you wont convince me that there was 4 Linebackers better than Sam Taylor in 4A.
I do have an issue with the highest scoring and most efficient offense in the state only having 1 person on that side of the ball, but if im being honest, its hard to replace anyone on that list on offense.

So looking at the Honorable Mention list, it looks like the Lafayette area sportswriter didn’t even nominate LCA LB Sam Taylor and his 148 tackles and multiple defensive TDs. Or DB Chris Helaire who had 6 interceptions. Or anyone on the offensive side of the ball from LCA other than Ju’Juan Johnson.
And I wrong about the HM list being the kids who were nominated by their local guy?

I'm definitely surprised that Sam Taylor, Jalen Noel and T.J. Marzell weren't nominated for all-state. I'm not saying any of them would definitely make the first team, but they all have a case for it.
Also, having seen LCA vs. STM twice this year (and LCA play a third time), it's hard for me to justify STM having two LBs on the first team and Sam Taylor not even being nominated. I think I would take Taylor over the two STM LBs personally.

I can’t help but wonder how this would look if Neville, and More importantly, Westgate were allowed to play against the other 4A teams?
Westgate not having a single player on the 4A all state team is crazy.
Just weird!

Westgate not having a single player on the 4A all state team is crazy. Just weird! Care to elaborate? Westgate played 12 games. Half of them (6) against 4A teams. They played two games against 3A teams, one against a 2A team and 3 against 5A teams. Neville played 10 games. Six of 10 against 4A teams (one of which had 1A enrollment), one against a 2A team, and 2 against 5A teams.

Just weird! if Jaboree played the whole season he would 100% be on this list, but other than that, i personally dont think anyone outside of Tavias stuck out to me, and thats a tough position to get in at over the names already on this list.

I’m covering LCA boys this morning at the Sunkist Shootout. Trae Grogan’s recruitment is a mystery. Should have some big offers.

He has had a number of teams express interest, just not triggers pulled. I would suspect when triggers do begin to be pulled it will be more than a couple offers coming in. Kid is very good

I think I would take Taylor over the two STM LBs personally. well apparently according to STM stats, Hernandez has 180+ tackles.... and brody had 150+..... I'm going to slam the doubt button on those.
