To continue with this weeks topic of dominant high school programs I will head a little north to South Carolina. This state has always done well to produce elite players on a consistent basis. One of the schools that does this well is Byrnes high school in Duncan, South Carolina. Byrnes won 4 consecutive state titles from 2002-2005, a very impressive feat in any state.
In order to win on such a consistent basis it takes not only a great program, but great players. This year is an especially great year having 7 three star or higher players on the roster including the sensational running back Marcus Lattimore (a 5 star recruit). I am sure some Clemson fans remember Willy Korn and how highly recruited he was coming out of high school.
Byrnes has so much success that issues arise come All-Star selection when they clearly have the most talented roster despite having restrictions on how many players from each team can be represented in an All Star game (topic discussed on: http://obsrecruiting.blogspot.com/).
This post is more about the successful platform that a talented and well coached program allows young men to make from high school to college. Byrnes, for their first game, hosted a GA school and dominated. All of the 8 players being heavily recruited will make the successful jump.
