Top 10 Illinois RBs for 2024 high school football season
8. Robert Boyd-Meents, Sr., Paxton-Buckley-Loda
Boyd-Meents has been a special player for Paxton-Buckley-Loda over the past couple of years and became the program鈥檚 all-time leading rusher during the Panthers鈥� 2024 season-opener thanks to a 237-yard, four-touchdown performance. More games like that are likely in store for the smooth-running 5-foot-11, 200-pound halfback coming off a 2023 campaign where he earned all-state honors. Last season, Boyd-Meents put up 1,259 rushing yards and 22 rushing touchdowns, averaging nearly nine yards per carry. The talented senior also proved to be a receiving threat from the backfield with 459 yards and five additional scores through the air. The uncommitted Boyd-Meents has earned camp invites from schools like Yale and Eastern Illinois in recent months and seems poised to excel collegiately following his .
