Chris Brooks was a good rb from Lexington.

Phoenix Johnson- Webb City
Don't know where he is now, just remember that I was very very impressed with him.

Dre Dokes- Kickapoo
Graduated from the Poo in 2002-03 or somewhere in there. Went on to Northern Iowa to play DB and last I heard, he was in the CFL, but that was 10 years ago.

Javis Vineyard- Clark County
Graduated from CC in 2009
Ran for over 4,000 yds in his junior and senior year combined.
His junior and senior year, Clark Co. compiled a 25-1 combined record.
Rushed for over 2,500 yds(averaged just under 12 yds a carry) and 43 total TDs as a senior and led Clark County to a 15-0 record and a class 2 championship victory over Maryville.
Their defense that year was also ridiculous. Maryville scored 7 points on them in the dome.
Vineyard signed with Missouri Western. I don't know what happened to him after that though.

Again have not been in the area for an extended period of time but Derrick Washington from Ray=Pec was a great high school RB that I enjoyed watching
I got to watch a few on this list and they where all impressive... But I'll never forget watching Kenyon Rasheed run the football. Absolute beast!
Then why list Zeke Elliott when he lived in Illinois clear through his high school graduation
Schwent actually.....no relation. Just like a town of 4000 people can have people name Basler not be related.
That whole family had some studs. Think there was a Hoskins boy go through late 2000s who was pretty good as well.

Because he attended high school in Missouri. But I see what you did there. Haha.
Higginsville (Lafayette Co now) had one in the 50s that was bigger than most linemen.. played college and briefly pro... Bucky Wegener
For Chillicothe, we've had a few...David White in the mid-late 80s was a triple threat... equally skilled at running, catching or throwing the halfback pass for tds. In the early mid 60s Butch Davis was a threat to score anytime he touched the ball. He played D-Back for Mizzou and for Chicago and Green Bay in the NFL

I doubt it.
If I'm correct, he led that nation last year in yards, attempts, completions, and TDs through the air.
And was top 3 in all of those categories as a sophomore as well.
Gary Anderson - Columbia Hickman (U of AR, San Diego Chargers)
Jedi May from Lathrop in the late 1990's......what might have been if he could have kept everything straight. I remember him being an absolute stud as an underclassman then pretty much disappearing.
Had to tackle him and schaffitzel my senior year. Caleb was faster and had all the stats from playing in the mid lakes but i thought webb was the better back that year. He ran my ass over then drug me for another 10 yards when we played at seneca that year
I remember Gerry Ellis from Col. Hickman, he was a man among men when he was a freshman at Jeff Jr.
Brock Olivo- St. Francis Borgia then went on to Mizzou and then on to the Detroit Lions
The biggest moment of my football career involved Brad Hocker... 6th grade youth football I caught a halfback pass from him for a touchdown. We lived and played at Drexel. The following year we both moved, me to the bright lights and big city of Blue Springs and he, just up the road to Archie. I never played organized football again as my parents guided me towards soccer and baseball.
I know he is Class 1 and all but I'm absolutely shocked no one has mentioned Kellen Overstreet from Hamilton.
Also many years ago I played against a guy from East Prarie outta the bootheel named Paris Tipler who was an awesome back. Kind of a one man team when he played us.

Brandon Perry- Boonville
Ladarrian Page- LSW
