I don't care what anyone says that's just freaking impressive!
It's going to be very difficult to replace all those guys in 2026.
Edna Karr does have 5 juniors who will be seniors this year with SEC offers, but that's some serious talent to replace.

I don't think anyone in the nation signed "18" kids this year.
I could be wrong.
If someone knows of a team I sure would like to know who it is.
Updated to 25.
That's just ridiculous.

South Oak Cliff finished the year ranked #1 in Texas.....they had 26 sign. The most in Texas.
I will try to find a list. I'd like to see it.
That's equally amazing!
Kind of crazy.
Edna Karr and South Oak Cliff were very close to working out a home/home series last year, but they just couldn't nail it down.

That would've been a very good game.
Millard South signed 21.
Hard to believe, but equally impressive.
You don't really think anything about a Dallas or NOLA squad being stacked it doesn't shock anyone.
But, Omaha?
I read Millard South is piping in players from all over the state and from out of state.
Crazy. Nebraska just isn't a hot bed for high school football.

I kept telling everybody MS was the real deal last year. They should've played Basha instead of Arbor View last year. That game was a waste of their talent.
According to Rivals Millard South has the #1 Impact Transfer in the nation so far.
Millard South gets players from everywhere and I just don't understand that.
The University of Nebraska must be paying large dollars for this transfer.
1. QB Trae Taylor: Carmel Catholic (IL) to Millard South (Neb.)
When Trae Taylor, a four-star 2027 Nebraska quarterback commit, told Rivals' Greg Smith that he would be leaving Carmel Catholic (IL) to spend his senior season at Millard South (Neb.), it instantly became the biggest transfer of the high school football off-season. Taylor will step in seamlessly for outgoing Jett Thomalla, who is now enrolled at the University of Alabama, after a season where the passer earned Illinois Offensive Player of the Year honors. Last season at Carmel Catholic, Taylor was as good as they come with the signal caller completed an eye-popping 81 percent of his passes (205 of 251) for 3,571 yards, 38 touchdowns and a mere three interceptions while adding 666 and 12 scores on the ground. Impact to Millard South is it keeps the Patriots as the best team in Nebraska and on the precipice of being nationally ranked.
3* WR Antayvious Ellis (Crowley,TX) also transferred to Millard South for his senior season. Obviously, to get better in sync with QB Taylor before they go to Nebraska. Looks like MS won't miss a beat this year. Hopefully, they play someone worthy OOS.
Also, Westside (MS's main rival with a pulse) and Millard North are getting some transfers in as well. Neither one will challenge MS, though......maybe Westside.
That wouldn't fly in Louisiana and lots of other places.
Sounds like Nebraska's trying to turn Millard South into a Prep School for Nebraska commits.
They should play an independent national schedule and be banned from the Nebraska state playoffs.

Off the top of my head I can think of three situations (in three different states) where this happened:
- Dylan Raiola notably transferred from Arizona to attend Buford not long after committing to UGA
- Kevin Sperry transferred from Texas to Oklahoma and played his junior year at Carl Albert
- Michael Tollefson ended up at Mountain Pointe after he committed to ASU (this one did involve a CIF eligibility issue that helped facilitate/necessitate that move.
Incidentally those first two didn't end up at the school they first committed to but this is not a terribly uncommon practice.

I don't know about any of that.
But In Louisiana you cannot live with a 4th cousin or your mother's ex-boyfriend from 30 years ago and etc.
I'm sure Catholic (Baton Rouge) would love to be a Prep School for LSU commits. It ain't happening.
LHSAA
"Key Takeaway: A student moving into Louisiana from out-of-state must have a legitimate, full-family move to a new residential address in the new school district to be immediately eligible, otherwise, they face a one-year sit-out period."
I guess if 2 or 5 full families wanted to pack up their lives and move to Baton Rouge so their son could play just 1 year of football the LHSAA couldn't do anything about that........that year!
But you can bet your bottom dollar there would be a new ruling/law the following year.

Taylor's hometown per ESPN is a rather affluent location (income demographics are comparable to Scottsdale out here), so his family could have just...moved. And in a world where remote work is an option for many careers someone doesn't even need deep pockets for their entire family to move.

According to what I just read he's moving out there with his mother.
I guess she's going to do something out there. I haven't seen Dad mentioned once anywhere really. Maybe I didn't do enough quality research.
This is all out of my scope. I have no idea what's going on out there.
Whatever it is it feels wrong to me .

I guess he'll be driving 120 miles (round trip) everyday to Millard South which is in Omaha.
"But first things first – yes, Trae Taylor plans to move to Lincoln and live there with his mother while making the daily drive to Millard South for a single semester this fall before enrolling early in Lincoln for the 2027 spring semester. For those wondering about that daily commute, it will be shorter than the one he currently makes to Carmel Catholic High School in Mundelein, Illinois, from his home in the Chicago suburbs."

Yup, with transfers from all over, but they were okay since he was trying to explain how they were different.

To think it doesn't happen by you is tomfoolery. Louisiana is no different than any other place in the US, just because you want to think it doesn't happen, doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

You did a fantastic job proving Louisiana lets OUT OF STATE PLAYERS transfer in to play just 1 year so they can be close to the LSU football program/campus. Well done, junior
People will be lining up for you to defend them in court.
Lincoln Riley's highest rated recruit ever was the Stewart kid in 2024 from NOLA.
He couldn't even transfer from St Aug to Edna Karr his senior season and be eligible.to play football.....and the schools are just 4 1/2 miles apart. So Stewart didn't even play his senior year at Edna Karr.
You keep telling people what you think you know and I'll keep providing facts.
Understand?
Millard South's starting QB this year will be from Illinois.
Millard South's #1 starting WR this year will be from Texas.
Maybe Millard South will pick up a 4* or 5* RB from California?..... they have 6 or 7 months to work on it
It's obviously not against the law.
Last year Millard South got busted for having 2 players living with a volunteer assistant coach. I don't know if those were OOS players or not. Really doesn't matter.
I got my eye on this program. They appear a tad shady to me and definitely a program Sleazy Joe from New Jersey should be all over.

I guess we should use all of the kids from every state that have gotten caught lying about their addresses and the teams that have had to forfeit their games.
You bring up an example and think nothing gets by the Gestapo known as the LHSAA to you.
