All decade team (2007-2016)
- Thread starter JFelice
- Start date
If Ty Isaacs not on the team you might as well not bother having one.
So here's what I could come up with, some guys I have bias on (fond memories).
QB- John Whitelaw Hinsdale Central (just edged out O'Toole do to his running ability)
RB- Matt Perez Maine South
RB- Ty Isaac JCA
WR- Kyle Prater Proviso West
WR- Jordan Westerkamp Montini
WR- Laquon Treadwell Crete-Monee
TE- Nic Weishar Marist
LT- Ethan Pocic Lemont
LG- Chris Watt Glenbard West
C- Brian Allen Hinsdale Central
RG- Trevor Ruhland Cary Grove
RT- Kevin Jarvis Maine South
DE- Darius Fleming St Rita
DT- Bruce Gaston St Rita
DT- Steven Richardson Mr Carmel
DE- Terry Beckner East St Louis
LB- Nyles Morgan Crete Monee
LB- Tuf Borland Bolingbrook
LB- Clifton Garrett Plainfield South
CB- Justin Jackson Glenbard North (had to get him out there somewhere)
CB- Matthew Harris Lyons Township
FS- Terry Hawthorne East St Louis
SS- Julian Love Nazareth
K- Jake Elliot Lyons Township
P- Austin Seibert Belleville West
LS- Scott Daly Downers Grove South
Really is a struggle to leave some RB's and WR's off. Some ridiculous run first QB's too.

At LS, you're really confusing me here,
John Shannon Loyola #1 LS in the country 2016
Or
Scott Daley DGS #1 LS in the country 2012
????????
I combined them! Hah I was thinking about both of them put Shannon first then chose to go with Daly in my mind and never deleted Shannon. Either choice is a good one.
What about Plainfield Norths Kapri Bibbs? Currently in the NFL as the number two back for the Broncos. NCAA record for rushing touchdowns in a season (tied with Montee Ball and Keenan Reynolds). Ran for 519 yards and seven TD's against Oswego as a senior. I know Isaac and Perez were good, but I think Bibbs would get my nod.
I suck at OL

Man another RB that would be tough to turn down. I don't know where he slots in there for me personally. I already feel like I'm missing on Brodner, Akui, Ferguson, Jackson but Bibbs certainly deserves consideration too. No wrong answer there.
He was an absolute beast in high school, just "too short" for the major programs. Looks like they missed out.
Was one of those Allens the OL from king that's with the chiefs? If not he should be there.
QB - Lunt
RB - Bibbs, Isaac
WR - Treadwell, Prater, Westerkamp

Some good picks. I would have had Wilson and Bulaga but I think they exceed the 10 year window.
I have to admit I missed Fiedorowicz (understandable I never saw him play in HS) and Cooper (I saw plenty, just forgot him).
Only been here 7 seasons and stayed basically in western suburbs so my main thrust is what I know
QB - O'Toole - WWS
RB - Sammy the Bull ( or Brod the Bod) -GW
RB - JJ - GN
WR - Westerkamp - MC
WR - Treadwell - CM
TE - Nathan Marcus - GW
T - Watt - GW
G - B Allen - HC
C - M Allen - HC
G - Jarvis - MS
T - Caspars - GW
Defense
DL - Schutt - GW
DL - King - HS
DL - Epenza - Ed (South but I got to see him)
DL - Beckner - ESL
LB - Loftus - GW
LB - Borland - Brook
LB - Vitale - WWS
LB - Moskul - LZ
CB - Love - Naz
CB - Langenderfer LWE ( might have been LB but was size of CB)
S - Carlson - GW
Total homer job, so sue me.

Rashard Mendenhall anyone... or was he before the time frame mentioned?
Watched the '13 7A game vs. Zurich last night on youtube. One of most dominating performances I have ever seen from an MC player.
How about Riley Lees? I believe he's the first QB to pass for over 2,000 yards and rush for over 2,000 in one season.
Absolutely incredible but I chose O'Toole due to his two titles.
A beast of a back. was at the game when he injured his knee against mac, and sad to see him go down, but glad he bounced back the following year and then had a productive career at Illinois.

I had O'Toole because I have a stable of receivers to which I need to distribute the ball.
I never saw Isaac or Perez but I did see JJ and Brods and Brods did things on the field I will likely never again see in HS.
