Top Running Backs in NC

I told ya'll Baker's the best. There might just a few faster but there are none that bring the total package of speed, strength, footwork and field vision as Toney Baker. Damn I am looking forward to watching him for two more years at Ragsdale.

these are post combine rankings from NCHSFootball.com. They have Baker ranked #2 player in the state in their preseason elite 101 behind only Demario Pressley, Dudleys monster defensive lineman.



Player High School Ht Wt 40 Yr Notes
1 Toney Baker Ragsdale, Lucy 5-10 205 TB/LB Jr Not only did Baker rush for over 2000 yards and scored 32 TDs, but he ran a 4.5 40-yard dash, ran a 4.05 shuttle, verticaled 33", and benched 185 25 times
2 George Bell Britt, Jack 5-11 225 RB Sr Posted 575 yards and 7 TDs while only playing in 4 games!
3 Jamaal Edwards Dudley, James B. 6-0 195 RB Sr Ran a 4.37 40-yard dash and verticaled 38" at Charlotte's combine
4 Andre Brown Rose, Junius H. 6-1 1/2 211 RB/DB/PR/KR Sr Rushed for over 2100 yards with a 7.66 average
5 John McEachin Trinity 5-10 188 RB Sr Ran a 4.52 forty at Rushed for over 2300 yards
6 Tony Leath Cummings, Hugh M. 5-8 165 RB/DB Sr Averaged 8.80 yards per carry and scoring 18 TDS as he helped Cummings win the State Championship
7 Travis Padgett Crest 5-9 170 RB Jr Despite splitting time with Littlejohn averaged 7.81 yards per carry and ran in 17 TDs

10 Joe Brown South Point 6-1 200 FB Sr Recorded over 1700 yards rushing plus 30 TDs

 

He's not on the list but sophmore Brandon Jackson from Burns will be by the time he's a senior. He's very strong and athletic.

 

Your boy Toney the Tiger is bad news Wossa, but you know I've gotta go with Travis speed, speed, speed Padgett.

 

which one is the future seminole?

 

None of the above, these are Tarheel backs.

hey smash have you checked out Baker's video clips over there.

Baker's got some jets too

 

I've seen him up close and in person so I know he's the real deal. He was even the topic of some conversation at Crest practice the other day. Most of the gentlemen on the hill believe he's a pro quality back.
