South Carolina's High Football Greats

USA TODAY Sports is celebrating America's 250th anniversary by identifying the greatest high school athletes across states. In South Carolina, the publication selected 10 players who made significant impacts at the high school level before moving on to collegiate and professional success. Notable selections include Shuler Bentley (Byrnes), Courtney Brown (Macedonia), Jadeveon Clowney (South Pointe), and Stephen Davis (Spartanburg).

Each player on the list demonstrated exceptional talent during their high school careers. Bentley set state records with 71 passing touchdowns in 2013, Brown was a two-way standout who became the first pick in the 2000 NFL Draft, Clowney is considered by many as the greatest high school prospect in history, and Davis led Spartanburg to a state championship in 1991 as the nation's top prospect. newsindata.org
