oldest highschool 6 man football player

[CoachRios]

Bo Simpson, Trent...I think he was class 2001...he had to get a wavier to play in 1999 and he played in 2000
(come at me coach Rios LOL)
If memory serves me UIL granted his wavier bc he was homeschooled prior bc he was taking care of and living with a disabled relative that was age related I think...old school Trent folks can correct me if I am not remembering correctly

Also he was a STUD, one of the best RBs I played against

Let it go, Leman! LOL!
Exceptional athlete, went on to SFA to be a decathlete and get his CPA degree. 50+ shot put, 6'6" HJ, 23+ LJ and 10.8 in the 100m, and could dunk a basketball at 5'8" under the rim.

This is a crowded field story. I read an article in the '90s about a RB from Chilton turning 20 in the fall of his senior year, I think that they won state that year. Chilton somehow got a waiver from the state.

It was 1993 or 94...RB from Thorndale. I think he had a waiver, but he was over 20 (story I heard).

I heard Jeff Jones was 23 when he won state in the hurdles at Rankin

I couldn’t grow a full mustache until I was in my 30’s when we played may in 84 we ask our coach to have ya’s birth certificate subpoena . Keep in mind Roy McCown was born with a Mallet and a full-grown beard at birth !!!

I didn't turn 19 until after I got out of school. I could grow a beard when I was 14. Roy McCown

I was 18 as a senior and I couldn’t grow a beard until I was 30…
