Dixion from Belfry. His numbers would be ridiculous if he played more than half the game. He is averaging 14yds per carry. Every time he touches the ball is a highlight.

Dixon is a great, great player.  But he did have to play a full game in, I would think, at least 3 games: Pikeville, Johnson Central and North Hardin.  In those games he rushed 50 times for a total of 347 yards (6.9 yards per carry) and 3 touchdowns.  He also added one reception for 68 yards and a touchdown.  Those are very good numbers--but they aren't completely dominant.   He's been very good against Belfry's best competition, but not great.  My vote, if I had one, would go to Hergott.

The biggest case for Hergott is that this is a career award, and he's been one of the best players in the state since his sophomore year. Couple that with his senior season in which he racked up arguably the best stats in the state even against top competition, and it'll be tough for the voters to go against him.

Not taking away anything from any of the other candidates, but he would get my vote.

Side note, without naming names, what do you guys think the chances are that a player from Breathitt Co. gets a vote?

I mean, that is one of the most sought after recruits in the entire state.
