Adam Jude quote
I say BULLSHIT. Give him a chance. I'd rather he get 20 carries than to split time with D. Washington.

Why is he out there without the knee - brace if not to be ridden like the Polk and Sankey if yesteryear?

Put Cyler Miles at running back, too.

Wylde Swede needs reps at RB.

Dwayne Washington looked quite a bit different on his limited carries against UCLA. I'd like to get him some more carries.
They have wasted this season without giving enough reps to the 3 backs (Coop, DW, Coleman). I know they can't give every guy 15+ carries a game but none of these guys have had enough reps to improve. DW has the physical attributes, Coleman was a 4* back and scout team player of the year when he redshirted. He had decent games against Cal and Stanford. Cooper has made plays in his limited opportunities dating back to last year. Pick a fucking guy and make him the feature back. They need to figure out what they have for next year. They haven't done that. -
Coop, DW and Coleman did not consistently run hard early in the year. We were then treated to UW's version of beast mode, and we saw what right looked like. Then Coleman and DW got hurt, and forced our hand. Last game, on the few touches he had, DW ran hard. And Coop has been productive for the past few games. Well see on Coleman.
In the perfect world, 2 of the 3 can step it up so we can keep Shaq on defense where he belongs. -
Cooper didn't get many chances until Oregon. When he played early in the season, he did fine, but it was only token appearances.HuskyInAZ said:Coop, DW and Coleman did not consistently run hard early in the year.

Washington runs hard, but he also runs upright. He doesn't have very good vision or wiggle either. He's a big, fast guy playing RB, but he's not even close to being a good or polished RB.
Coleman has looked good at times, but I would agree about him not consistently running hard. I think injury may have played a part in it. Coleman is a plodder so when he doesn't run hard he is awful.
I might disagree about Shaq belonging on defense. He's good on defense, but in the NFL, he's just another guy if he plays D. He's a little small for LB and possibly a little stiff at safety. If he can do what he did in a couple weeks at RB, what could he do playing there full time for a couple years? A 6'1" 225 RB that can catch is pretty special. -

At this point Cooper makes as much sense as the two often injured -- Coleman and Washington. Without a line that can create some space and push, does it really make any difference? None of these three can impose their will on a defense.

Wake up pudbeater. Next years starter isnt even on the roster. Cooper is the guy if any. DW isnt a natural running back, at fucking all. Told u fucks that b4 the year. Coleman is slow with zero burst.HeretoBeatmyChest said:Dwayne Washington looked quite a bit different on his limited carries against UCLA. I'd like to get him some more carries.

Gaskin is the starter, or at least our best back the second he steps on the field -
And if he's playing RB, I doubt he goes to the league after this season. We'll likely get another year with him. Which I kinda feel bad about since we're so drecky.RoadDawg55 said:
