Tom142 Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 I know this threads about most talent, but if you were to say the runnigback that meant the most to his team you'd have to say Chase Tipton of Heritage. Back in 2001 Heritage won 1 game, just one. The game they won though was against state power Oak Ridge, and if I can recall he had over or close to 300 yards rushing, I mean this kid was almost literally the whole team, he had like 47 or 48 carries. Without Chase, Heritage would've been blown out that game, and beat even worse than they were that season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsc7 Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 How about Rafeal Hill (99-03) from Westview! 825284497[/snapback] Yeah I still wish he played football, but instead quit to play baseball. He had a game with APSU last year were he had 8 carries for 174 yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsc7 Posted August 12, 2004 Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Tremaine turner of springfield(95-98) definately has to be considered. He broke all the records at a school that has a rich tradition of great running backs Ricky Chatman, Micheal Thomas, and chico gardner just to mention a few. He played in a great region at the same time as folks like santonio Beard and John Henderson and the teams knew he was getting the ball almost every time because of a nonexisting passing game.

Purple & Gold Standard Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Mario McElrath--Union City Best game by a back that I ever saw was Terrance Bell of Huntingdon going over,through and around David Lipscomb in the Class 2A State Championship game last year...Over 300 yards and 6 td's in a state championship game? Please! Mario would be at a Nebraska or Tennesee now had he not gotten in trouble with the law.Sad Story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tater Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Sneaky if you remember Amad Galloway, you must remember Darneice Wherry from Munford. He ran for 356 yards against you guys in the 1997 playoffs at Munford. Johnny Jones was a good one in high school and at UT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNT Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 George "Dutchy" Parker---Alcoa 1979 or 1980 not sure rushed for over 2300 yards his senior year. Albert Davis SR Alcoa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarshPitManiac Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 I have not read all the little opinions people have on here, but i think Al Davis Jr. and Kory Conner, both from Alcoa, are two of the best running backs in the states history!

sportsradiotn Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Anyway, back to the subject at hand...one of the best backs I've seen play is Clarksville Northeast/Tennessee HB Travis Stephens. In the 1995 BA-Northeast classic 5A Quarters showdown, Stephens carried the NE offense. Even though they couldn't scape the endzone paint (BA won 7-3), he got them close on several occasions. 825284919[/snapback] I second that motion. I saw Stephens play against Henry County that year. He was amazing. He exploded with speed as soon as he touched the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
constance Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Marcus Gildersleve was a better back than Stephens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyreb Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Jackie Pope at Oak Ridge definitely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
