    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    An OG Legend from around the way. Moms grew up with him and his wife Mrs. Delores. Straight from 55th & 31st. I found out he was from the hood when he made the speech when Mike Utley was paralyzed. I was reading the sports section of the Herald and he was on the front page. My mom comes outta...

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    I never went there and I'm waaay younger than you. You were there with a lotta cats from the hood I looked up to. That's the home school for my neighborhood. I went to Springs Middle but my mom would've rather die in a grease fire than let me go there(Personal beef with Dr. Bales). I grew up one...

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    Was it the CC game? That's the one time I saw him live and I walked away flummoxed by what I'd witnessed. That CC defense was filthy(Zo and Jeanty were the best DL in the county although overrated *** Willie Jones got all the pub) and he gashed the **** outta them. They woulda pulled off the...

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    Basically, dude was the prototype for the Shaun Shivers/Johnny Ford types. **** shame he had to go 1-AA. Guys like them have him and others like him to thank. Major schools couldn't keep ignoring the little guy who does nothing but kick the *** of the greatest competition in America. He might...

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    You can thank redistricting for that. Seminola and especially where I'm from, the western part of Brown Sub/Gladeview(everything between north of SR112 and NW 71st St. and 27th to 35th Ave.(The Tree Bar)) is responsible for 99.9% of the talent that comes through Springs. From cats like Freddie...

    My mom and my cousin who shall go unnamed's mom went to Springs in that era...

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    Had a feeling he did. He was in the 1300's at season's end. Then he had one of the greatest playoff performances I've ever seen, regardless of position.

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    Both are about 6'. Not skyscrapers but not midgets either. The only tall Jarvis I can think of is Jarvis Kemp but he ain't play ball out there. I think he was on that fashion wave too.

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    You know what, if he didn't he came real close due to the tear he was on during the playoffs. He ran for **** near a band in the playoffs alone...

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    Mitch is another legend from my hood. The generational guy between Freddie Miles and Willis. He wound up at Oklahoma State but I don't remember how long he lasted there...

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    Don't be, we earned that ***-whoopin' fair and square. Y'all had more talent that year, were better coached, and we still underestimated y'all. The hype was real when he was healthy. Blue Chip measurables and talent for sure. Long story short, he chose to be a **** when he coulda been a Cane...

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    **** right. I didn't know y'all played them opening round. Thought y'all played in the 2nd. Jackson probably should've went to State that year. That was an odd year, we lost to BA(even though that was more of an even match-up talent wise) and CC got upset by Plantation in the 1st round...

    Wood is Hometeam. One of the first people I got cool with when I transferred out there and one of the few on those teams that I never lost touch with...

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    Yeah I was. I'd say he was the 5th best recruit I played with on those teams behind John, 2000 guys Corey Bailey(FS who went to UiF) and Steve Harris(WR for Arkansas/Redskins) and Kenny Williams, our TE who went to Auburn in '03.

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    I can promise you that Chris Myers went to college a year before me. Remember 2000 grads played the '99 season. '01 grads played the 2000 season. Myers was a part of the freshman class that included Willis, Vilma, D.J., etc. Handy, on the other hand, did graduate our year. That **** had 20 inch...

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    Ask him if he did the next time you see him. The only questionable name of the 4 I gave is Pittman, and if he didn't he was **** close. I remember clearly that Shep and Kinsey did as well because it was discussed greatly as a way to put in perspective the dominance of Frank's season. Their...

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    Out of the old school, the main names I know are Freddie Miles(Brown Sub Legend), Elvis Peacock(my Uncle Al who played for GT and the Falcons played at Central with him), Buster Rhymes and Larry Brinson. I remember cats talking about them when I was a little kid...

    2,000 yard rushers in Dade? (question for the historians)

    My graduating class(2001) had 4. Frank, Darrell Sheppard, Corey Kinsey and Clarence Pittman all went over 2k. Frank, Shep, and Kinsey all broke the threshold in the regular season. **** that year NMB had a back named Daniel Marks(Dude was a BEAST) that went over 1800 and he couldn't get in the...
