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!!!

I just spoke on my opinion, I'm not always downgrading everyone, I said they were good, I just felt that the teams they played kinda hurts them in my eyes as far as ranking them as all time best. Stats don't mean anything when your playing Estill,Lewis, Powell,Morgan,East,West, and one other but I can't remember. All very weak teams, coach Mcglone could probably still run for 100yds on them with our team blocking for him. Lone Oak's QB set the national record for Td's, so I guess he's the best all time. He's probably not even top 50 in the nation this year. So stats don't mean a whole lot when the competition is weak. They were tremendous ball players, and Im glad to have watched them play. Glad they represented Russell well. Just because I don't feel they are the best backs of all time to ever put on pads, doesn't mean I'm downgrading the players.
