Paced by Compton transfer Anthony January's 25 points, Taft was too much for the undersized Cougars. With a long 6'8" frame, the athletic January presented problems in the paint for Crenshaw. January dominated the glass for Head Coach Jason Hart's Taft squad, and rocked the rim with a few incredible dunks. The senior January currently holds offers from Memphis and UNLV, and many other programs have shown interest.

1. Matt Barkley (QB/USC, Senior)

USC senior quarterback Matt Barkley enters the 2012 season as the clear front runner for the Heisman Trophy. With an arsenal of playmakers at his disposal, including receivers Robert Woods and Marqise Lee, Barkley should put up big numbers on his way to leading the Trojans to the national title.

Heading into his fourth season under center, Barkley has the experience and leadership needed to lead USC back to greatness. Barring injury, expect Matt Barkley to take home the Heisman, win a national title and be the first pick in the 2013 NFL Draft.

Los Angeles, CA

De'anthony Thomas, or the "Black Mamba" as people refer to him, was a standout player at Crenshaw High School (Los Angeles, CA). Thomas was one of the top overall recruits in the nation going into his senior year. Projected by many to play multiple positions at the NCAA level, Thomas has developed into arguably the best athlete in all of college football going into the 2012 college football season. At 5'9", 170 pounds, what Thomas does not possess in terms of size, he makes up for with dedication, speed and pure ability.

De'Anthony Thomas just finished running the fastest time in the nation this year in the 200M at the LA City Section track meet, and on the football field he's proven himself to be equally dangerous. Last year, Thomas led the Crenshaw High School Cougars football team to a L.A. City Section title and a trip to the CIF State Championship game as a junior.
