HurricaneWarning 212 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 I would put Turpin from George Wythe in the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Crue 49 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 I would put Johnson number 1. Imagine if he played against Central, Burton, thomas walker, clintwood, etc. he barely gets any of the carries that Tyler Graham gets because Richlands blows everyone out. One game they did play against same team he was injured, so don't try and throw the Union game out there. Lets see how Tyler does against Gate City.

One game they did play against same team he was injured, so don't try and throw the Union game out there. Lets see how Tyler does against Gate City. Yep. When you have 12 carries and over 200 yards, imagine what it would be if you weren't already up 35 points and got 12 more carries. If we had stiff compition, I'd go as far as to say he'd be closing in on 1,500 now. Maybe more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The Variable Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Yep. When you have 12 carries and over 200 yards, imagine what it would be if you weren't already up 35 points and got 12 more carries. If we had stiff compition, I'd go as far as to say he'd be closing in on 1,500 now. Maybe more. At the same time, however, if the competition were better, he wouldnt be putting up the same yards per carry. The defense would be better. It truely is very hard to tell. Having seen him play though, he is extremely talented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very, very true. And we here at Richlands have been blessed with amazing lines over the last decade. The lines never get enough love, and I'm just as guilty as the next person for overlooking what they do on a gamly basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepin nuts 27 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 I agree, even Adrian Peterson would look like an idiot without a great line. But, when you have the combo of a great line and a once in a lifetime back you start seeing the kind of stats we are seeing this year.

redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 (edited) Olines are everything to an offense. But that has nothin to do w/ a RBs sklill. 1) Graham (power, speed, elusive) 2) D Johnson (speed, POWER) 3) G Meade (Not overly fast or strong but HARD to stop/bring down) 4) B Johnson (I havent seen him but stats dont lie) 5) Berglowe (Speed, elusive, tough, another one that is just hard to bring down) Honerable mention Honaker, Cain, Miles, Turpin, Anders, Blair, Brewer Edited October 17, 2011 by redtiger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 True, im taking into consideration last season. He put up big #s against good competition. If I had done a top 10 Honaker would hav been 6. Anders and Brewer are very good backs that just get overlooked because of who they share a backfield with. Anyone know the stats for these guys? I think the 12 I mentioned covers the top guys in the area Western D1, D2 and Region IV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
