Odel James, Aldine MacArthur - this kid was VY before VY. See 1995 5A State Championship. This kid almost willed his team to victory
 
I rambled down to Memorial Stadium to see a high school playoff game that included Eric Dickerson of Sealy. Awesome player.

It used to be fun to go watch a second half high school playoff game for free back when I was in college. I don't think you can do that anymore.
 
Curtis Dickey at Bryan High School. They played in the same district with Temple, Killeen, and I think Waco, and nobody kept Dickey under control all year. He was the biggest factor in Bryan beating a great Killeen team. It's a shame he went on to play for aggy...I'd have loved to see what he could do with some real linemen in front of him at UT.
 
Sam Adams - Cypress Creek

Tyson thompson of irving, that dude was so talented its a shame he was such a knucklehead. And this year stephan taylor of mansfield, he was the epitomy of a one man team.
 
Adrian Peterson (Palestine vs. Huntsville). He ran for about 300 yards on 27 or 28 carries. Looked like he was a foot taller and twice as fast as anyone else out there. I'll never forget one of the Huntsville safeties he flattened on his way to a TD.
 
Two stand out.

Wondrous Warren McVea

Earl The Tyler Rose Campbell

Earl, of course was our guy. Warren was not, but I sure wish he had been. Legend has it that Earl only decided on UT because he had to pee.
 
Billy Sims- Hooks Texas

I know I know about the other night and alot of other times but, there damn sure haven't been many better Texas High School football players than him.
 
Personally seen:
Tommy Nobis
Warren McVay
Gerrald Wilkerson
I go to the Army All America bowl every year so have seen many recent greats. I have never seen a lineman dominate as much as Roy Miller did in that game or a better runner than Reggie Bush.
Well I also remember seeing Perriwinkle cracking jokes behind the bench while not even paying any attention to the game.
 
I was a 70s HS guy, so that skews my results:

1. Tommy Kramer, San Antonio Lee
2. Vince Young, Houston Madison
3. Sammie Singleton, Baytown Sterling
4. Carl Roaches, Houston Smiley
5. David Shipman, Odessa Permian

Tommy Kramer is first by a considerable distance.
 
Adrian Peterson-Palestine
Randy Simmons-McKinney
Quan Cosby-Mart
Martellus Bennett-Alief Taylor
Chris Collins-Texas High
Ryan Mallett-Texas High
Aundre Dean-Katy
Trent Hunter-Katy
Marcus Stiggers-Lake Highlands, I believe
 
Couple of years ago in a district game you could see Roy Williams, Cedric Benson and Eric Winston. Pretty salty line up if i must say so.
 
Austintxusa

After looking at your list i was surprised that you did not include:
Wesley Roberts Amarillo Palo Duro
