Continue ReadingThis month, South Carolina’s coaches and even another outlet or two will release their versions of the All-State football teams.
None of them will be as involved as this one.
Prep Red Zone scouts Brandon Stockdale, Ian Guerin, Chris Dearing and Jed Blackwell have spent the 2021 season covering games galore. They simultaneously spent the five-week playoff window compiling the inaugural Prep Red Zone South Carolina Fab 50.
This list is the best of the best – from kicker to quarterback, offensive line to secondary. Out of the thousands of high school football players in the Palmetto State, we cut it to the top 50. That’s it. Just 50.
No stone was left unturned to get to that ultra-selective number.
The scouts analyzed production, competition level, fulfillment of expectations and the all-important eye test. Yes, they’ve seen them all – often more than once or twice. When that wasn’t enough, the scouts crushed plenty of film.
The Fab 50 kicks off with the selections for All-State Defense and Special Teams.
