My Mr. Football Ballots....

[GreenMan]

I would agree with oldcat12, Joseph Ruddle is having a phenominal year, but hes a junior, and juniors dont get the edge like seniors. I would vote for Ruddle or Colt Risner if I could vote.

Grant Allen. Sr at Dickson County

Recieving 478 yards on 24 rec. 3 TD's

Great special teamer to

[rebfan65]

Brian Kissell-Obion Central over 1400 all purpose yards 15 TD's.

Crockett County Earnest Williams........1,138 yards 16 td's......plenty of yards left to go!!!

Ernest only played the first half in three of his eight games, too. I haven't seen everyone in West TN, but 101.5 out of Jackson has covered Milan, Huntingdon, JCM, South Side, North Side etc... and they say he's the best back they've seen all year.

Earnest williams is a great all a round athlete. He is deceiving with his quickness and is also a great defender in the secondary.

[DelTavian]

I need some more help on this folks. Please add players and stats.

I like Byrd from Cloudland. I don't care who they play he has awesome numbers.

Line is a little harder. the best I have seen on tape or person are the tackle (I think 79) and guard # 58 from Wayne County.

Grant Allen will not win Mr.Football because he wont have a thousand yards rushing or receiving. He is though one of the most valuable to his team without a doubt anywhere in the state. Grant exemplifies everything that a coach could want. He is one of the biggest all around threats on both sides of the ball and opposing coaches will back me up on that. He has 450+ rushing and receiving as well as currently leading the state in interceptions. Special teams are also a key ingredient to his arsenal where he returns kick-offs. That stat has began to drop however because teams will not kick it to him anymore. Above all Grant is a special person who always smiles and is a proud christian. He wants to be a missionary when he is finished with school.

I am assuming that you might pull for the Hillsboro team just a little bit. They do have a nice program.

Through week 9:

 

3A BACK - Earnest Williams (6'0, 185 RB/DB), Crockett County

 

Rushing:

124 attempts / 1273 yards - 10.27 yd/att

 

18 TD

 

Receiving:

10 receptions / 205 yards - 20.5 yd/rec

 

3 TD

 

Returns:

4 returns / 117 net yards

 

2 TD

 

Defense:

24 solo tackles, 9 assists, 1 Interception

 

Look at the stats and you will see, that one out of every six times Earnest gets the football, he scores a TD. Wow!

 

Despite the amazing stats, Earnest has played in most games a maximum of 3 quarters, in some he was limited to less time. Earnest is a senior and is being recruited by: (in no particular order) Auburn, Tennessee, Ole Miss, Arkansas, and Arkansas St.

 

Earnest also starts on the basketball team for Crockett Co. He ran a reported 4.5 at an Ole Miss football camp this summer (without warming up).
