i would put blume and howard in the same echelon of running backs
and yes that is belfry's style to run 2 or 3 backs and it works great it just isn't everyones style jc has a proven back that can withstand the load of 30 or 30 plus carries and produces the whole game with that many touches so why not give him the ball if he is producing


i believe that belfry has the best right on in your face smashmouth running game
but i also believe that jc has a more balanced all around running game
lets not forget that belfry also had a great defense that helped win those state titles not just jones and howard in the backfield
you can have teams strickly run the ball and win titles but it is very uncommon most teams throw the ball atleast 10 to 15 times a game and some even more just to make other teams think about it and respect it
great all around teams win titles!!
i was just stating that titles don't define the best rushing attack
yards and touchdowns and ball control defines a great rushing attack!!
belfry and jc both have great running games but in my opinion jc has an all around better running games IE: options, sweeps, pitches, draws, dives, isos, slams, counters, etc.
grant it belfry is better at dives and straight on plays jc is more well rounded.

jc was in 3a during the 01 and 02 seasons then went back to 4a during the 03 and 04 seasons and dropped back down to 3a this season

i hope i clarrified what i was trying to explain
