I can't even pick the best HIGHLANDS back from the list, much less choose one that includes the likes of Farris, Simpson, et al... :isurrender:

I think Simpson and Farris would be my 1 & 2. I also think Josh Conner would be in the conversation if not for the injury problems.

Josh Conner was eerily similar to Chris Kelly. Same build, same mentality. Both were excellent running backs.

Miles get's my vote. Kramer seemed pretty good/very shifty, Farris was just a horse, but in my opinion Simpson was just able to do it with such fluidity that at times it didn't even look like he was working for it. He was fun to watch.

Merry Christmas Travis Elliot fans!

 

 

 

Josh Conner was much faster and much quicker than Chris Kelly IMO

Simpson was the best and i don't think it's close.

Just wondering why Vince Murray from the 06 Ryle team isnt on this list, he was a very good runner and is still playing fullback for Navy

In my opinion, had Josh Conner not been hurt his senior year, without a doubt would have been Mr Football.

I think alot of people thought the same thing about Collinsworth as well as Simpson, both of which still finished with monster years.

Nice list of RBs. I'd have to go with Simpson, Farris and Kramer.

This is a good list of runningbacks, but I believe Simpson is the best.

Having seen both live I don't agree

Josh ran a 4.52 at the Under Armor combine going into his senior year, on rivals it has Chris running a 4.67

I don't care about 40 times. I care about on the field and there was not that much of a difference in their game speed.
