Writers Note: This All American team is based on the best players in the country who not only have All American talent, but also produce at an All American level at their given position. This may explain why some great players are left off while some very good ones somehow still made the list.

If you have any questions about a particular player who was left off feel free to e-mail me at RickySixx@aol.com and I'll gladly explain why.
