It has not been a great year for high school football players across the country.
With the Pandemic cutting into everything – especially football – many of these prospects are sitting here without a place to go.
As much of the focus on this day was gaining exposure for the media and college coaches to promote, it was also about Terrell Owens.
Invited to the MRE (Major College Recruiting) event by owner and founder Ernesto “Ernie” Munguia to come speak to the area athletes who attended the event at Ives Estates Park, this 16-year NFL standout shared the qualities that put him in the Hall of Fame – despite never getting recruited.

There are very few people who know and understand that landscape of football in south Florida like Chris McGonigal.
From the competitive and successful youth programs all the way to high school, his knowledge and passion has made him one of those people that many gravitate toward.
When the Class of 2021 began playing football, they were told that if you got it done in the classroom – everything would take care of itself.
While that sage advice has worked for so many, others have hit a wall – and while they have achieved in the classroom, the pandemic has played a key part in many student/athletes are getting overlooked – more than usual.
While the return of the Florida-Georgia High School All-Star Football Game didn’t end well for Team Florida, the experience of playing in the event was indeed very special.
Even though Team Georgia won the game, 26-10, with two late interception returns for scores, the four days spent by both teams certainly outweighed the outcome.
