  1. I am a big fan of Jo Byrns football and have been for a long time. Over the last 5 or 6 years there have been two running backs that have stood above the rest of the bunch. Colton Morris and LK Ashabraner are two of the best backs to ever go to thru JBS. So I ask you: Who was the better OVERALL runningback? This is not a debate over who was the better team, just the better back. Heres my take: SIZE/STRENGTH: This handsdown goes to LK. Hes bigger and stronger then Colton was. SPEED: Again this goes to LK. In a spring LK would blow past Colton. QUICKNESS: This one is really hard. I give the edge to Colton, but just barely. POWER: This is another hard one. Although Colton was smaller, he brought a huge punch when he hit somebody. Both of these guys never went backwards and always got those all important last two yards. I call this one a scratch. ELUSIVENESS: This is the key to why both of these guys are so good. Both seem to be able to avoid hits like a plague. Again this I call a scratch. VISION: This is probably the easiest category i have made. Colton had better vision then any RB I have ever seen at the HS level. He saw holes that not even a bullet could make. His ability to cut back was the best thing about his game. BALL PROTECTION: Colton did have a few fumbles in his career, but in big games or playoff games he never had one fumble in his Jr. or Sr. year. On the other hand, LK has all some small issues with ball control. Edge goes to Colton. WILL POWER: I will not even try to answer this question because both of these guys have/had an extreme will to win. They are true competitors and thats part of why they are so good. OVERALL: LK obviously has a better chance to play college ball simply bc he has much better size and speed, but the ultimate question is if you had to win one ball game at the high school level, who would you chose to be in your backfield. For me I would almost have to do pick blindly, but if I had to choose. I would put Colton Morris in my backfield bc the bigger the game the bigger he performed! What do u guys think?
