Whoa, Whoa, now u r getting ahead of yourself. While i certainly think Charles Walker is an outstanding RB but he is not on the same level as Quick or Dawkins.

 

Also, you X guys are mistaken if you think that X has played similiar competition as T. Yeah I'll give you Moeller but No other team that X faced, they couldn't beat any of the teams Trinity has faced.

 

As far as the comparisons go, Quick is on another planet, and neither Dawkins or Walker are on that one.

 

It is tough to compare players, because Dawkins and Walker are totally different. Dawkins is a year older and wiser and faster. Walker is a pounder, but has break away speed.

 

As far as team comparisons go. High School Football is a great equalizer. Coaching makes up for about 80% of what goes down on the field.

 

While Trinity has not won against their current schedule by 2011 margins, they are clearly the team to beat.

 

I do not agree that any team Trinity has faced would just simply beat the Tigers. I think the Moeller game was a good barometer, but remember whom is standing on the sidelines coaching both squads.

I think he was saying the teams T has faced would beat the teams X has faced not X. But as far as Dawkins and Walker, regardless of class, someone please tell me what makes Dawkins better than Walker b/c I don't see it.

Sportsfan are you going to tell me who the top 5 players in the state are?

Being that I just lost my mother (one week today), due to complications from breast cancer, I pray this is true.

 

Sorry if I hit a nerve. iam sorry for your loss and should have been a bit more senstive before posting.

 

I too am a big supporter of breast cancer awareness and contribute quite a bit of money to the local cause.

 

I guess the visual just stuck me as odd. I am all about the cause, wearing pink for support, etc. I hope you accept my apoligy, as there are few things more important than beating cancer....

Quick is the most dynamic player since Michael Bush. In different ways these two players could change a game in a matter of seconds.

 

It would not surprise me to see X use Walker in a variety of ways starting with the Trinity game. This is usually the time of yar when X starts adding a few "wrinkles". X has two other good RBs in Purcell and Davis, so this would be a geat opportunity to split Walker out and do that forward pass thing every one has been refering to.

 

When it comes to the schedule, it will always be an agree to disagree discussion. X has prepared themselves this year to face Trinity by playing big, athletic, and tradition rich schools. They've been tested and in some close games just like T, so I think each teams schedule provided each with what they needed.

What 2players are you speaking of?

Sportsfan are you going to tell me who the top 5 players in the state are?

 

I have not seen X play but I know Walker. For T I am thinking White, Quick, and Hatcher are the "three of the top 5", then I concede that Walker and Dawkins are a push. There are only 4 seniors in KY ranked in the blue chip top 250 nationwide. Those 3 and an Owensboro Apollo lineman. Walker, being a junior, is not yet on that list, but then again neither is Dawkins.

Bowling Green can beat either of those Tennessee teams and also Elder. Also Dutch Fork could beat Elder and hang with the Tennessee teams. And Big play ability Walker is on the same level as DAwkins maybe not Quick but definitely Dawkins.

Maxpreps freemans & Calpreps

I chose these to polls because they rank everyone & are pretty acurate

 

Trinity top oponents

BA ranked 58

MBA ranked 113

elder ranked 158

cincy X Ranked 33

IC ranked 268

moeller ranked 17

 

 

X's best teams that they faced

Dutch Fork ranked 912

BG ranked 250

central ranked 929

 

while i don't totally agree with most of these ranking how ever they have proven to be pretty acurated.

 

BTW Dawkins is on the same level as Quick, Trinity choses to go thru quick in most clutch situtions. If trinity chose to go thru Dawkins the same way in others words run the ball on back to back plays(like they did vs Cincy X) & also as use in the screen game more. Then Dawkins would be viewed to more people in the same Light of Quick.

Now I'm not saying that Dawkins is better than Quick but making the point that when he has been given the oppotunity is on the same level as Quick.

 

Now as far as Dawkins & Walker. There no comparison. Not a knock on walker but He doesn't do anything better than Dawkins

Dawkins hits the hole faster, breaks more tackles, is more shifty & has more top end speed.

 

rather then go back & forth with you here's Dawkins Hightlights

2013 RB DALYN DAWKINS #1 TRINITY HIGH SCHOOL (KY) - YouTube

 

now here's is Walkers

 

Charles Walker #16 - St. X Louisville - YouTube

 

There is clearly a difference & that is Dawkins does things I stated above better.

 

Again not a knock on Mr Walker because he is a fine young man & a outstanding RB

Besides the lineman; Quick, Hatcher, Clyburn, and Walker. (insert your last man)

Dawkins is not in no way shape or form on the same level as quick. But besides that, Elder is not a top 250 team, T had a close win over Mongtemery Bell(who got beat by brentwood 24-6). Rankings mean nothing. If they did Moeller should have beat Lou X by 3-4 tds. Also when looking at Dawkins highlights from last year, look at the holes and how much better his line was in comparison to Walker's. Dawkins is a good back not knocking him, but he isn't better than Walker. Breaking tackles is debatable. Dawkins may have edge in shiftiness and hitting the hole though.

Walker also has 821 yds with 12 tds this season.

I bottomline here is you Like Walker & you are trying to put him on the same as Dawkins & their game Film Don't support what you say & as of matter fact you are the same guy Who once said that X had 3 or 4 backs better than Dawkins. We all know that's certainly not true. Now you are trying bash the rankings because they don't support what you say. You also try to down Dawkins play be saying he had Bigger holes than walker well that's just hog wash. I also might add that Dawkins has a new & very average oline this & he has the same stats he had at this point last years

 

Dawkins is 4* player on Scout & 3* rivals

& will prove be to be an outstanting D1

RB

 

Last year Dawkins vs X last time they played

24 carries 237yards & Quick 4 reception 27 yards

 

Dawkins right now has rushed more than 500 yards & 6 Td's vs X in the four times the faced since his 10th grade year.

Avidtiger when you first started you stated that Walker was on the same as level Quick & Dawkins. you have since back off Quick. I don't know what's your issue with Dawk. let it go man

Btw

BA is 5-1

MBa is 4-2 with big wins over Baylor & Battle ground

Elder is 3-2 big win this week against indy bishop Charard 4-1 & they also beat indy IC

 

Dutch fork is 2-3

BG 5-0 solid but haven't faced any top teams

Central 5-1 great 3a team & they beat some 6a teams in ky but ky 6a is very weak
