<p>This weekend I was able to link up with my old colleague and friend, the one-man industry himself <a href="https://twitter.com/AlPopsFootball">Al Pops</a>. Being, what I consider at least, the nation's savant of identifying middle school football talent, Pops did not disappoint. At first glance, here are some of the event's eye-catching talent that I witnessed at warm up. For certain, parochial schools in the area will be clamoring to recruit this talented bunch.</p>
