mypooh Posted July 30, 2012 Report Posted July 30, 2012 [quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="1240590" timestamp="1343611207"]Sticking with just southeast Texas players (that is the title of the thread, but knew some would bring up other names), there have been many very good running backs from SETX, but not sure if you could call them great. Wooster, Byerly, Rodney Thomas of Groveton and maybe a couple of others could be considered great running backs.The best one game performance by a local running back that I have ever seen was by Silsbee's Jay McGuire in '93. He rushed for 464 yards and 6 TD's against Nederland. He had over 600 all-purpose yards that night. (rushing, receiving, returns).[/quote]Easily the best I saw I couldn't believe it when it was over.

Slam14 Posted July 30, 2012 Report Posted July 30, 2012 In order...(Gold , Silver, Bronze) 1. Joe Washington 2. Jeff Bergeron 3. Anthony Byerly
Cat22 Posted July 30, 2012 Report Posted July 30, 2012 Best I played against was Dexter Hebert of Kelly. I remember watching Anthony Byerly as a kids, he was great. Also Butch Hadnot of Kirbyville, he was a stud!
songone Posted July 30, 2012 Report Posted July 30, 2012 Rodney Thomas - GrovetonDo anyone remember a back named Undre' Dishman - Corrigan 88'-90'
MBaller#1 Posted July 30, 2012 Report Posted July 30, 2012 Jay McGuire was the man I was there when jay had that historic night , also when they beat Wo-s after Kendall Cleveland had a 93 yard run for a touchdown , jay followed with a 101 yard kickoff return for a touchdown and he ran over Wo-s that game he was an awesome running back.
shorttexas1 Posted July 30, 2012 Report Posted July 30, 2012 Yeah Jamal was a beastShanderrick Charles is forgotten but was a joy to watch... He had a mean stiff arm for a little dude.Leeland McElroy was a blazeChristin Michaels
Cheermom4 Posted July 30, 2012 Report Posted July 30, 2012 [quote name="Bulldog92" post="1240602" timestamp="1343615604"]Reggie Davis- Jasper...but I also remember a guy on PNG's '89 team that ran all over Jasper in the playoffs in Pasadena. It seemed like he ran the ball every play of the fourth quarter to ice that game for them after they took a big lead early. We couldn't stop him for anything. Do you Indian fans remember him?[/quote]I think that guy could have been Ron McGill but I could be wrong.
mypooh Posted July 30, 2012 Report Posted July 30, 2012 James Johnson form Port Arthur Jefferson / PAM wasn't to bad either.

Are you contending that the College Station area as well as Aledo are considered to be part of Southeast Texas? Just answer yes or no and then i'll understand more about your comprehensional abilities. ;D
Guest ECBucFan Posted July 30, 2012 Report Posted July 30, 2012 As far as this site and discussion is concerned, yes. Now before you scoff, realize that Iola and Anderson Shiro are definitely in the College Station area. Look it up for yourself. Aledo? It depends. Carthage, Center, and Grapeland are now included, perhaps Aledo in the near future. Personally, I define SETX as south of 190 from Jasper to Livingston, and east of 59 and 146.
