The best running back in the state this year has got to Dewayne Caldwell of Ooltewah High School. The kid is only a Junior and this is his first year starting. He has right at 1,200 yards and 9 TD's in only 5 games. The most impressive stat though, has to be that the Ooltewah Owls, who were 3-7 last season, are now 5-0 looking at 7-0(Bradley Central and Heritage are next) heading into a fantastic late season match up with Soddy Daisy. Dewayne is lightning in a bottle, and has the ability to take it to the house on EVERY play.

I think I'm gonna have to put this on every RB post until anyone realizes that Chris Johnson is a very good back. He has started all 3 years of high school. He's had some trouble staying healthy, but he's feelin good this year and had 233 yards rushing last week, followed by a school record 264 yards rushing, 4 TD's this week(309 all-purpose). I think he should be considered as not only one of the top junior running backs in Tennessee, but one of the best running backs period. I would like to see this kid from Ooltawah play, he sounds like a player.

It has to be Bobby Council of Pearl-Cohn, he was a 1400 yard back as a sophmore, who else has done that.

Well the last RB to my knowledge that rushed for 1400 yards in a season was rafeal hill. when he was a sophmore he rushed for, i think, a little over 2000 yards. Without a doubt the best junior RB in tennessee is markei guy for westview. Against Obion county he had 297 yds on just 22 carries. he had 353 all purpose yards that game. He dominated humbolt, and he rushed for over 270 yds and had 6 touchdowns against the #1 team in the state, Huntington. I think in the last 3 games he has rushed for a little over 800 yards. cdm2003 name me a junior rb this year that has scored 6 touchdowns against the #1 team in the state.

    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
    • I'm from Cloudland and we've never played a sectional game.  We need to win tomorrow night to avoid that bus ride.  Us and north greene can play with you guys so I'm expecting good games whoever the matchup is.
