Nvm he is now first in the nation with 244 carries. Kephart was listed with only 74 carries. This is insane

TAHS92Alum - There are 29 running backs with 200 or more carries in the Nation. He only has more yards than FOUR of those 29.

I all for riding a horse if you have one, but that many carries kinda makes the game plan for the opposition easy.

Just as a sidebar but there is no way of knowing how he actually stacks up nationally in carries because max preps only compares schools that submit their own stats. In theory you could be comparing him to only 5 or 10% of schools nationally. I'm not discounting your point that he has a lot of carries just trying to point out facts.

That's probably the game plan of teams that play Portage and many other teams. Stop their main running back.
That doesn't work so well against all teams does it?
