Graham has consistently put up mind blowing numbers yet has never been rewarded with CMD or Region D POY.
Both were men among boys. Grahams stats were ridiculous no doubt. He was awarded CMD POY this year.

I am not disputing any body that is on any team be it 1st or 2nd. All those kids that I have seen play that are on this team are good football players.
It's the syndrome called "No losers", everybody gets a trophy!
Re: All-Region D Teams (football)
If they don't have the balls to say kid A is better than kid B and kid B doesn't get any recognition at all then they should just do away with it all together and not bother even making any choices. That's the problem with society today when they started all this everybody gets a trophy horse chit so Jimmy don't get his feelings hurt. Well Jimmy you need to nut up and go out and practice and get better and earn the trophy and if you work and someone is still better and gets the trophy instead guess what.........

Ahh okay I did not know that. Good for Graham, he deserves it.
Re: All-Region D Teams (football)
damn i got to looking and my name isnt on there. they listed everyone and their grandma in swva but me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: All-Region D Teams (football)
and btw should of went to Graham. when Kelly even touches the ball then we can say POY.
Re: All-Region D Teams (football)
When a back has a good game, it's because he ran well. If a back has a bad game, it's because the line didn't block. Austin Kelly very deserving of this honor!
Re: All-Region D Teams (football)
Graham did it without a whole lot of help and with each opposing team knowing he was Lee High's offense. Opposing team's game plans were setup to stop Graham yet he still put up phenomenal numbers. While Kelly is an amazing kid not every opposing team was game planning against him solely. Tyler should have been Reg. D POY.

Agreed.
Lee had very little help (but Graham's backup was pretty darn good too tho) while Kelly played on a state championship team.

He's also one of the primary reasons they were a state championship team. Without him they have another loss or two at least. When they needed a tough yard that wasn't Dotson straight up the middle for something short, guess where they went and 9 x's out of 10 got it?
