Lavon Coleman leaving

To a certain degree, I think Coleman knows that his best chance at a lengthy NFL career is as a backup RB that is a strong special teams player.
He's learned to run downhill as a RB behind his pads packing quite a punch ... and as @Passion has pointed out, he's doing tremendous work on special teams.
Those kinds of players often don't get the limelight that others do, but you don't win football games without them. -
I don't think he was slow. He always had burst. He just didn't run hard consistently.
So you saw - every now and then - he would run with purpose and do something great. But most of the time you saw him slow to pick holes, not put it in overdrive from the get-go and he looked slow because he was indecisive.
Now he just runs with purpose on every carry, knows where he's going and as my esteemed colleague @Tequilla points out, learned to 'get behind his pads' and added a lot of power to his game. -

Coleman was playing with cement cleats for 2 years so that he would be explosive when he removed them his junior year

Dude don't overthink this. Even on the rare occasions he got into the open field he was slow as hell. He wasn't called cement shoes by accident.Dennis_DeYoung said:I don't think he was slow. He always had burst. He just didn't run hard consistently.

Dude got on the juice and took his 40 from a 4.9 to a 4.6, turned 15 pounds of baby fat into muscle and realized he's a badass. His body transformation is everything a strength and conditioning program is supposed to produce and ours hasn't for a good 20 years.
IMO, what's happened to Coleman is the single biggest reason to believe in this program's future. If we can take a scrub like Coleman and produce this, look the fuck out. -
Just imagine Ahmed after a RS year. I'm looking forward to learning about Murphy, Levi, Camilo, Twat, Love in Spring ... after this epic return to prominence/relevance season concludes in Jan '17.dnc said:
