I thnak Dakota Benfeild and Tim Elpise from Cloudland are to of the best to ever play the sport.

 

 

 

MARK BYRD would be the best if he had played running back.

How about Rafeal Hill (99-03) from Westview!

 

If he knew how to hit someone he would have been good. Running to the outside all the time and afraid to take a hit.

Well Moore County has had three Mr. Football running backs. Todd Logan in 88. He was probaly one of the toughest players ever in class 1A. Jeff Norman in 92 who holds the state scoring record with 271 points in season, and he also kicked field goals. Brandon Wells who is second all time behind Flemming on the all time rushing list. He also holds the state record for most 100 yard games in 4 years. He would have gotten the rushing record but the coach WE HAD decided to take him out when we got ahead by 14 points of a team his jr. and sr. years . I think he was only seven or eight hundred yards behind him. I think when it comes to picking a Mr. Football the runningback picks are usually pretty good. But the lineman picks are usually the biggest and worst players, whose team has a winning record.

Scotty Whitt from Clinton had to be one of the best ones I remember he was lightning quick. And Jermaine Sheppard he played Reciever and Running Back through out his career at Clinton and was an All-American in 98'.

A little taller and he could have been an NFL LB after UT. I think he played some Arena league.

Karl Williamson-Haywood High class of 88. He was the state's leading rusher all-time until Fleming broke it.
