj baby its a academy**
Plus its getting ready for the next level
Lol
“A facility that also serves as an acedemic institution” that pretty much sums up what this is it’s a football school, the acedmics are secondary
Christian Joseph all these kids are good enough to get free college and go to the nfl
Like most D1/ colleges like Alabama 😅
That ain't no high school
Xhua Garcia: yes, it is, just not a typical high school.
Eric Van Zytveld bet
Xhua Garcia: ?? Come again?
Eric Van Zytveld bet
Xhua Garcia: Please reply comprehensibly. What do you mean 'bet'?
this team has zero excuse to lose a game lol
Exactly
they have 1 excuse and that is that their players lack the heart of a real team who hasn't been handed everything all their life
+Jon B They weren't even pissed or sad when they lost
+John Cockram are you crazy did you see them
Gorman
C'mon guys, cut them some slack. Obviously their nutritionist didn't give them the right soy latte's before the game. Can you imagine how frustrating that is?
Gold
+Preston Bass That is beautiful.
+Preston Bass hold this L but funny
+Dalton Lary shut the fuck up with that L bull shit
was up then bitch ass nigga u a fuckin goofy bihh
2015: Nah he doesn’t need to see this
2016: Still no
2017: Not now
2018: Never
2019: Now put it in his recommended
FBI got it in 2020
Dumbass
"They think we're a bunch of rich kids!" Well... yeah.
It doesn't matter how good your players are if they don't have chemistry they won't win. You can tell this team is filled with a bunch of I's not We's
My team is really good too but none of us have chemistry nobody likes anyone and we lose yet they all ask why we lose smh
Most talented team.
Especially o-line, Chemistry is key and taking responsibility is key
nah they're all leaders and they work together
Ian Joyce everybody cant be a leader it doesnt work like that
Shouldn't really count as a high school seeing how you pay 60k a year to go there...
The Impossible Challenge scholarship or financial aide bud
The Impossible Challenge high school where I live is 50k in high and 30k in elementary
Damn Im going to a really good private school and it's only 14k a year
lol screw that no high school is worth paying that
actually, no, not necessarily. My cousin, Cesar Ruiz, used to go to public school in New Jersey, but then they recruited him - giving him a very bright future. Now, he plays for Michigan U. and became a starter for them in his first year. Regardless, IMG gave him a scholarship, and it was all definitely worth it when it came down to what it promised him. Though I know where you're mindset is coming from and I get your point, these are just a bunch of kids trying to make their dreams come true...and IMG, they aren't a bunch of pricks, some of these kids started from nothing and football is their only chance. I know this was longer than it needed, but these comments are just filled with hate towards kids trying to make their dreams come true, which just isn't right.
The problem with schools like this is you recruit the best players and get them but the other talented players who aren’t as good as the top guys won’t get enough film to get a power 5 scholarship offer they deserve
Almost everyone on the roster gets a d1 scholarship
Mr Mackey exactly , idk what that guy is talking about
Featured players and coaches in the video today:
-Shea Patterson: Signed to Ole Miss, transferred to Michigan, bust
-Cesar Ruiz: Committed to Michigan, rafted in the 1st round by the Saints
-Isaac Nauta: Committed to Georgia, drafted in the 7th round by the Lions
-Rahshaun Smith: Committed to Clemson and won the 2018 National Championship, Grad transfer to Maryland
-Coach Donnie Abraham: Most recently the DBs coach for the Orlando Alliance of the AAF
-Director Steve Walsh: QBs coach to the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the CFL
-Coach Ernie Logan: Still the DL coach for IMG, has had internships with the Dolphins, Patriots, and the Browns
-Shavar Manuel: Originally committed to Florida, he decommitted and committed to FSU. He was not academically eligible to enroll at FSU, so he committed to Fort Scott CC, then transferred to Iowa Central CC. He never played a snap at FSU. In the summer of 2019, he was arrested on charges of soliciting a prostitute. (He became a pimp, you can't make this shit up).
Head Coach Kevin Wright: Hired as Tight Ends coach at Indiana University
-Savion Smith: Played freshman year at LSU, transferred to Mississippi Gulf Coast CC, then landed at Alabama where he finished his college career. He wasn't drafted, but signed as a UDFA by the Jaguars.
-Drake Davis: Played two seasons at LSU. He was poised to have a breakout season in 2018, but after a string of domestic assaults and a child pornography charge, he was arrested and removed from the team. He was released on a 20k bond and enrolled at Southern University. As of right now, he has no affiliation with the football program
-Brian Burns (American Heritage DB): Committed to FSU where he played 3 years. He was drafted in the 1st round of the 2019 NFL draft by the Panthers
-Nick Eubanks (American heritage player; interception at 11:19): Commited to Michigan where he played TE, primarily played a back up roll
Jorgen so most were busts
Will Brown yup
They wake up at 9am he said he is tired... Wtf i wake up at 6 to go to highschool... They are spoiled rich kids
He said he is "a little tired"
Pretty sure everyone is a little tired when they wake up
+Oak Shadow lol not at 9
My boy they get offer to goto that school
Because he would have spent his days with intense training, making his body and self tired, unlike ur fat ass
Tom he doesn't look in shape to me lol
This is practically cheating it is not really a highschool more of a company
cade taylor it’s basically a Scouting firm colleges and teams use for talent
cade taylor they only play the good teams
Hey if the kids want to it, let them do it. If I had this kind of opportunity with soccer when I was in HS I’d be ALL over it trying to get in. Some HS don’t care at all about their sports team, and don’t allocate any funds to help their students. To them, it’s just an extracurricular activity. To us it’s a lifestyle. Sports are our life. There is nothing wrong with having a school that helps us live this lifestyle and helps us progress as players. I only think it’s wrong that the price is so high, and that they do the recruiting. But hey, if you’re really good enough then you’ll get a scholarship and get a full ride. And if you aren’t good enough to get a scholarship, then maybe you aren’t good enough to even be on that kind of team.
Alex Cruz you have to pay 60k a year. That’s more expensive than some of the best UNIVERSITIES out there
It’s completely unfair in every way. They only have 3 classes a day, and practice more than they actually sit in a classroom and learn
And they only recruit the best. It’s just throwing the best players in the US in one big building and giving them a bunch of expensive gear to use
Asad Awawdeh read my comment again. I don’t think you read it all, otherwise you wouldn’t have typed that.
4:34 he's spitting everywhere
Grizzly Gaming tthhammy tthprinkler
My friend goes here and plays football. He's gotten full ride offers to Clemson and Alabama, etc. I've been in their locker room and it is literally better than an NFL locker room I've ever seen.
Thats why I love the game of football. you can have all the talent in the world, but football is a absolute team sport....
This isn't what high school football is about.
I fucking agree with you.
Adam Beauvais well its not about high school football because they're training for pro level, just high school age
@@Byefel38 SO anybody can go to pros without this program, well if they wanted to become professional football player.
Adam Beauvais did I say they cant become pro at other schools? Im just saying that of course this isnt what high school football is about because they dont think of this as high school football, they're going to this high tech school with NFL coaches and shit to train and play with a team that also has the same ambitions of going pro
it's a mockery of HS athletics. Plain and simple. They recruit the best players from all over the country and still have the audacity to call it a a HS program. It's advanced college prep w/o the academics. The kids are there only for the athletics. I doubt any even know what or where a classroom is. IMG is much like the HS basketball Clearinghouses that have popped up across the country for no reason but to train athletes for college, except with a lot more funding. The school IMG plays in this video, American Heritage, is another HS football Clearinghouse. Bishop Gorman in Nevada is another example. I would love to know how they are able to pass themselves off as high schools.
It's no HS at all. I'll definitely give you that. However, it is a PROGRAM. maybe that's what you're trying to say and I read it differently.
You go to IMG to become pro 🤷🏻♂️
IMG has some of the best academics in the country...
Ok
@@itsmealex8959 We're talking about the football players. It's obvious that they get free passes academically and special treatment over other students.
they lost to MATER DEI #westcoastbestcoast
Mater Dei is a private school that recruits too.
yeah, mater dei is insane though. They also recruit like crazy, we play them
That's not FUCKING FAIR. They have college level everything and we barely have a weight room
+Sebastien Harmon Pretty much
Sebastien Harmon Faxxx
Hey relax they are not gods. They lose too . Think Rocky vs Drago. High tech faculties , top trainers and steroids and still lost against pure heart
Alejandro Sanchez but that's a movie 😂
Quin we only got our first weight room last year and we were ranked in top 10 last year... also, our uniforms are cooler (purple + black is sick)
It's 2016 haven't heard or any of these fools play.
david yen most are freshman in college wait a couple years
edwin asas awesome I will have money on these boys!
Patterson just started for Ole Miss last week and Nauta is having a successful freshman year at Georgia.
The football program only started 8 years ago
Savion smith Alabama's corner
4:33 this guy looks like he already wearing shoulder pads
@Oh Yeah yeah He giving them a whole shower
10:10 Brian Burns is now a solid DE in the NFL for the Panthers. He was picked in the 1st round of the 2019 NFL draft.
Fuck this over hype shit. Wait until they're in college with the poor kid that didn't have anything.... They are going to find out what guts is, they're going to find out what hard work means, they're going to know the difference between a paved road and making it through the jungle to get to the game. You're good when you excel and you're not supposed to, not when you have everything in your favor.
amen
+Shamao Yang Someone's bitter....
ill like to see u on tv
look up bo from img
Ray Rod later
Bunch of spoiled and selfish rich kids. IMG costs $70K a year to attend, and youre telling me that being spoiled rich kids is just a perception? Smh
If you're good at football they'll give you a scholarship
Tyler Roberts no scholarships there. i had a friend who played baseball at img and they offer no scholarshipa
+Jonathan Doyle yes they do give scholarships
they are a high school how do the offer scholarship
Jonathan Doyle it's because there parents have a good career
signs of a great coach. no shouty sweary bullshit after the loss, he handled that perfectly to make it positive criticism. good stuff.
Img coaches are horrible, it’s all talent
Of course it's in Florida
Avery Bradley’s Son What do you mean by that
Lol was that supposed to be a compliment? Cause we're serious about our HS football here...
+Micah Johnson Florida boasts having a great majority of the best, most elite high school football athletes, second only to Texas.
Avery Bradley’s Son yo stfu florida is were footballs at
Ball Is Life no texas is nothing to florida .......florida has the most nfl players the best high schools and more wtf does texas have....youth football that the kids that play are probily going to be injired by 2 years
"school" is a term used loosely in this case. This is just a HS fball farm team
agreeed!
+Al Hi Its an academy for helping develop top level athletes and ensure they can succeed academically, they've been teaching since before the football team was started a few years ago
+Mike Hunt ok bud...
Farm team? Theyre locker room costs more than your town, the reason they get that gear and facilities is bevause these kids have earned it
+Jeff Jeffrey you are an idiot.
This is a academy you have to basically a scholarship to go there. That's why they are so good.
Big Poppy you don't have to have a scholarship to go here you just go TBH I'm from Bradenton an most just go an sign up they just say you can't do anything else with other night school like 6A manatee high, south east high bay shore high, lake wood ranch , braden river etc...
Big Poppy u basically do get a scholarship or pay a shit load of money to get in
one year there is $68,500.
FUCKING $68,500 FOR A YEAR
AT A HIGHSCHOOL
My question is when do they have the time to be a kid.
they don't have scholarships. wym
Samia Hammond Yes they do.
I’ll never forget that hs football feeling. Everybody needs to enjoy it while it lasts!
I went to see Michigan pratice there when they came down, the school literally looks like a college campus, it's a phenomenal campus
aaaannd they almost lost to a public school in corona centennial $
ik centennial is good i play for rancho cucamonga this school aint as good as they sound
Centennial is a top-10 ranked school. It's not about being public or private. It's about how good you are. Centennial is VERY good.
My school beat Centennial first game of the season. if its the centennial im thinking of
Eric Van Zytveld they are gonna win state this year

Randy Santos I live near that school
De la Salle New Orleans > that other de la Salle
Guy says there the best team in the country. They only scored 1 touchdown the whole game
They are acrually they recruit players nationwide
I played big time High School football in Texas where Friday Night Lights are a sacred part of our culture... We played in front of thousands sometimes tens of thousands every Friday... The marching bands were big enough to stretch the full length of the field when they would line up before half time...The drum lines would get you so fired up... Our pep rally’s had local radio and tv stations at them... when you were an incoming freshman getting that letterman jacket meant everything... Then once you got it Filling it up with your award and playoff patches became everything... By the time you were a senior if your letterman had so many patches it looked like you had done a couple tours in Iraq you felt like you had accomplished something... Cross town and district rivalries were absolutely real.... ... We played the #1 team in the nation all 3 years I was on varsity... we played in the cowboys stadium for the playoffs.. our seasons start in the doh days of August and if your lucky to make a deep playoff run your playing past thanks giving... our busses To the games got police escorts... the community put out signs for us so you see them on the drive to the stadium...And I could keep going and going All night about how And why high school football is so special to us here in TX.. so seeing this bullshit school recruit players then cherry pick their schedule makes me sick... They completely ruin what makes high school ball great... And I promise u this much they would get waxed by the elite programs here... looks like they playing Duncanville here soon... They’re gonna be at what used to be the ballpark the Texas Rangers played at... Normal attendance non Covid years is over 20k for a Duncanville game this being a special game if it had been a normal year easily could of had 30-40k in attendance which would be damn near a sellout... I don’t care how many stars your ranked I guarantee these kids haven’t played in a stadium with 20-30 thousand people yelling, cowbells ringing, the 400 person band blaring... it’s so loud you can’t hear anything.. that’s high school football not this slimey pay to play school that pimps kids away from a normal highschool experience...
Cannot speak for others but J J McCarthy went there and he is getting a solid start at Michigan. I don’t see how a program like this cannot offer some benefits to kids who have their minds set on going pro.
Damn this isn’t even a high school
they should play bishop gorman
or St. John Bosco or De La Salle
that would be a good game I got the chance to play against them this year
+Mickey Rodriguez really haha. that must have been a hard game.
+Luke Bowerman ahah yes very hard game but fun the atmosphere their is awesome took hard L but definitely a fun game
If they can't beat american heritage there is no way in hell they would beat bishop gorman. No disrespect to heritage who is really good but if they say that EVERY single player on the roster is getting D1 looks, then every game that they played this year should have been a blowout, but some were very close, and they even lost one
i dont know about you but in washington it is illegal to recruit for high school football teams
public, not private
Michael Springer most private schools dont even recruit like i dont believe east side catholic recruits and they are the state champs also private but could be wrong
Michael Springer eastside recruits BIG TIME
Michael Springer you can't recruit for private either
Well I'm pretty sure archbishop Murphy does
Shae plays for Michigan. He's damn good. Impressive but I would like to see these boys stay as homegrown talent vs recruiting. It helps the entire team & school build confidence, satisfaction & teamwork.
Respect this team cause they show the truth of win and loss and how the fight really is
It's unfair because on my towns hs football team there was a running back who averaged over 100 yards and a td a game and sometimes got around 200 yards but was only recruited to a division 2 or 3 college because our town didn't get as much attention as these d1 teams who got every opportunity
Duke Man then his highlights were shit
Duke Man and you probably played shit teams
But can they beat the East Dillon Lions??
texas forever !
Jared Ortega can they beat Hoover high school?
They trounced Grayson.
Naww not even close
Eric Van Zytveld lol my schools top rival is grayson
They are the best in the nation but that's because they're private. In Idaho, we've got some decent players and a private school here is always winning state championships, hard to compete with private schools, but as far as public schools go, Texas and California have the majority of the powerhouses
All the best schools in the country r private lmao this ain't even a private school it's a program really
Im hyped now🙏💪💪💪
Bro gtfo... They were hyping that shit up like it was the state title... IT DODNT EVEN COUNT! It was preseason tf?
Malek Mustafa ur supposed to play like it's a championship game every game
but they were talking about how they were "their biggest rivals" and how important that game was
It all matters, every game, every practice, every scrimmage, EVERYTHING, because the thing about them is that they ALWAYS go 110% while doing everything, all of these haters are just jealous- find something better to do than pick on aspiring teenagers who are doing all they can for their futures.
IMG, Bishop Gorman whatever, don't care every one of those teams are privileged, top education, top athletic facilities.. Everything is handed to them on a plate.. While you have other schools still in the rural areas small run down schools, tracks with rocks on it and always floods. field is straight dead grass and dirt.. Muddy as hell with holes when raining. Weights are moldy, rusted ,recycled from other high schools and donations.. Those are the schools that builds real toughness, feeds the hunger to take down these top schools..
Where about to take them on this thursday
You just explained my school and team
Watching this in 2019 Shea Patterson throwing game losing pick to his future tight end from Michigan
I am a high school football fanatic. My nephews started playing and going to their games got me hooked. I love small town smash mouth football. Offense that's based on a 3 yard run. Gang tackling. Central valley California small town football. Ripon or Escalon Friday night lights. Or catch a game at Dunleavy field in Sonora between 100 year rivals Oakdale v Sonora. One of the top 10 places to watch a high school football game.
But can they read ?
It's an academy and the academics have to be good.
Yes they can read..Though it's at the 4th grade level..
Come play a Texas power house

Probably some amazing off the books cash flow happening there.
That's what happens when you try and stack the odds so high in your favor. You win a little less than anticipated, because all of that talent still has to find rhythm no matter how good they are.
they also have an amazing lacrosse team
bprendy0 9 IDIOT
bprendy0 9 tell me one Long Island public that can beat IMG? ( I live in LI lol)
Img lacrosse is a team of hyper recruited players picked from across the country. Every single one of their players is the best of the best. There is no way they would lose to any normal public school in America, much less LI.
facts
bprendy0 9 bruh Long Island (syosset, farmingdale, port Washington, ward melville) would kill them
my question is how the fuck they lose with 13 4 star recruits and five 5 star recruits
Don't play as a "Team", playing for themselves and stats
“That’s cute”-Mater Dei & St. John Bosco

I thought tinted visors were illegal in high school football, 😑
That's what I thought
They aren't illegal in highschool football, but they are ruled dangerous for the player
+Walter Sosa I think it depends on the high school football league rules. In Virginia, where I live, our league doesn't allow tinted visors.
+Walter Sosa its only illegal in games, not practice
You need to have receipts and show them to the ref saying you can use them every day
At least that's how I use mine

This team is like one my flag football team played ( I want to play tackle but my parents are worried about concussions) and they had Phillip Rivers son, Marvin Jones Jr’s son and Eric Weddles son. They got NFL stars coaching them. It’s exactly like IMG, a cheat code
How do they have so much money for these great facilities and such?
They pay 60k a year so...

Love the ending
Around my area we have Elder, Colrain, Louisville Trinity, St. Xavier KY and OH and we were ranked top 5 when I played high school football for Boone County Rebels in Florence KY. That's when I was backup running back to Shaun Alexander then after he left I took over the RB. We beat some teams 90-13, 92-20 and 86-3.
Boone County Rebels went 1-10 in 2016 getting outscored on average 37-14. Since the 2011 season the Rebels have only won 3 games and had 2 winless seasons. When did they pull off 85-pt wins?
Eric Van Zytveld he probably played in the 90's or something a really exciting blow-out team to watch would be Aledo
play Mater Dei, Long Beach Poly, ORANGE Lutheran, Any southern California school

Ricky from Boyz in the hood is way better than all these chumps lol. R.I.P Ricky Baker 1991-1991
Can't wait to see Shea at Ole Miss next year. I haven't played football since sophomore year of highschool but I'm attempting to walk on as running back next year. Hotty Toddy!
ImVaughn lollllllllll that'll be funny
ImVaughn nice
Good luck man
Thanks all. It's definitely going to be tough. I've lost a lot of mass since I last played. I'm sitting at 150 right now but I'm working on bulking up. My 40 yard dash is sitting at a 4.5 right now so I'm going to work on that as well
fast
Damn id love to go here, seems like the train there heart out, and id be willing to rip my own just to be there training, id run until i callapsed, then get up and do it again, until i cant even get up, and i have before
Beautiful campus
I see a lot of comments where people discredit these young athletes as if they had a "paved road" and didn't have to work to be where they are. There is with out a doubt quite a bit of luck involved, to be a great athlete. There is so much we can't control in our lives, like the genetics we are born with or the environment that we grow up in ( to a certain extent) that could impact a young athletes chance at being great. There is no doubt that I had often thought " man if only my dad had bred my to be an athlete like some of those parents" or I blamed my genetics for my lack of sports success. Reality is you do what you can with the cards you are dealt. I don't discredit any of these kids for making the most out of a very good situation. I see tons of physically blessed individuals fail in school, go to prison and even just achieve simple mediocrity in life.My point is, in its own unique way, life hits all of us and it hits hard. There is no doubt that life hits some harder than others, but I won't discredit a kid for being dealt a great hand and making the most out of it. You all sound bitter and jealous. Kind of pathetic.
+Robert Patton I agree completely.. I still don't like the idea of IMG though..
I don't think anyone likes the idea of it, I don't really either. I just don't see why the people commenting are acting like these kids don't deserve to be where they are at though. Some more than others for sure, but they are obviously doing something right.
Robert Patton No doubt about that.. These kids worked very hard to be where they are at.
Yeah, I see what you're saying. I'm not a fan of a school where 14-18 year olds go where football is the only thing in their life. I'm from a small D5 school and I thought some of the kids here were bad. I get what you're saying too about these kids having natural talent, since they already had to be very good by the time they got into high school; four years of training can't make you go from mediocre to one of the best in the country. I just don't understand how kids are ranked #1 or #2 in the nation and getting multiple D1 college offers at age 17, only going into their senior year in high school.
Josh Kaplinger I mean when else would they get offers...
that football coach reminds me of a jason garrett. yeah he knows the game of football but he doesn't look like a coach players would go to war for. No passion in his words. No real drive in how he carries himself. I could never play for a guy like that and feel motivated to put my body on the line to win games.
Do Coventry oakers next
2 years later i havent heard any of these names in college football
IMG vs Bishop Gorman MAKE IT HAPPEN
Donald TRUMP #illsueyoblock #brokeniggas Fr
Bishop would smoke this team out
They got daddies money, coachin, pretty uniforms, nice stuff, good tangibilities but NO HEART!!!
you don't know what you say
They had to grind for that just to get there. IMG doesn't offer those 30k+ scholarships to just any scrubs. These guys in the video don't have money to spend on high school like that. These aren't the rich private school kids that have to pay.
its so easy for them, while other high schools struggling on equipment and on players
They played a nearby city called hoover that game was plackin
When you can recruit from all over the nation you can have teams like this....nothing impressive about this
Allen High School is the best won 3 straight state finals and about to make it 4, haven't lost i nearly 4 years, we are actually ranked #2 in the nation, its a 6-A school, probs would a smashed the shit outta that team
Edit: Rank 1-5 depending on what site rankings you view but for sure top 5
No one cares
Lol Allen is a good team but try winning 5 straight state championships like lake travis
+Connor Wilkinson lol their on their way to doing that
Try winning 5 straight state championships as a public school in central Illinois, 4A team. Rochester Rockets
My schools weight room had 4 benches 4 squat racks and a dirt track with holes everywhere.
Looks like Bleacher Report needs to do a special on American Heritage
