Which new dynasty

[EagleFan]

With my current dynasty winding down as Luke inches closer to retirement, I was looking over where to go next. I like followin g players as they move through the ranks as opposed to individual teams (kind of takes it down to a more personal level). I have looked over the current recruiting classes to see who to begin to follow (the dynasty won't start immediately after Luke's retirement as I want to get a few seasons ahead before Ibegin to post, that way I can keep the pacnig a lot better than doing it as I go).

I have decided to follow not one player, but a class of seniors from one high school. I have listed the senior classes in thei poll and decided to leave it up to you for which class I follow.

They are:

1) Mutt and Jeff - a pair of receivers from Ashford High in Ashford Alabama. Kurt Treu (#955) who stands at 5'10 and his team-mate Kevin Mickens (#925) who dwarfs Kurt as he stands 6'3" tall.

2) Dumb and dumber - quarterback Clyde Walsh and receiver Bobby Noa from Independence High in Glendale Arizona. They have test scores of 762 and 672.

3) The California Five - five graduating seniors from Benicia High in Benicia California. Center Winfred Capstick (#127), kicker Maurice Prescott (n/r), defensive end Matt Dyer (#700), inside linebacker Deron Houston (n/r) and cornerback Bernard Wisne (#141).

4) Southern Duo - two top 100 defensive players from Bainbridge High in Bainbridge, Georgia. Inside linebacker Nicky Parrella (#91) and cornerback Matt Blaise (#10).

5) Jerzee Boyz - two top 100 book-end defensive ends from Freehold Township Regional in Freehold, New Jersey. Donald Eastman (#18) and Brenden Washington (#56).

6) Big Apples - three seniors from Samuel J. Tilden High in Brooklyn, New York. Running back Bob O'Neill (#642), defensive end Monty Mann (#81) and outside linebacker Ben Carlisle (#245).

I vote Big Apples.

Dumb and dumber, if you can get some good sarcasm and humor.

Would be short though if they fail out of school

My vote is for the Southern Boys, though any would be great.

[Alf]

Big Apples all the way !

[Godzilla Blitz]

They all sound good to me.

Jerzee Boyz was my vote.

I've begun writing up a dynasty, sort of. I'm actually trying to floowing a coulpe of these (based on the voting) to see what pans out as the best story early on. So far it looks like they've all classified as dumb and dumber. Only one of the players that I've wathced has not been in danger of failing and he won't have much of a career. I've had one leave school following a suspension (not for academic reasons) and 2 get placed on academic probation. The others have all been a D- or two away from probation on at least one occasion. The most dissapointing is one player will be about to go on probation following an all-conference 1st team selection, a season that he got 4 D's and 1 failure. Another was on probation in a season in which he would have most likely bee the starter and the team went to the championship game. There is also one player on a team that has lost over 30 games in a row. It will be a little while before I flesh out the possible stories enough to begin posting. I will probably do like I did with Luke, get the early part ready to go and then finish the last bit as I go (I liked the surprise ending with him winning the Super Bowl, not knowing kept me from ever giving a hint that something better was coming for him).
