11 carries i seen against Many for 121 yards,

One run was 63 yards. Many’s defense was too much after that.
They only gave up 225 rushing yards all year.


10 carries for 58 yards is 5.8 YPC. Seems he was having a bit of success even without the 63-yard run. Think I would have run until they stopped it repeatedly if Trey wasn't hurt.

I was there watching it and regardless what the #s show many & tackett Curtis did stop holley.

On a side note why was holley lined up so far behind the Qb every play? I've never witnessed anything like that. Does he need a running start? Just asking was very odd

The answer is: High school coaches are usually stupid.

I saw Kenny Hilliard in the state championship game years ago. Every time they handed him the ball he went for at least five yards, but the coach insisted on running cute plays…and they lost.
