    Megwa is not that great. He's a guy with Gaskin-like traits but slower. At one point in his hudl he is chased down by a small white kid in the open field. Buzz kill.

    I actually liked Sunday's film better.

    Shit take. Megwa was similar but easily faster than Gaskin in his earlier film. In his junior film he's not even the same kid. He's not Gaskin-like at all. He's three inches taller and 25 lbs heavier and runs like the big back that he is.

    Don’t ever say you don’t like a TBS board favorite even tho half the kids end up busts.

    The Gaskin comparison makes absolutely 0 sense. Gaskin was a better prospect better feet. This kid is good though, he has pretty good lateral ability for a big guy and decent long speed. Different styles.

    Chuck, chuck, chuck. The eyes are for more than reading stats.

    He picks his way along the line in a way very reminiscent of Myles, he has great patience and instincts. He just does not have great burst, and in the open field he's no more deadly than Kamari Pleasant. He's a good back but if he went to Alabama, for instance, he would never carry the rock.

    Also, Myles was much quicker and faster in his O'Dea film. I'm surprised you're making that comparison.

    Myles had at least two TD runs of 80+ yards at UW, multiple in the 40+ range. I don't see Emeka doing that, no matter how many tackles he can break as the proverbial big back.

    He may be big but he doesn't play like a "big back," he's strong but he's not bulldozing people and he is not sudden or really explosive at the point of contact. He seems to exhibit a finesse style and is difficult to bring down at the HS level. Reminds me of Kenny James.

    My prediction is that Sunday will have the better UW career.

    Clearly KingDome Urinals didn’t hear what Coach Hayes said about him…
