Deshawn Wynn was Florida's leading rusher in 2006 and his recruiting profile listed him at 215 pounds. So maybe he was a "power" back after all. His 699 yards that season were clearly a testament to the superiority of recruiting power backs.
Just stay down, dude.

I love @BallzDeep - he's amazing. He's obviously stupid about big backs, but whatever.
Still... does anyone else get the feeling it's an alternate @Passion account he uses when he's coked up and can't resist using HH lingo? -
It did dawn on me that he might have been wooshing (or Wooching) all of us after the fourth page of ridiculous drivel.Dennis_DeYoung said:I love @BallzDeep - he's amazing. He's obviously stupid about big backs, but whatever.

Pretty safe to say Richard Newton will never have a longer thread with his name on it than this one no matter where he goes.

Once again no one has gone back any further than 12 years. Feel free to fill in the extra eight. Until then claiming twenty is a lie.

Are we done here or should I keep going? -
Anyone ever thought that the amount of big backs in Natty games in the past few years is an artifact of Bama's CFB dominance?
Also anyone think that (as that is probably the case) looking at 'winning a Natty' may not be the right criteria to judge this by as that is one team per year and their success is not likely to be wholly mediated by their running back?
Hmmmmmmm... -

FUCK NO! Warren is a fucking beast! I would trade him for Gaskin in a heart beat. Congratulations, you just won Doog of the year with that one.NEsnake12 said:In the 2015 class UW went after both Chris Warren and Myles Gaskin. Warren was the higher rated recruit and undeniably a "power back" at 6'3 240. His highlights were more him just running over people while Gaskin's showcased his vision and elusiveness a bit more. I think everyone on this bored would rather have Gaskin than Warren and wouldn't think twice about it.
