Who Is This FL HS Legend? Ernie Sims III/NFC

[OldSchoolLion]

Who is he?

Where did he play in high school?

Where did he play in college?

Bonus Question: How many state title medals did this guy win while in high school?

[Perspective]

Ernie Sims III

North Florida Christian High School

FSU (rated by some the number one recruit in the country . . . picked FSU over Florida)

Drafted by Detroit, but played with a few other teams, too. 

As for the bonus question, I'll go with 4 (even though NFC didn't win a state championship his senior year).  But, he probably won a medal in another sport like T&F that I don't know about.

You beat me to the punch by a minute. But I will go with three title medals.

It is Ernie Sims III, who won four state titles at N FL Christian...one as an 8th grader.  He then went on to plat at FSU and 8 years in the NFL.
