Here is my take on it...
1.Dustin May(only by a hair)
2.Ivan Lee( is only a junior, may be the best back in the state come his senior year)
3.Daniel Harmon
4.Shawn Grimm
5.Adam Dials...
Adam Dials is a great athlete, he stays squared up at all times, keeps his feet moving, had great balance, but the one this I have picked up on, watching him in person, an on the field, he gives away when he is going to run the ball... If he is going to get the ball on the play, when he gets in his 3-point stance, he has his head up watching, if he isnt going to get the ball, he has has his head looking down at the ground, when he doesnt get the ball he goes half speed, rarely blocking...
Grimm is a dual threat back, he isnt quite as big as Dials, but he makes up for it in speed an agility. Grimm has played a much tougher schedule than Dials, an has to share carries with 2 other great backs, much like Doug howard had to in 2004...
Now for the people who say these two backs was better than Doug Howard, here are his senior season stats: 15 GAMES PLAYED (not the 11 for the other backs): 198 attempts, 2066 yards, 10.5 ypc, 13.2 carries per game, 29 rtds, scoring a td every 6.8 carries... now giving the stats Dials has he averages 27.6 carries per game, that would give him around 414 carries in 15 games, if Howard got the ball 27.6 times per game he would have ended up with around 289.8yds. per game with 4348.5 yds on the season scoring 60.8 tds. Doug Howard is by far the Best RB to come out of the mountains in a long long time.
