DumAssWhiteGuy Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Hey, I grew up in NE Ohio but I don't know any of these! My Grandma lived for a while next to the Garfield house in Mentor so for him I'll say Mentor but it probably wasn't called Mentor HS in those days!

The Gipper Posted February 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 is this a joke.........first answer Massillon HS No, all these people attended high school in Northeast Ohio.. It is simply trivial. You knew one answer. Do you not know any others? Massillon is right of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted February 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 #18 is Mantua and #20 is my Alma Mater Benedictine- you forgot to mention Tom Weiskopff. Check for #20 (I guess I did leave Tom off). On #18, the HS in question is in Mantua, but is not called Mantua HS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DumAssWhiteGuy Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 You could have added ESPN college football analyst/former Vikings RB Robert Smith. He's from Euclid but went to one of the private schools that recruited great football players on the east side and now I can't remember the school (doh!). He was also the ONLY one ever named "Mr Ohio" twice as the best football player in the state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob806 Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Bob806 got #1, #5, #17 sorta, and #21 right. I didn't know Bo Schembechler was from around here, but I knew he went to Miami of Oh. My uncle played with him for two years, kind of cool (even if he coached that school up north).

Seeing as how that's where I grew up im going to take partial credit and say Crestwood on this one but it's #17 not #18. Chrissie Hynde went to Firestone in Akron I think.

Crestwood H.S. I don't know why they gave the school the name Crestwood. Do you? My curiosity is peaked because the street I live on happens to be named Crestwood.
