High school football: The case for The Oklahoman's Super 30 No. 1

The 6-foot-3, 240-pound Douglass junior dribbled a few times, between his legs twice, then drove hard to his right, going past a much skinnier defender into the lane, where he floated in a soft left-handed layup.

A little while later, he posted up against a defender, fought through a double-team and scored again.

His basketball skills mirror his football abilities. He has the speed and agility to beat you, or the strength and toughness to overpower you.

His combination of size, speed and power have caught the attention of football coaches across the country. His scholarship offer list literally ranges from coast to coast, starting with OU and OSU to Texas A&M, USC, Notre Dame, LSU, Clemson and a dozen more in between.

Meanwhile, Alabama and Florida are still in pursuit, though offers haven't come yet.

If you're pointing to the differences between elite SEC programs and the rest of the country, it starts on the line. The top teams in the SEC only go after defensive linemen they think can dominate at the top level. Guys who can go play in the NFL.

Clark doesn't only deserve to be the state's top-rated prospect. He'll be one of the top 100 recruits in the country.

Ryan Aber: The case for Edmond Santa Fe QB Justice Hansen

A compelling argument can be made for each of the top three in the Super 30 to be No. 1.

The best case, though, belongs to Santa Fe quarterback Justice Hansen.

First, it's about position. An elite-level quarterback is tough to lure since most teams will bring in just one quarterback every year, if that. Oklahoma State didn't sign a quarterback this year.
