The Platform started a new weekly high school football show, the “Under the Lights Podcast” which has been airing every Sunday on the DR Sportz YouTube channel.
This week’s show featured CJ Gilbert who has worked with The Platform at DR7 tournaments and works with his sports media company “UnLock Your Game” in Alabama.
Gilbert discussed his top 5 Alabama high school football teams in 2024, naming some programs that you would expect to see on the list and others that may come as a surprise.
Alabama is one of the underrated states when it comes to high school football, annually churning out numbers of elite and D1 prospects.
Gilbert has been covering Alabama high school football for nearly a decade and provided some great insight not only to the top teams in the state but the sleepers as well.
