Harvel was the third coach in Detroit PSL history to win a state football title, joining Jim Reynolds (King) and Wilcher (Cass). Every state football title from the PSL has come since 2007.

The height of of the King program under Jim Reynolds was 1987 -1991. After that the program was not as dominant. The 2007 season was blessing in that there were several DPS schools closing bringing in great talent (Nick Perry) along with Flen (Whitfield) deciding to play football his senior year.

Those teams in the the late 80's and early 90's was stacked with D1 talent.

Darnell Dickerson, Kerwin Moore, Terrence Wheatley, David Bowden, Deon Johnson, Damon Primus, Ed Davis, Clarence Thompson and much more.

There wasn't much left when Reynolds left, Harvel has really built up the talent and honed in on coaching. The teams from the past two years is near the talent level of those teams in the late 80's early 90's.
