NKY Running Backs 2015

[sportsfan2012]

Good luck to all the backs and hope they all stay healthy all season.

 

Agreed!! It's gonna be an exciting year with all the talent in that position this year!

[Hellbird]

TCA is gonna have something to say about that.

Couldn't agree more. It's funny how easy it is for everyone in this thread to forget about the RB that led the entire area in rushing last year...and that was coming off a broken leg also. Keep selling TCA short folks. Don't be surprised if he sneaks up on you all while your looking at all

the other RB's.

He needs to play against the big boys first.

he did.

Cooper struggled running the ball against SK, Dixie and Campbell County.

There you go again.

Against the big boys you seem to leave out a few key facts.

Againat Ryle he ran for 106 yards. They are big boys right?

 

Against another 6A school in Boone he ran for 166 yards.

 

Against SK when the entire te

was banged up

he only had 4 carries and against Dixie which was the last game of the season and didn't matter as mostly backups played to save them for the playoffs he only had 4 carries. So keep belittling him. We know you hate Cooper, it's a jealousy thing with you. Funny how you talk up other RB's

from smaller schools who did nothing against Cooper last year but Cooper who played basically a 6A schedule

last year you can never give them any credit and say he can't do anything against 6A teams.

So typical.

 

whats even funnier is you put Armstrong down everytime you talk about him and say he didn't play against anyone yet SK's cupcake schedule was about the easiest schedule in all of NKY the last couple years and is where your boy got all his yards yet he still

couldnt gain as many yards rushing as Armstrong who played a much tougher schedule.

[Hellbird]

He needs to play against the big boys first.

Again you feel it is fine to try and belittle a kid in here. The reason you do so? It's because he led the area in rushing last year, that means more yards than you're very own SK RB.

You claim he hadn't played against the big boys yet he scored more TD's against a couple common opponents both teams played in Boone and Ryle where Armstrong had more TD's against them

than your boy did. Then there were a couple other common opponents of NCC and Conner where your boy only had a total of 35 yards rushing combined while Armstrong had over 300 yards rushing in those two games.

 

So do me a favor and stop bashing a kid simply because he finished ahead of your SK boy, who by the way is one of the areas best also.

 

Never understood how one can feel good about themselves after

bashing a high school kid, especially by an adult like yourself.

 

This is area has great RB's who were all underclasses last year. Do me a favor and simply acknowledge that and move on.

That about sums it up.

There was talk earlier this spring about college potential for many of these guys being talked about in here. Can anyone give us an update without all of the baloney that goes with it.

I don't know Smiths numbers, but I think the only one that may get a DI offer may be Colin England due to his measurables but he may play a different position at the next level if he does play DI. It's tough though unless they already for offers that any may end up DI if no offers yet. Usually they come JR year or shortly after the season so if no offers yet they may be going most probably NAIA or DII or III.

 

Not saying none will go DI, some can definitely go to a school that doesn't offer full rides

such as Dayton etc. but full rides for DI this late would be a surprise unless they already have some offers. Most DI schools look to JR years to target players such as RB's.

 

All of them can definitely play in college. Just depends on what level.

I'd say the silence tells you all you need to know.

Well both the Holy Cross RB's are 225lbs Jr's so this is a pivotal year in their recruiting chances.

Jacob Smith is still being recruited by Ohio U, Ohio Dominican, EKU, ISU, Southern Illinois and Morehead State.

Jacob Smith is still being recruited by Ohio U, Ohio Dominican, EKU, ISU, Southern Illinois and Morehead State.

So he has offers from those schools? I hope so, but we all have learned that your definition of "recruited" and the true meaning of being recruited are two entirely different things.
