Camden County is the early favorite to be the state’s high school to have the most seniors sign with major colleges later this year.
The Kingsland school has six players who have already been offered, including wide receiver DeAngelo Smith, who has committed to South Carolina. The other five are cornerback Mike Green (offers from East Carolina, Indiana, Illinois, Middle Tennessee St., Memphis), defensive end Ryan Attaway (Memphis, MTSU), fullback Marquevious Myers (Memphis, MTSU), linebacker Justin Orr (Memphis) and safety Robert Williams (Toledo, Ball State).
“Overall, we’ve got about 10 kids who have been offered by somebody, but not all them by [major colleges],” Camden coach Jeff Herron said. “It’s a strange year. Every college that came through here looking at one of our players ended up liking another one better.”
How does Herron feel about all the college attention for his players?
“It’s a good thing. It doesn’t help you win any football games, but it’s good for your kids. It just shows they’ve been doing the right things to put themselves in position to get the [college offers]. We’re proud of them all.”
Roswell led the state last year with four players signing with major colleges, while another three turned down big schools to sign at the I-AA level, including cornerback LaVelle Larry, who picked Georgia Southern over Louisville on signing day.
