Little too early to rely on stats but who passes the "eye test" for the best RB in NEKY? My vote is Boyd's Christian Braly...........he is a dude!

Braly is the real deal...

Russell game will be a good barometer for him and the Lions on September 16th.

Josh Ford for East Carter and Buddha Brown from West Carter may not be the best but they're both really solid backs.

 

I haven't saw Braly this year but his stat line could support the claim for best back.

 

Conley from Russell is a heck of a back, as is Bailey Walker from Raceland. Warnock from Greenup is solid too.

For the uninitiated, what constitutes "NEKY"?

Short answer I guess would be everyone listed in the ADI football preview.......Ashland, Boyd, East, Fairview, Greenup, J Central, Lawrence, Paintsville, Raceland, Rowan, Russell, West, Lewis, Fleming, Bath, Morgan are all listed........anyplace else?

Thank you. Much appreciated.

If we are counting Paintsville as NEKY this right here is the answer

Conley at Russell has to be near the top this season along with Ruggles at Fairview and Braly at Boyd. Swartz for Bath County is a sophomore but will be near the top the next 2 seasons.

Nick Conley

He's nowhere near there yet, but Garrett Applegate is a sophomore at Lewis County that people should be watching out for the next couple years.
