Our high school team lost to them dudes in the state quarter finals by a landslide. I remember it being freezing cold(rare in Louisiana) and Joe came to our house and stomped us out like a finished cigarette. Rest in peace, thanks for the memories
I graduated the year after Joe and had the honor of playing with him and knowing him. He was a great dude who knew what he was worth and never acted like he was too good for anyone. Rest In Peace Joe
Watched him play many a game at SC and it did take him a while to come on, but he did flash some brilliance. I remember hearing about him being shot, but truly didn't know all the circumstances until now. Another great video.
I had the pleasure of watching Lavarr Arrington play in HS. He did it all, I think he still holds the WPIAL rushing record....played LB, punted and returned punts and kickoffs. He was like Henry, a man among children. Of course he lived and went on to the #2 pick overall in 2000
I remember watching his high school film and just gawking at how smooth he was with the ball in his hands. And that extra gear he could seem to find when he needed to make the corner or just get past that last defender without allowing contact were some guys would look to run over that defender. Hate to see how it ended but this is another story with no winners.
Wow, that is sad. Don’t act tough because you have a gun and also, don’t act tough because someone else might have a gun. There were a lot of chances for both parties to deescalate this mess and now two lives are over for all intents and purposes.
Why are kids scared to fight with their hands anymore. Almost every Friday after the football games there was fight, we would make a huge circle and the fight was on. It seems like kids now a days live in a video game and couldn't throw the hands for nothing.

He barely even touched the ball in high school. He use to have like 5 touches with 4 tds. He literally scored every time he touched the ball in high school.
Leonard Fournette, from New Orleans, running back, #1 player in the country while in highschool. In Louisiana we have great talent, great food, and great verbal swag. If we could just stop the violence down here.
His freshmen year at USC was great. Back then freshmen and sophomores didn’t play like they do today. It’s amazing he saw the field, much less had 500 yards. It wasn’t for a few more seasons that it was common to see underclassmen playing regularly, unless they were like Adrian Peterson.
I remember the hype around this guy. I was big into football and only 17 around this time. His name always stuck with me even tho I'm from the Midwest. I remember seeing his name drafted and trading for him in Madden. However, as I grew up, I never heard about his death and if I did, I must have forgot it was this guy from when I was young. Sad story
Isaiah 41:10 (NIV) "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
When I was 18, some 40 year old guy stopped behind me at a red light, got out of his truck and ran up to my passenger window, which was down, and reached in and smacked a pile of flyers I had in there all over the place. I had no idea he was there until he got to the window and was screaming his head off at me, throwing shit around. One of the craziest things that I've ever been involved in and scared the shit out of me because I didn't see him coming. He claimed...well cursed me out and screamed that I cut him off on the interstate a ways back, changing lanes or something I guess, I really don't know, and I didn't recognize his truck and boat trailer he had because I had never seen it on the road. I mean this dude was so unbelievably freaking mad, it was crazy. Thank god he gave up and left, I'm glad he didn't have a gun, I'm sure he was pissed enough to use it. I just apologized, even though I thought I was 100% certain I hadn't cut anyone off and this guy was mistaken but maybe I didn't see him I guess. Anyway, I can see how this can happen to anybody. Some people REALLY have anger issues and need to figure out how to chill. I think he realized I was a young college kid rather than some guy his age and realized he was overreacting after a bit. But damn, chill bro lol. Why were you so mad that you followed me a couple of miles out of your way to come and start a fight about an accident that didn't happen? shit was nuts. People like that shouldn't have a weapon in their vehicle. Im as guilty as anyone for screaming at some bad driver in my car but I don't ever see myself being angry enough to actually get out and go start a fight. 😬

I’ve watched a lot of you’re videos and this was really well told (always is but this was really good bro) and I wasn’t familiar with the case and appreciate the awareness. RIP Joe man.
Matt, if I had a running back that caries ball 94 times, and he was getting 7.4 yards a carry. He's getting that rock!!!!!! R.I.P Joe!!!!!! I remember him.
Imagine...having what it takes to make it to the league....and u lose the desire to put in the work . I can imagine losing the desire to put in the work ! (Because it's as much work as anyone could think....times a million) it's an extremely difficult amount of hard work

Then the Jets ruined him like they do everyone else they draft or sign outright. Damn! He was an amazing player and an even better young man. Huge loss to everyone who knew him.
I was second best back in the state behind this dude in 06 07. he was a senior I was a junior. I always looked up to him and was devastated when he got killed.
I liked and subscribed solely because the narrator started the video by saying "First off, R.I.P Joe McKnight." Good video brother, hope you keep them coming
20:00 so when you’re in the right you should flee the scene?.. that made no sense. regardless, running up on someone’s window after a verbal dispute is never smart. especially if you live in a legal carry state.
The way people act on the road in this country always blows my mind. It's as if they forget that we live in a country that allows you to bare arms. Why the hell would you approach someone sitting in a car that is distressed? Even if the guy didn't have a gun, what was Joe gonna do anyway? Just drive away folks, it's not worth it.
Big Trojan fan and we were thrilled to get this guy. USC never used him properly or enough. Rumor was he was not exactly a hard worker in the weight room or at practice. Nonetheless he was a fantastic tailback with 4.3 speed, a terrific burst and great cutting ability plus he could catch the ball out of the backfield and make things happen. In addition he was a super dangerous return man. RIP Joe McKnight.
In life, people “peak” at different times of their lives. That can mean their Looks, Wit, Success, Physically, Love Life, etc. This is certainly true in football. Some guys peak in High School, others College, others in the NFL. Some people can succeed through multiple segments of their lives, but generally speaking, this dude peaked in High School. Even still, he had a chance to still live a guest life and this is tragic!
What you even talking about slick hating you don't have any idea what this man could have been or anything about him peaking stop dry hating get a life
I enjoyed the contents with the exception that the methods or means of how he received the Rover, was not confirmed or shown to be illegal, but perhaps unethical and or a broken moral code. Not illegal.
Yeah, the dude's name was Scott SCHENTER as one can clearly see from the article. I worked with him at the LA County Assessor's office. Dude was clearly guilty and is now facing about 30 years jail time for helping a property tax agent reduce values (and thus taxes) for scores of well-connected people in LA. His names continues to bring shame to our office.
Rest in peace, Joe McKnight. Having said that, that I disagree with your take. Joe McKnight got up out of his car and rolled up on the dude who ended up shooting him. What was that dude supposed to do? He had no idea Joe was going to punch him assault him or maybe even stab him or shoot him. What you supposed to wait find out? By the time he found out, he could have been the one that was killed. Tragic to be sure, but Joe McKnight is half responsible for his own demise. The other guy was convicted of manslaughter, not Murder One. 30 years is very excessive for a credible case of self-defense. Now all of you out there hate on me!
The dude that shot Joe also followed him knowing he had a gun, as someone with a CCW you have to understand that everything you do may involve a gun. When he followed joe it was not self defense, just two engaging bad behavior, unfortunately one is dead and the other got 30 year for manslaughter
@@derekbraggs5607 no one is required to flee an aggressive person. Trayvon case already established that much. McKnight escalated the situation and it cost him his life.

15:05 USC was known for paying athletes back then. I mean Reggie just got his Heisman trophy back cause that house they bought his momma. Lucky for him, rules changed 😂
Saw this guy come to Alabama his senior yr in high school almost single handedly beat Hoover high which was the number 1 ranked high school football team in the country at the time.....and as you stated he did it all.....caught a interception.....catch a receiving td.....rushed for a td ...and had a field day on punt and kick off returns
I'm disappointed you didn't play one video of him actually playing football. No clue who that is in the video. very disappointed. I played with Joe from 7th grade through HS. he was the most freakish athlete I've seen. Him and Deon Sanders..
Lol. Fa real bro! I remember when y’all came to Laplace and played us at East St. John. It was a war. I miss this fellow. Me and him was the only ones from Louisiana that made the army all American game. That was my roommate out there
I made a previous comment that your voice was hard for me to listen to being from a small country TX town. Today I hear much less draw and it is much more appealing. Hope that was constructive criticism and your content is first class man. Thank you for the stories, good luck and stay blessed!
I didn’t see not 1 HS film of Joe on this video. John Curtis uniforms and colors doesn’t have black in it at all. I’m from Louisiana. Idk what number 4 you’re showing but that’s not Joe
Knowing the history of road rage, law enforcement should really crack down on wreckless driving. They don't crack down enough on people weaving through/in and out of traffic. Not only can it cost a road rage incident that could lead to someone losing their life, like this Joe McKnight situation, but it can also cause bad accidents where innocent people get seriously hurt.
Another good story, but I have to bring up I'm pretty sure that actually video clips are of Miles Sanders. I know that McKnight never played for Woodland Hills in Pittsburgh. Good story anyway.
The reason his stats were not what most would think is because we demolished every one we played. The ones barely played. In a typical game the ones would play the first quarter and come back in and open up the second half for a series or two before going back to the bench to let the two’s and three’s finish the game. If our coaching staff wanted to run his numbers up they easily could have. Keep in mind he played on a team where second and third team got just as many if not more snaps per game than the one’s.
@@stefoinfrancois2149 I actually remember that game. Y’all barely beat us after us not having a single practice and was also our first game of the season. We won state that year and didn’t lose another game. Hahnville smacked y’all twice. Y’all were pretty good but let’s be honest we clearly had the better team and loosing the game we did was a fluke. Had it not been our first game with no practice the outcome would have been different. We didn’t even have our full roster back after Katrina.
I usually rock with your videos but you talking about his numbers as if he told the coaches he doesn't want more than 100 carries. His numbers are amazing and so was his talent.
Isaiah 41:10 (NIV) "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Check your use of the word “illegal”. Doing something that is against NCAA regs is not illegal. The NCAA is not a legal body and doesn’t own these cats, it only determines whether they are eligible for participation in sports at member institutions.
That car was worth far more than 20k then. Cars were actually more expensive then. I have an old 1996 Oldsmobile 88. The car was 30k new. Hardly any American cars are 30k today.
My highschool played his when I was in middle school 😢 we lost by 6. They were literally blowing out everybody but them Clinton eagles had the number 2 defense in Louisiana at that time.🤦🏾♂️💯🥶
18 yards is insane every if the competition is trash. Gotta look at who they played and sounds like he was in the private school league that's usually nowhere near the competition in public schools.

HE DIDN'T WANT TO SELL OUT
I remember when he played the hoover Bucs on the mtv show two-a-days and he was killing them.
He averaged 7 yards a carry that’s not his fault that’s the coaching staff fault for not giving him the ball more
😮
7 yards a carry is very good…
Man that’s actually wild 7.4 yards a carry…. Maybe if he had 200 Carrie’s the team would’ve performed better
He failed in college and nfl. He was just not that good

as a jets fan i miss him man rest up 🙏🏾🙏🏾
You left out his crazy weight lifting injury. He dropped a bar on his throat
That was actually Stafon* Johnson. I always confused the two as well not sure why.
You will post this while I have to go to sleep for school in the morning, smh matt.
I love how u explain the obvious like “”the Mardi Gras” and what a “Land Rover” is
Exactly. So redundant and annoying
I love these vids but that shit is hilarious. And he ain’t even know what Mardi Gras is really smh.
15:05 USC was known for paying athletes back then. I mean Reggie just got his Heisman trophy back cause that house they bought his momma. Lucky for him, rules changed 😂
That's why I would never root for USC.. Rules weren't changed til much much much later..
Im still trying to figure out who’s highlights we’re watching throughout this entire film because that’s not Joe in high school. 😂
@mattbegreat please correct
A Louisiana legend!!!
DanG dats COLD 🥶 Rest In Power McKnight...I lik ur videos bro u do a damn gud job...Keep up da good wrk
That band you showed as his high school band that was booed...that was the Southern University marching band "The Human Jukebox"!!!
It hurt to the core that he left Louisiana to go to to USC. He should have been an LSU TIGER. Rest In Peace Joe.
Miss Joe he was a awesome player. R.I.P.
Saw this guy come to Alabama his senior yr in high school almost single handedly beat Hoover high which was the number 1 ranked high school football team in the country at the time.....and as you stated he did it all.....caught a interception.....catch a receiving td.....rushed for a td ...and had a field day on punt and kick off returns
I'm disappointed you didn't play one video of him actually playing football. No clue who that is in the video. very disappointed. I played with Joe from 7th grade through HS. he was the most freakish athlete I've seen. Him and Deon Sanders..
Aw lol. Makes sense
Lol. Fa real bro! I remember when y’all came to Laplace and played us at East St. John. It was a war. I miss this fellow. Me and him was the only ones from Louisiana that made the army all American game. That was my roommate out there
So that’s not him #4?
He shouldn't have ever got out of his Car. Especially on the Highway. Road Rage will get you killed
JS
I made a previous comment that your voice was hard for me to listen to being from a small country TX town. Today I hear much less draw and it is much more appealing. Hope that was constructive criticism and your content is first class man. Thank you for the stories, good luck and stay blessed!
I like the film mattbegreat using Miles Sanders as the running back on the highlights film my high school team used to play against Miles Sanders
When you look at his stats at USC, he was just not getting the ball enough. His average yard per carry was great!
I didn’t see not 1 HS film of Joe on this video. John Curtis uniforms and colors doesn’t have black in it at all. I’m from Louisiana. Idk what number 4 you’re showing but that’s not Joe
Knowing the history of road rage, law enforcement should really crack down on wreckless driving. They don't crack down enough on people weaving through/in and out of traffic. Not only can it cost a road rage incident that could lead to someone losing their life, like this Joe McKnight situation, but it can also cause bad accidents where innocent people get seriously hurt.
I was in New Orleans a few days before Katrina hit. I was at a billiards expo. I was one of the last tourists to see how it was.
Another good story, but I have to bring up I'm pretty sure that actually video clips are of Miles Sanders. I know that McKnight never played for Woodland Hills in Pittsburgh. Good story anyway.
This is TRUE, @mattbegreat pls correct the clips.
250k Range Rover??? 😂😂 good one Matt
The reason his stats were not what most would think is because we demolished every one we played. The ones barely played. In a typical game the ones would play the first quarter and come back in and open up the second half for a series or two before going back to the bench to let the two’s and three’s finish the game.
If our coaching staff wanted to run his numbers up they easily could have. Keep in mind he played on a team where second and third team got just as many if not more snaps per game than the one’s.
Everybody except for East St. John. Joe was cold though. We went too war that year. Salute and RIP
@@stefoinfrancois2149 I actually remember that game. Y’all barely beat us after us not having a single practice and was also our first game of the season. We won state that year and didn’t lose another game. Hahnville smacked y’all twice. Y’all were pretty good but let’s be honest we clearly had the better team and loosing the game we did was a fluke. Had it not been our first game with no practice the outcome would have been different. We didn’t even have our full roster back after Katrina.
I thought FlemLo was my guy but you right up there with him….keep up the great job! ✌️
Hey Matt those highlights are Miles Sanders high school football highlights. Just an FYI with all due respect.
@7:00 "people from Louisiana were so pissed off that he left their beloved home state and went to LSU".... ummm 🤔
Late night banger tonight
Hey Matt watch all your vids best football channel
Facts
I don’t drive I have seen road rage and it scares me
I usually rock with your videos but you talking about his numbers as if he told the coaches he doesn't want more than 100 carries. His numbers are amazing and so was his talent.
Lol rightb bruh. this youtube people don't tell the whole story. Joe Knight was amazing
7.4 yrds per carry at USC? That's damn good even for a #1.
Isaiah 41:10 (NIV)
"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
@@davidhawkins3031 Don't know who this is for (maybe everyone)? But thanks!!! I needed that, at this time. I definitely need to work on my faith and operating in fear. Again thanks, the timing is amazing. At the time you sent it, dealing with seemingly overwhelming issues. Peace and God's continued blessings brother!
Don't really know who is in the video.. But John Curtis High had different helmets and jerseys.. But the story was all on point
My sandbox homie davon Benn played for his high school did his thing to never knew the ex Trojan was from New Orleans
Joe Mcknight wanted to be Reggie Bush. Reggie Bush in H.S.>Joe Mcknight in H.S. Reggie Bush in College>Joe Mcknight in College. Not saying much Reggie Bush in the NFL> Joe Mcknight NFL.
Check your use of the word “illegal”. Doing something that is against NCAA regs is not illegal. The NCAA is not a legal body and doesn’t own these cats, it only determines whether they are eligible for participation in sports at member institutions.
Great point!
That car was worth far more than 20k then. Cars were actually more expensive then. I have an old 1996 Oldsmobile 88. The car was 30k new. Hardly any American cars are 30k today.
do a video on tyler hansbrough or carlton bragg
What team is he playing for in this video? That’s not his high school John Curtis
Do you have any actual Joe McKnight footage because this isn’t John Curtis High School
We haven't heard from you 😂oh yeah you have been busy with basketball 😂😂😂
The McKnight situation is kinda like bama this year except our expectations were valid cuz we had a busted team just they didn’t show up
My highschool played his when I was in middle school 😢 we lost by 6. They were literally blowing out everybody but them Clinton eagles had the number 2 defense in Louisiana at that time.🤦🏾♂️💯🥶
One of my former neighbors was shot and killed in a road rage incident..
18 yards is insane every if the competition is trash. Gotta look at who they played and sounds like he was in the private school league that's usually nowhere near the competition in public schools.
R.I.P Joe McKnight
One of my favorite USC RBs. RIP Trojan Joe
Joe was probably disappointed by not having the same clean running lanes in college that he had in high school.
That's some good footage for it to be from 06.
