I think I alluded to this in my post.

You obviously haven't watched Hensley enough if you don't think he'd do the same as Thomas with the same number of touches against the Bell Co opponents.

As for Thomas, your mountain bias has gone berserk if you think he would get 5000 yards in the LCA offensive scheme. Yes, he would benefit from the balanced attack, but his touches would be limited just like Hensley's. All against much tougher competition. It's laughable to state he would average 21.3 yards per carry against that schedule. Come on man!

I'd expect the statistics to look almost the same if they swapped teams. It's a credit to both of them. To say it's not close shows more bias, because it is close. The national record puts Thomas in exclusive company. Outperform Hensley's game against CAL on Saturday (see stats in earlier post) should sway the voters too.

I saw where another poster said Thomas never comes off the field for Bell County and 3rd on the team in tackles. According to KHSAA, Hensley has 1 tackle on the year. I don’t think this is talked about nearly enough when comparing players. I mean heck, to run for 3,000 yards is one thing, but to do it while playing every snap on defense is something else. To me, it’s a no brainer.
