We are only comparing how good they were in high school. That's all. Not college or Nfl careers. It takes away from the framework of the question when we add on college and Nfl credentials.
How?

Your assessment is the most accurate I've seen so far, when you talk about great backs, you have to consider several factors,coaching,O-line, opponents......then you have the next level RB.....Lil Joe, Jamal....when none of that matters!! I call it the Barry Sanders effect!!
Just my two cents oh, speaking of great RB from PA Lendon Henry makes my top 5 list.
I really like these debates, but the end all is the point you make. It's one thing to be good in high school, and yet altogether different at the college level, but to excel at all three clearly separates the best of the best....JW, and JC.....are potentially HOFers....now you are talking about the best of the best of the best!!!

Lendon Henry and elijah burkins was probably one of the best 1,2 combos coming out of PA. You had LH to bruise you and Burkins to just flat out run by you.
Yes sir...and LH had brake away speed too...

I'm a little amazed too. Hines has been very good, great at times in half a season of HS football. And I've watched him since JR high. I really like his game.
But Charles has been great at all 3 levels and is one of the best RBs in the WORLD when healthy. I think some just like to make outlandish arguments or maybe overhype. But heck, I hear people who get paid to commentate do the same thing so...
Burkins was very good in HS and had a nice game or two at Baylor. I know he had injury issues so tough to tell what could have been. Still wouldn't put him on Jamaal's level.
As far as PA running backs go, there is Jamaal and there is little Joe Washington and then you can argue about the rest after that at this point. In my humble opinion of course...
