Probably in the minority here, but I dont think either one is the best back at Russell. The lack of competition they played, really hurts them in my opinion. when they did play some decent teams, usually didnt have good games. Personally I think Ray Clark had the most talent of any back. Ran for over 1000 yds, on exactly 100 carries his senior year. Also, ran for 100+ yd games against Boyle Co, Parkersburg, Wheelersburg, Lex Cath. Other than him I still feel Jeff Frazier or Mike Jones were better all around backs. Its not either one of their faults they had to play 7 weak district games every year, so they couldn't schedule more quality opponents to showcase their talents. Plus after Lex Cath and Boyle moved up to 3A, it kinda left 2A a lot weaker. You know you had to be **** good to beat either of those teams.

I wasn't even going to respond to this crap but then I changed my mind. It always seems like you are downgrading someone at Russell, either the coaches or the players. To say the Kasey Clark didn't have good games against good teams is just complete BS and to say Josh Gross and Kasey were not two of the best backs ever at Russell is BS too. I seem to remember Kasey leading the way to a state title and then a runner-up finish the next year. Russell's district schedule over the past few years has not been the strongest, nor the weakest, but Russell has played some very good teams in the playoffs over the past few years. I'm not going to sit here and list Kasey and Josh's stats for you because they speak for themselves and the last person they have to prove anything to is you but to say that they were not two of the best backs in Russell history is just complete BS!!!
