Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Outside of QB, at which position group are we most overrated by Doogs and the Media?

    Since we are bashing on Gaskin...

    You all are wrong His main flaw is not having enough long runs.

    But he does not consistently get long runs like other big name backs. Saquon, Barkley ronald Jones, Stanford back 1, etc. All have 40+ yard runs nearly every week. While gaskin hardly ever gets a run longer then 20 yards and only has 9 runs over 40 yards

    2015
    78 vs sac state.
    72 vs oregon
    53 vs asu
    86 vs southern miss
    2016
    68 vs Oregon
    45 vs asu
    2017
    57 vs colorado
    43 vs wsu
    69 vs Penn state

    Uh, Gaskin ran for more yards over 3 years than Barkley. But what do stats matter anyway.
    He’s a small slow RB. GTFO

    Gaskin has much better patience and vision out of nothing than Barkley...frankly Saquan struggled there. It's why he had so many games under 100 yds rushing vs descent teams (not us of course).

    OL needs more consistency. Seems someone misses an assignment every other play.

    @BallzDeep hate for Gaskin continues through his brethren @ZombieBallz

    Gaskin would be on a 53 man roster in the NFL this year if he wanted. That makes him college elite.

    No it doesn't. RB's who get drafted in the first and second round were college elite.

    By that definition SC hasn't had an elite RB since Reggie Bush yet you say they have better backfields every year than Gaskin/Ahmed?

    You're talking out of your ass. Again.

    Fuck off.
    I said USC had a better back field than Gaskin and Ahmed last year and they no doubt have a more talented RB corps right now than we do. And you're right. They haven't had an elite back since Reggie. Ronald Jones and Stephen Carr will both go in the top two rounds though, bitch.

    "It's a really good backfield and might be the best we've ever had but teams like Bama, Georgia, Ohio State, and USC have better backfields than that every year."
