Interested to see that ranking given the level of competition.
Like Georgia, private schools in Alabama can play either in the independent association or the high school association. In my experience, AISA would be below the lowest high school classification in terms of depth and talent.
Only 8 teams make the playoffs, so three wins gets you a state title. It's the same teams playing for a title every single season for years.
Maybe the kid is an elite QB. I have no idea. I just have a hard time believing that a 5'9 QB off a tiny private school who plays against the weakest competition in the state is the 8th best HS QB in Alabama.
