Westsider, Who? Give me 5 backs that put up better numbers in the areas I mentioned? I agree that players can put up big numbers against lesser opponents so tell me who did, give me better numbers by 5 people who had at least 5,000 total yards career and say at least 75 td's? I hope your right.. I love to learn about these players, but I just don't know allot of numbers that stack up against these.

Westsider, I agree 100%, but for West to not be considered one of the top 5 all time is crazy!

Shaun Alexander VS Mike West? Yds per carry West - 12.99 Alexander - under 11 Yards per game West - 212.5 Alexander - 211.3 Rushing Touchdowns career per carry West - 93 -one TD for every 8.15 rushes - or .122 TD's per carry Alexander - 105 - one TD for every 9.64 rushes - or .103 TD's per carry So basically Mike West gained more yardage per carry and scored more touchdowns per carry! he had almost 25% less carries over his career and had to share the ball in 98 and 99 with Gerred Parker who is the states all-time leader in recieving yards and scored around 52 TD's himself. So the way I see it is less opportunity but better production equals a slighter better high school back...... I personally like some of the great Belfry backs, but even Belfry fans won't argue West was better after he put up 414 yds against them..

I believe that Coach Goldsmith went to Coal Grove? He ended up playing at a pretty good Morehead team with some QB named "Phil Simms". Goldsmith has helped build this program back up once. He'll do it again. He just needs some time.

Lawrence vs Belfry I think that's in week 2?

I agree with MH.. It's funny how EVERY high school has at least 1 kid with 4.3 or 4.4 speed yet the NFL combine only has 5 to 10 each year? But I know that every one of you will say that they were "timed" and it's legitimate. So I guess they all get slower in college?

Did Grimm from Johnson Central have 2,600 yards rushing last year?

7 - Rockcastle 5 - Knox 3 - Ashland 2 - Allen Central 1 - Corbin TB - Allen Central
