### Quarterback lineages
- Woodlawn's quarterback line, 1963–70: Woodlawn started four quarterbacks in eight seasons: Trey Prather, Terry Bradshaw, Joe Ferguson and Johnny Booty. Every one but Bradshaw made All-State — and Bradshaw became a four-time Super Bowl champion. (source: https://lasportshall.com/?inductees=terry-bradshaw)
- The Booty family: Johnny Booty quarterbacked Woodlawn and helped found Evangel Christian Academy. His sons Josh (1993 national high school player of the year) and John David (two-year USC starter) both quarterbacked Evangel. (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josh_Booty)
- The Bradshaw brothers: Terry's younger brother Craig quarterbacked Southwood High, played at Louisiana Tech and Utah State, and reached the NFL with the Houston Oilers and New Orleans Saints. (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craig_Bradshaw_(American_football))
- The Woodlawn coaches: Lee Hedges coached Woodlawn from 1960 to 1965 and had Terry Bradshaw as a first-year starter on his 1965 state-finalist team. A. L. Williams then coached both Bradshaw and Joe Ferguson at Woodlawn and won the 1968 state title with Ferguson at quarterback, before head-coaching jobs at Northwestern State and Louisiana Tech. (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A._L._Williams_(American_football))
- Denny Duron and the Evangel dynasty: Captain Shreve quarterback Denny Duron became Evangel Christian Academy's founding head coach in 1977. The school went on to produce national players of the year Josh Booty (1993) and Brock Berlin (1999), plus John David Booty and Blake Shapen. Duron returned as head coach in 2020, and Berlin now coaches Evangel's offense. (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denny_Duron)
- Southwood to Northeast Louisiana: Two Southwood quarterbacks took the same road to Monroe: Stan Humphries won the 1987 I-AA national title at Northeast Louisiana (now ULM), and Raymond Philyaw followed him there before a long Arena Football League career. (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raymond_Philyaw)
