Seems like running backs usually pop early (gaskin, sankey, polk). the fact that Davis is going into his third season and hasn't been able to establish himself as the primary back isn't a good sign for him being great especially when you look at the JAGs he's been competing with. hope Im wrong

It wouldn’t surprise me if Davis has a 1,000 yd season. He’s bigger than McGrew and the coaches might him 20+ carries. If he does, expect the 1,000 yards as a result of bulk carries rather than production. Ahmed rushed for a 1,000+ two years ago and it was very ho hum, especially when almost 10% (8+%) of the yards came on one play.fouchpotato said:Seems like running backs usually pop early (gaskin, sankey, polk). the fact that Davis is going into his third season and hasn't been able to establish himself as the primary back isn't a good sign for him being great especially when you look at the JAGs he's been competing with. hope Im wrong

His first season Salvon was the feature back with and older Dick Newton also getting carries.fouchpotato said:Seems like running backs usually pop early (gaskin, sankey, polk). the fact that Davis is going into his third season and hasn't been able to establish himself as the primary back isn't a good sign for him being great especially when you look at the JAGs he's been competing with. hope Im wrong
Last year was only 4 games starting off directly in league play, mostly close games and come from behind.
I think he might be a below average blocker and/or a limited pass catcher. With trusted upperclassmen in front they were not going to put him on the field in the multitude of high pressure situations in which the Huskies found themselves.
Kamari got a ton of snaps because he can block and catch, two important things when you are down 21-0 for like half the season. -
Lol. You hate Salvon but like McGrew? Lol.Baseman said:

Davis has the most potential, but that's all it is at this point (I am still really high on him). McGrew is solid and I hope him and Davis get most of the carries.
But who cares about "needing" an NFL guy. This is college. I'd rather have a good 4-year college player like Gaines or Gaskin that is undersized than someone who has the football traits like Tryon who plays well for 1/2 a season and leaves for the draft.
Voi is undersized and I'm fine with that because he's more likely going to be in college for longer and he's a beast. Getting NFL studs is great, but we aren't Bama, we're only going to get so many. Develop the players with athletic traits, get the best players that the major programs might overlook, and keep the studs from our general footprint home. That is the most likely way to build a complete roster. -
Your 2 examples are good NFL players btw.dawgs206 said:Davis has the most potential, but that's all it is at this point (I am still really high on him). McGrew is solid and I hope him and Davis get most of the carries.

That's fine. If they were 2" taller they would have left early and been more highly recruited. Not saying we shouldn't recruit the prototypical NFL types, but that won't ever be our bread and butter unless they're in our backyard. You said yourself if Voi is 2" taller he's a 5 star (I agree). You think we land him if that's the case?backthepack said:

I'm all for leveling up, but college production is really all that matters... in college, which seems to be the argument about McGrew. -
Meh. Cement shoes was awful for two years, had the rhino cum explosion his junior year then was mediocre again as a senior.BeerThirty said:some of you forget that Colman was a damn good back, very reliable. I would put him above Ahmed based on what he accomplished here
Biggest frustration is despite being the BIG BACK he was never once good in short yardage but based on his size (and probably some bullying from @Ballz) @Babushka loved to line him up in the backfield at the goal line and in short yardage situations.
I would take Ahmed's career over Coleman's rather easily. -
Coleman was a "big back" who was never better in short yardage than the little back Gaskin. Myles was always better at everything. I would take Salvon every time over Coleman.dnc said:
