Help! Looking for info on a player from Bonham

[gamepix]

Hi,

I am a HS football fan in Indiana and I keep hearing about a kid from Bonham named Kimbrough. He has posted on a board that I monitor in Indiana and he claims to have the following stats:

bench-265
squat-385
powerclean-270
incline-230
40 yd-4.36
(football season 2001)
carries-98
tds-35
yards-2,396

Can anyone confirm or deny these stats? I can't seem to find anything on him.

Thanks a lot!

I would like to contact someone at Bonham(the football coach, maybe) and ask them too.

Would you happen to have his email addy?

I checked the district 11-3A stats and checked box scores for every Bonham game this last year, and that name does not appear anywhere.

Thanks guys! I really appreciate your quick responses.

By the way Gamepix, welcome to our board. Hope you will visit during next football season. It does get lively and the closer to the playoffs it sometimes gets brutal. Lot of very knowledgeable folks here. Anyhow I get wordy sometime. Welcome

Hi Guys,

I have one more favor to ask.

Can you get me the scores from all of the Bonham games for the 2000 and 2001 seasons? The reason that I ask is that this Kimbrough guy has gotten a bit abusive because I questioned his credentials. I mentioned that you guys have never heard of him and that I don't think his stats are for real.

His reply to me was:

"Check this out for one reason those idiots probably haven't heard about me is because Bonham seems to be the team everyone tries to underdog. But I got news for you why would I have to lie about being one of the best runningbacks here if I wasn't."

You can see the actual post if you go to the following URL:

I thought you might like to help me prove this guy wrong. What I am focusing on is his claim to have scored 35 touchdowns. That seems to be a tremendous number for a kid who is just a junior. Did Bonham even score 35 touchdowns the past two seasons? What's even more incredible is that his yards per carry average is 24.4 (98 rushes for 2,396 yards).

Any information you can provide to prove that this person is a fake would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks guys!

gamepix here is the site for the complete stats for Bonham.
http://dallasnews.statsonline.com/football/01/stats/overall98.shtm

bonham had a fairly decent team this year. finished 8-3 and made the playoffs. they were eliminated in the first round. dont recall anybody putting them down this year at all. Their only loses this year were to Forney, one of the best teams in the state whose only loss was to the Div I state champs, and to Commerce the Div II state champs, and a playoff loss to Crandall.
Bonham as a team scored 37 tds 20 of them by a player named terel king.
the lad you mention is a wanabee.
