Does Silsbee have any good rbs in the lower grade levels? Haven't seen a true great back since Spearman and Mark Farr. Of course I didn't see the Tigers play for like 7 years.

Silsbee has a freshman QB and RB that IMO will start next year on varsity. The RB is another Spearman, Floyd Spearman. The QB could be another Jeremy Johnson. He is already '6"2 and plays like JJ.

Hmm is this one of that freshman bball team?  If so what are the chances he ends up on the varsity this year?

Not likely, but maybe for playoffs.

Best Backfield due was Doss, Dill, Airline 89-90
[/quote]

Nope.

I would put the trio of '77 QB Jasper Lewis and RB's William Graham and Poochie Arline and the '93 trio of QB Sedrick Spearman, RB's Jay McGuire and Stanley Rhone ahead of those three.




BTW BADSANTA, where's my $1000 bucks?

1 Lewis Graham  Arline
2 Doss  Dill  Arline
3 Spearman McGuire  Rhone

te]I second that AAW. I did not get to see McGuire and Rhone, but the duo of Artie Shankle and Derek Shelton was pretty darn good as well. Both D1 running backs.

Who would you vote the best WR? Sid Wilson?
[/quote]


Nope. William Garrett or Desmond Doss. William Garrett went on to play in the NFL for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Desmond Doss is still to this day the only Silsbee athlete to be named district MVP in both football and basketball in the same year.

anybody could have beat up on 3A kids... remember who played when we where  4A ...then dropped down to 3A... buna orangefield hardin jefferson... the best running back #9 jay mcguire
[/quote]

As far as the runningbacks are concerned, no one has mentioned any of the runningbacks that played since Silsbee went down to 3A.

The top backs mentioned were McGuire, Shankle, Shelton, Graham, Hunter, Arline, Spearman, Price and others that were mentioned all played while Silsbee was 4A.

So, what's your point?

I did not get to see many of the backs that you have mentioned however McGuire is the best back I have seen since I arrived in Silsbee 20 years ago. I would also consider Sid Wilson along with Desmond Doss to be one of the two best receivers of the past 20 years.

the year Graham, Airline, and Lewis played there were 11 teams in the district, that's 10 district games with teams like Jasper, Cleveland, BC, Crosby, Hebert.  There was no easy week and they produced every week.  You'll never see a backfield like that again.

That o-line on that team wasn't too shabby neither, was it fishing862? ;) ;D
