Brilliant, but his size comes with a price, we can't expect him to be an every down back, he was seriously blowing after he had the 3 1st and ten 1st down runs.
He's a brilliant weapon to have but I think he still needs a partner, a partner who will see the ball more often then he does.

He carried the ball 40+ times per game in HS. He just isn't in that kind of football shape here because he hasn't played much at all.
He had 4261 yards on 462 carries last year. I think he'd be fine as a feature back, although we always rotate backs anyway.

Now people see why we were going nuts over people wanting him to play LB. You don't see many kids his size run like he does (maybe Lacy that is it!). He showed tonight how quick he has been to learn pass protection and catching the ball out of the backfield. He has shown his elite speed against Arky and tonight, and showed his amazing ability at the cut back which has always been his thing. Him picking things up like he did after the Iron Bowl proved he has figured things out and that is scary for the SEC for at least 2 more years.
In hind sight, I wish the next years team would have started the 2nd half with out burning any redshirts. We really didn't have anything to lose and a world of experience to gain. Not a knock on our seniors because they are still part of what is a great team and is steadily getting better.
Then I hope he gets in football shape for 2014. That guy is going to be great if he stays healthy.
Possibly a lack of match sharpness, but it did look like a stamina issue in the pictures we saw here. We don't get any coverage of the High School level football here, will he be a much larger man now than he was then? Does the effort required to make runs not alter much between the two levels? Both genuine questions btw

People will be surprised with Tyren Jones as well. With him rehabbing his knee we didn't get to see him this year. Our future at RB is going to be sick and many think we need another RB this year!
He was probably a tad bigger in high school as I imagine Cochran slimmed him down just a tad, especially when he broke his leg or whatever it was during the Spring and all he could do was lift but that could have also hurt him.Possibly a lack of match sharpness, but it did look like a stamina issue in the pictures we saw here.

But I think many RB's would have been a little winded after breaking that many tackles in running the ball so much back to back to back like that. Now I do think he could have came back in after he got a play or two breather but I think the coaches went against it.
