VYPE Hot 20 Countdown: No. 6 Everman

VYPE High School Sports Magazine brings you the VYPE Hot 20 list of area teams capable of capturing a state football championship in 2008. Today's team is... No. 6 EVERMAN Why they're a team to watch: Everman sat around last year as district rivals Stephenville and Aledo got all the press and used that as motivation for a state semifinal run. Everman and underrated coach Dale Keeting will be in the limelight this year. The defense should be terrific with six starters back, including defensive end Keith Rushton, who had nine sacks last season, and linebackers Lee Langston and Devin Woods, who combined for 133 tackles in 2007. Everman also brings back a 1,000-yard rusher, Ryan Smith, and wide receiver Chris Franklin, who was 65 yards shy of a 1,000 yards receiving.
