Mooney/ Mentor was ONN's game of the week. John was amazing as he was in the Mentor backfield on seemly every play. The fact he is only a junior is frighting, he has to be one of the top priorities for 09.  |

John spent much of the day in the backfield against Gateway. He lined up at both DE and DT and gave the Gateway OL all that it could handle. I was very impressed with this junior.

- The murmur around the Fawcett Stadium was about Mooney junior John Simon. One scouting agency observed him “as the best player in Ohio bar none.” I can attest, number 54 has the body of a player in the National Football League at 6-3, 266 pounds.
