Message: [QUOTE="Upstate, post: 45616, member: 48"] You're right, I have forgotten a few, but it isn't necessarily often that these kids come about. My basic point was that it isn't a real hotbed for impactful college players. I mean, I watched Kimmel play against Walton (my alma mater) and he didn't stand out at all (other than in basketball). A few more to add to the list, Sean Kelly, an '05 Walton grad was supposedly visited by Paterno. Another Walton grad, Kirk Fletcher, was (according to the local gossip) offered by SU his sophomore year after being named Defensive POTG in the 2003 State championship game vs. Matt Berstein (Edgemont), who went on to play FB at Wisconsin. Fletcher didn't play his senior year - and just wanted to work on the farm. It was Kirk, the best LB in all of Section 4, vs. Mike Hart in the first round out of the section...or atleast, it would have been had Walton gotten past a Lansing team they had beaten by 40 earlier in the year. :bang: [/QUOTE]
