JCM---Al Wilson, Might remember him as the heart and soul of the 1998 Tennessee Volunteer National Championship team, now with the Denver Broncos.

 

Also, ED "Too Tall" Jones came from Merry High before Jackson High and Merry high merged. Played basketball and not football in High School, but went on to play college football and be the #1 pick in the NFL draft.

 

There have been others, but these are the top 2 that come to mind.

Those were good players, but nowhere near the best. The Brian Davis days had better stock.

I think you will find that those 3 were more than good players. No telling how good Locke could have been if he didnt have that catastrophe he calls a father. Taron Henry is about to do big things at Middle Tennessee, he has a pretty good spring game I believe

The 1994 team had several people sign D-I scholarships:

Alvin Duke--Vanderbilt

David Coppens--Vanderbilt

Antron Peebles--Tennessee

Gerald Griffin--Tennessee

Eric Locke--Alabama, Tennessee

Fernando Bryant--Alabama.....now with the Detroit Lions

 

Other colleges:

Corey Carney--Samford

Larry Flloyd--Tennessee State

Todd Harris--Cumberland

Jason Staple--Tennessee Tech

William Henry--Rhodes

Reggie Smith--Tennessee Tech

 

As anyone can see, the 15-0, state champion, 1994 Riverdale team was stacked full of talent.
