Gainesville, Buford, Bolles,Trinity Catholic - all top 50/100 teams in the country. Yulee was lucky to be top 50/100 in Florida. He wasn't just piecin' on shallow water teams.
Gainesville at that time was a smaller school. Buford was 3A in GA. None of those schools are big.It wasn't like they were playing Grayson or Norcross

Peterson the best. Lewis was one of the best runner. LT was the best all around back. Gurley was the most talented back. McGahee was my favorite

Gainesville were ranked about 50th in the country during Henry's senior year. Buford were around 100th. Yulee had 1/100th of the talent of a large majority of schools that Henry faced.

You must be that one yes vote:usure:
I didn't vote.

He's definitely not the GOAT, and he's not even the most talented back I've seen in CF. But for what he's accomplished throughout HS/college, while maintaining this kind of dominance, he's probably the best in my lifetime.

Jamal Lewis, Travis Henry, Arian Foster. Unlike Bama, Tennessee RBs succeed in the NFL.

We'll be adding Jalen Hurd to that list soon. Future pro bowler.
Shaun Alexander was better than any of those backs.Kill yourself.

Bobby Humphrey too.Again kill yourself.

Talent wise, I can't disagree. Gainesville is crazy talented and Buford recruits

Dawg, I remember going to a track meet in HS and the dude on our 100m team was fast in his own right. Man I've never seen a cat make someone else look like they were running in slow motion. When JL was crossing the line, my mans was just hitting the 60m area....maybe. Sad part was Ty was leading after 25m
