im telling you guys #13 from Nashville is the best around hands down...he does run a 3.8 cuz i seen it with my own two eyes and counted it on my own fingers the kid can run. heck hes so fast every now and then he'll be standin there next to the return man waitin for the ball to come down. now i know that some of ya'll like to get on here and be funny but i'll be the one laughin when he is playin for the #1 team in the country next year, and trust me he will start as a true freshman .

Henry Co has a great long snapper. He was also their QB. He was not very good at that position but a great snapper. His uncle was an allAmerican at Auburn and played 10years in the pros long snapping. He was the long snapper for the Baltimore Ravens when they won the superbowl. He is little but I think he is going to walk on at Ole Miss and they are excited to have him.

I agree with bulldawg#2....I believe #2 Jesse Alexander is one of the best in the state....Go Dawgs!!! Good Luck this week...

[hsfball]

I heard that this #13 has experienced a similar situation as the little boy in the timeless cinematic masterpiece "Rookie of the Year." In his pre-teen years he would often take daily strolls through the park. One day a terrible man threw his banana peel on the ground. Without seeing it, #13 slipped and violently fell backwards landing on both of his elbows. Because of the way he fell it causes him to flinch violently with his arms in a throwing motion between his legs. The doctors couldn't explain it. All they could say was "you will have to learn to deal with it, son." Well, a few years passed and he joined a local high school football team and here we are now. He is looking to go straight to a D1 school, probably the national champion. So maybe this .002 second ball to punter snap isn't so outrageous. As for his speed, I guess he gets it from his dad or something. It's great that in all of the controversy in today's high school sports there are still touching stories like that of Bryan Rankenship.

We are all so proud of Bryan. That accident couldn't have worked for a better person. However all of the credit can't be given to fate. Bryan is one of the hardest workers I have ever met. His outstanding speed can be attributed to many hours of running. His story for speed is similar to that of Forest Gump. When Bryan was in the 8th grade he caught a ball and turned to run. He realized he wasnt fast, but if he didnt run he would get hurt by one of the larger players. After that, Bryan just kept running. Every day he ran. He ran and ran and ran until he became faster than his friends. But that wasnt good enough for Bryan. Bryan decided he wanted to be faster than all other high school players. He knew that with his gifted elbows he could play college football, but he also knew that if he was the fastest out there he could play for a team in a national championship. So thank you, Bryan, for all of the inspiration that you have blessed us with. Your work has finally payed off.

#5 of Hardin County is definitely one of the best longsnappers in West Tennessee. It seems like every snap is right at the punter's waist and quick. I haven't seen him have a bad snap even in practice. He also plays both ways at SE and OLB.

I'm afraid i need to see this Bryan Rankenship to believe in this truly inspiring story. Come to think of it, it almost reminds me of a young man that was in the paper for his hard work and dedication to his team and school, I believe his number was 77.
