White Hall may have one of the best offensive lines in the state. Averaging just shy of 290 pounds per man, the Bulldogs could also be the biggest. The starting lineup goes like this:
LT Sr. Brett Craine, 6-6, 294
LG Jr. Tyler Richmond, 5-11, 281
C Jr. Aaron Sprinkle, 6-3, 322
RG Jr. Jo Jo Gorman, 5-10, 246
RT Sr. Nick Partridge, 6-5, 304
All five can bench press above 300 pounds. Craine and Partridge are definite college prospects.
Sprinkle is one of the better junior linemen in the state. He possesses a 5.13 speed in the 40-yard dash and bench presses 340 pounds.
Junior running back Larry Wall, 5-9, 171, 4.45 is another one to look out for in the 2010 class. Walls rushed for nearly 1,000 yards last year.
On defense, free safety Desmond Washington, 6-1, 202, 4.62 is getting serious interest from Oklahoma State.
Running back/cornerback J. J. Martin, 5-9,175, 4.5 is receiving interest from Arkansas State, Louisiana Tech, Tulsa and others.
