High School Record for Career Touchdowns
I don't follow anything but pro football, but I heard a stats about a fellow named Johnathan Gray, who is a freshman at the University of Texas this year.
He apparently set the high school career record for touchdowns last year, with 205. 205 touchdowns? Really? Wow. His senior year, he scored 70 touchdowns. 65 rushing, 5 receiving, in 16 games. So he averaged 4.4 touchdowns per game. (And interestingly, that wasn't a single-season record, which stands at 71.) I can't find his other years' stats, but if he played 16 games every season, he averaged 3.2 touchdowns per game for four years. His senior year, he ran the ball 346 times for 3906 yards, averaging 11.3 yards per carry and 244 yards per game. He added 21 receptions for another 480 yards, averaging 22.9 yards per receptions. I guess his coach decided to ride the best horse to victory, but that seems insane in many ways. Insane in how often he was used, and insane in his production. It'll be interesting to see if he can keep up the pace in college. |

Meh. /cp
I watched over half that video (pretty boring). I never really saw him plant his foot and change direction at all... of course he didn't really have to or anything. He just looks like a sprinter; upright and fast as ****.

He made some good runs, but you're right that a lot of those long touchdowns were flat-out sprints through massive holes. Maybe that's just how long touchdowns typically work, though.

I really like the offensive lineman who dives to tackle the ankle of the would-be defender at the :44 second mark. Uhh...yeah, that's not legal.

HS football in Texas IS insane.
I was recently down there attending my Grandson's HS graduation and saw a HS football stadium that would do many Div 1 Universities proud. |

Who's that freshman QB for TXAM? Forget his name but they put his HS stats up on the TV screen in between plays and I remember thinking "holy shit".
Texas HS football is indeed insane.

Yeah, I watched them play the Gators last week. He looked great the first half and I thought to myself there's our QBOTF but they stunk it up the second half. I take him right now over Cassel though. He's gonna be good.

He better come out early. I'm sure Texas is going to run him to death. That's a ridiculous number of carries for a HS player.

His Rivals profile:
http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/footbal...an-Gray-103880 BTW: Even better stat line for Mizzou's incoming quarterback, Maty Mauk: 382/566, 5,413 yds passing, 68 TDs. In addition he had 241 carries for 1,768 yards and 24 more touchdowns. That's right - over 7,000 yards of total offense and a staggering 92 touchdowns. And he wasn't much worse than that in 2010 when he threw for 5600 yds, 69 TDs and rushed for 16 more. He's the most prolific quarterback in HS football history.
