You know whats funny? Coop you can probably back me up on this one. WOS has always been a monster linebacker producing school. The past few years, we havent had any. As a mater of fact, I think '00s Gayron Allen was the last. The 3A is starting to show. Just my opinion. Its seems like we are getting smaller and smaller. I played with two of the monsters(Roy Locks and Charles Sias).

[KFDM COOP]

Your right.

The Johnson kid from Nederland is going to be something else this season.

The Johnson kid from Nederland is going to be something else this season.

Got any career stats on him? Whats his size? D1?

[KFDM COOP]

Last i heard there were a few D1's looking at him.

[Critter]

I have also noticed the sizes of all of our local schools LB's But I think they are getting a lot quicker IMO Maybe Lumberton has some big LB's this year, they were pretty good in Pop Warner :wink: :wink: Just joking

[raider09]

WE have a couple of LB's that can play

[KFDM COOP]

Garza is real good. Is he one of the ones you were talking about?

[Gtj007]

I'm not sure that Johnson will even play LB for Nederland this year. He played DE all of last year and from what I'm hearing he will play there again this year. Maybe he is projected as a LB in college??

Here is a link for him:

I don't think it's so much of a lack of talent, but a sign of Coach Thompson's absence from the program for a few years and a statement of the quality of coaches we had replace him. Look at it this way, WOS has had its fair share of students get scholarships in the past few years, but mostly at positions where they've had solid coaching (Toby at WR coach, for example). The off-season program is just now getting back to where it was, and we're seeing bigger, faster, and stronger linemen -- something we haven't had in a number of years. If they can do their job, the LBs will be better able to do thier jobs. I really think this year, you'll see WOS LBs have a strong season, and it's only going to get better.

on rivals he has video and a newer story on scout.com with some updated schools listed and even a early offer ( http://scout.scout.com/a.z?s=378&p=8&c=1&nid=2688324 he runs in the 4.6 tho) and for us he plays DE/LB but recruited as a LB

[jdawg03]

Johnson must be like a DeMarcus Ware type

[KFDM COOP]

I saw Johnson last year twice and he looked great.

[Guest Penny]

Johnson will be used in several different ways this year. He will stand up and run to the ball at the bandit position and play his pass rushing DE position as well. He has legit D1 ability and is already being recruited pretty heavily.

[Guest GoStangs]

I saw him (Johnson) last year when NED played WOS and thought he was probably the best defensive player on the Bulldog team. He certainly has a lot of potential, and if he's improved any from last year, he's going to be one of the best in the area, regardless of position.

[Guest Penny]

I saw him the other day, he's probably put on about 10 pounds. Thing about Johnson is he's extremely long with his wing span, makes him near impossible to block.

[KFDM COOP]

Like GS said he was very impressive last year, look for a bigger year from him this year.

[godogs]

actually penny he's put on way more then 10lbs..last yr he was listed as 185lbs..on rivals and scout.com he's now 220..if im doin the math correct, thats 35lbs..and with 4.6 speed and natural skills...opposing teams better look for a way to control this guy

[bob_sakamano]

Paul Trammell is going to be a junior. He tore his acl in the first district game last year against West Hardin. He should have a great couple of years ahead of him.

Trammell was credited with 45 tackles in 2005 as a Sophomore. Those 45 tackles were accrued in less than 3 games.
