This place has decided to hate him for some reason. He was the only good thing about our offense on saturday. Now the narrative is that he doesn’t get the TUFF “needed” yards when in actuality that was more fucktarded play calling than anything else. We refuse to spread it on short yardage situations and go inside zone or something to that effect. We get really tight with our formations which get more defenders in the box. I will give you that he sometimes gets into his blockers backs to fast but he seemed to really reign it in on Saturday.

Basically you guys decided he sucked last year and are looking for confirmation bias. Fuck off. He’s a good player and showed he can be a good back on saturday.

As I've said all along, he reminds me of a young Louis Rankin and he'll probably have a banner senior year as he develops.

That’s an FScomparsion. I’ll give you that sometimes he needs to slow down and not get on his blockers backs so quickly. But he did a good job of that on saturday. He’s going to be all-conference this year

I felt that he missed the hole on the inside carriers a few times. Ran into traffic. He is a good running, but needs better vision or feel for where the hole is.

A lot of confirmation bias in this thread

This is the Louis Rankin that Derek is referring to:

You never even watched Louis Rankin. It's not a diss.

Your* changing the narrative with your narrative.

Nobody ever said he wasn't a 'good' player. Stop being dramatic and leave that to Mike Seaver. The origin of all of this was ME asking one simple question: how will you? replace Myles Gaskin? Most clear thinking people responded by saying that we? probably won't. Some idiot responded by saying "easy: the elite terrorist."

If he has space to run to right away, he'll hit it and hurt you. There's no question about that.

If he does not have space to run to right away, he'll hesitate, jump and dodge and get caught up in traffic. And he goes down almost always on first contact.

These things are just true. He doesn't create, he doesn't have the finesse moves and vision to run in heavy traffic and he sure as shit doesn't break tackles. If you can't see that then you need to get into a Bridge game with Grandpa Sankey.

Louis Rankin was bigger and less sudden with greater down field speed. It's been a while, but I remember Rankin as a different player other than he also liked to run into his blockers.

“He doesn’t create” go watch the fucking touchdown run creep. I never you said he sucked. People on here say it all the time, it’d a dumb narrative. Moot point anyways cuz we suck
