Syracuse football 2021 RB commit Josh Hough has put forth another ridiculously impressive stat line.

Syracuse football recruit Josh Hough, a talented running back in the 2021 class for the Orange, is compiling some awfully gaudy numbers so far in his senior season of high school.

According to his Twitter page, Hough on Friday night had just six carries for 205 rushing yards and three touchdowns. That’s a monster 34.2 yards per attempt.

Hough’s team, Beaver Falls High School, defeated Mohawk Junior/Senior High School on Friday night by a count of 49-14. That result moved Beaver Falls High School, which is located in Beaver Falls, Pa., to a perfect 5-0 to date in the fall term.

On top of this latest stellar performance by Hough, in another recent game for the Syracuse football commit, he registered 243 rushing yards and three touchdowns on a mere four carries, which is amazing and almost unthinkable.

These statistics that the 6-foot-2, 235-pound Hough is tallying hopefully are getting Orange fans excited about this young man’s future in Central New York.

Syracuse football 2021 RB commit Josh Hough is doing simply wonderful things during his senior year of high school.

Based on his output at this juncture in his final stanza of high school, Rivals.com recruiting analyst Adam Friedman recently authored a column in which he examined five players from the East region, regardless of class designation, whose stock is jumping early in the 2020 campaign. Appropriately, Hough is featured in this story.

Currently, Rivals.com has rated Hough as a two-star prospect, although given what Friedman is saying about the ‘Cuse commit, Hough should see his ranking improve with this recruiting service.

ESPN.com presently arranges Hough as three stars, No. 96 at his position within the 2021 recruiting cycle, and No. 30 in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

Also a three-star player via 247Sports and the 247Sports Composite, Hough is placed at No. 1,795 overall, No. 115 at running back and No. 38 in Pennsylvania, according to the 247Sports Composite.

Meanwhile, 247Sports itself slots Hough as the No. 77 running back nationally in the 2021 class, as well as the No. 28 prospect in Pennsylvania.

If he continues to generate these other-worldly rushing numbers, Hough will keep on rising up the national rankings from various recruiting services, and I can’t wait to see him on the Hill in fewer than 12 months.
