Dixie, and it won't even be close. They put it away safely by halftime.

Do you have stats by game?

 

I did some digging and have included some interesting numbers from all 6 classes and the top ten in stats in 6A. Comparing apples to oranges, styles of offense, etc. If you are the feature back of your team then you are a good high school RB, but that DOES NOT make you D1. I think Powell and England both serve their team well, but everything is always a debate, then people coming to the defense of one or the other. If you want to compare stats then do so here they are but I assure you and no disrespect to anyone the numbers are average at best compared to some of the top backs in the state. I will analyze in my next post:

Believing in the Dixie Heights Colonels and at games end a mutually healthy pod of 6A District 6 student/athletes...

I think it's safe to say that no one knows for sure what DI schools think of any of the backs in question and we won't know until after their Junior season is over because then and only then can coaches personally call and contact the players themselves.

 

All we we are doing is speculating. Until the season is over we wont know what if any DI coaches are serious about any of the jr RB's and if they are interested in them at the RB position or another etc.

Some things that stood out to me:

 

England and Powell have good stats, nothing wrong at all with their production. Now look at Henry Clay running back Buford. 11.2 yards per carry, on less attempts and 16 TD's. Or look at the two Scott Co running backs, Guy who is a Junior is averaging 19.5 yards a carry and 11 TD's and Price is averaging 11.9 yards a carry with 11 TD's. That is about 16 yards per carry between the two of them and 22 TD's. Look at the RB from Bullitt Central who SK has to play this week 1390 yards in 7 games and 21 TD ( that is impressive) Or look at another Junior RB in the state in Quenton Baker from Ashland has already been offered by UK similar carries avg. 10.2 YPC and 14 TD's and shares the backfield with a very nice running back in Jake Long. Or in NKY what about the WV kid William Latimore 16 YPC and 10 TD's and the Johnson Central RB with 14.3 YPC and 12 TD's.

 

My point is that there are great high school RB in the state as well as the ones in question. They are very good contributors to their teams and have helped their teams win but I can assure you there is plenty that MAY be more talented. With Powell and England being Juniors then compare them to Guy(Scott Co.) and Baker (Ashland) will be in the same recruiting class as them. Not sure how many on the previous list I posted are juniors but is something fi you truly want to compare production. Best of luck to all the guys being talked about, I am sure your team is counting on you to have a big game and help them win.

Buy a ticket and get over yourselves...

 

I'll be the first to lift up Ryle if they win. Good athletes on both sides of the ball...

Actually HB that has changed. Coaches can now send unlimited texts and or emails (I assume emails) to kids that are in their junior year. That and the fact that all they have to do is call te coach and say "have Junior call me", that's always been OK and at any age. That's how all the sophs get committed.

They will send an email that's says. Call me with their number. You can call them. They can send an email. You will know if they are interested in you. They will send hand written letters show up to your school call your head coach.

I think what some Ryle fans forget about. is the X factor. Dixies defense.

Calm down FTN. These are two good teams and it will be a great battle Friday night to many people's surprise. Dixie has played very well all year except one game and they are rightfully deserving of the #2 ranking in NKY and the favorite going in to the game. Both teams will be prepared for a physical contest. Both teams have some very good players. Looking forward to it.

Your not being recruited unless you have an offer. now that may not be the case if your an outstanding sophomore or early Jr year. If they offer you they will call txt every week and ask if you have made up your mind every week. They want to know if your coming if not on to the next kid.

You have to be registered with the NCAA clearing house, until then no coach will call you. They don't want to waste their time on somebody who wont make the NCAA minimum requirements. Once your registered you will know if someone is interested in you for sure.

Not true. They will talk to you without being cleared. They will ask about your grades. Heck offer come without being cleared.
