Major Flaws in Your Arguement:
1. Doug Howard was a WHITE player too
2. Doug and Dave = 2 State Titles, Fugate=0
3. Doug was substantially faster and equally strong as Fugate, if not stronger
4. Jones may be the fastest RB to ever come out of EKY, Fugate will never be mentioned in the same breath as him speed wise.
5. Jones had a UK offer on the table right after his Junior year, he was also heavily pursued by Ohio State, Auburn, and Virginia Tech.
6. Howard suffered a serious back injury DURING his season at Pikeville in which he started as a Freshman, I pray Fugate doesn't suffer a similar injury.
7. Howard had offers for larger schools such as Marshall and WKU but chose to stay close at home.
8. How can Channing have more potential then an ALl SEC Freshman who started at two different positions over the course of his career and still has a shot of playign Pro football.

Take off your blue tinted glasses.

If i am not mistaken Howard played against Breathitt's Justin Haddix he went on and made a good College player as Quaterback and won 2-a state championship were did Howard go,so yes Channing is as good as either one of these players and time will only tell,Channing is a quality athlete as was these other players but he has lots more than these others his size and anyone that watched him has to see/know this.
Maybe you just might have RED color glasses on if you can't see this did you ever think that,yes BLUE and RED are not bad colors but we do like both colors not just RED.
