5A Mr.Football

[phishhead]

Who do you guys think are the frontrunners for 5a Mr.Football?

 

Abe Felix jumps to mind, but I don't know any stats?

 

Turner @ Blackman and Henry @ Riverdale would be, but injuries knock them out.

 

Who else? Stats?

[just1np]

Chance Johnson, QB-Gallatin

475 yards rushing on 63 attempts (7.7 a carry), 6 TDs

344 yards passing on 19 completions, 39 attempts, 6 TDs, 4 INTs.

819 total yards, 12 TDs.

 

R.J. Meadows, RB-Beech

423 yards rushing on 91 attempts(4.7 a carry), 6 TDs.

279 yards receiving on 13 catches (21.5 a catch), 2 TDs.

702 total yards, 8 TDs.

I'd bet on Abe Felix taking it home. Contenders being Josh Reffegee of Franklin and Austen Everson of Brentwood.

Dont forget Meadows also has over 294 yards in punts returns and 2 td's and 356 yards in kickoff returns. That gives him 1352 total yards and 10 td's. Also to mention his 4 int's on defense. Hes also thrown for over 50 yards and 2 td passes.

Thanks bucs!

I didn't think of that.

 

I'd love to see a Sumner Co. guy get it this year!

Cumberland County has a fullback that has rushed for 946 yards on 99 attempts for a 9.6 yd per carry average. he also has 7 catches for 85 yds. with 16 total Touchdowns through 7 games.

A lot of season left - 3 regular season and 5 playoff games.

 

However, Austen Everson of Brentwood already has 420 Rushing and 930 passing for 1,350 total yards (according to Tuesday's Tennessean) compared to Gallatin's QB-Johnson at 435 + 347 = 782 total. (As a Junior, Everson had over 900 and 1800 - so he's on track for similar numbers.) Both Teams will probably meet again this year.

 

Who is Abe Felix and what are his stats?

[boneal52]

Abe Felix is the TB at Houston. Last season was a finalist who had 373 carries for 2,601 yards and 27 trips to the endzone. Through October 5th this year, he had 155 carries for 1,091 yards and 17 scores. With a team that will go deep in the playoffs, he will have many more nights to @@@@ up yards.

6'0 Senior RB/QB Ooltewah

 

152 carries for 1052 yards 12 td's rushing, 40 for 80 for 480 yards and 3td's passing

[Blazeman63]

Zach Gilliam of Blackman for the linemen mr. Football. Of course, I am biased.

The Fri., October 18th edition of the Memphis Commercial Appeal has Abe Felix listed as the Shelby County/Metro area leading rusher. Through 7 games he has amassed 1,325 yards on 184 carries giving him a 189.3 YPG average. He's scored 20 TD's through these seven games.

 

Personal note: I've seen this young man play every time I go to the Whitehaven/Houston game. He carried the ball 47 times for 238 yds in this years game. He's not a big guy, about 5'-8" and 165 lbs +/-, and that's being liberal on his height. He's as quick as an alley cat and fast as lightning. He's a whole lot stronger then he appears and he's a very durable RB. He runs up the middle very effectively as well as around the corner. Barring injury, look for some more big numbers from Felix.
