Mods, please change thread title to "Physical Running, Blocking, Catching And Running Away From People"
I hope so...but I am not going there yet...the guy taking snaps while Hall is a freshman adds a much different dimension to a defense's preparation than the guy who was taking snaps when Montgomery was a freshman! I hope you are right though!!
What is with CMC having these insane players that come in around game 4 and are pretty much our best players. last year it was Purdy. This year Hall. It is pretty awesome that we have these players, but just like last year, why wait till week 4 or or 5 to bring these guys out!! Just like last year, we destroy Iowa if you play these guys right away. Now I have to sit hear and listen to hawk fans talk about how they beat us when we are clearly the better team...
I’m not sure I’m ready to say that. For being feature backs they have different skill sets and strengths. DM isn’t the kind of guy that will run away from a defense, but he’s the guy defenses couldn’t tackle - you either couldn’t get him down because he was lower than you, and if you did get lower than him he’d run you over. Hall, on the other hand, isn’t nearly the physical runner DM is, but he’s much more slippery. Just one move and he’s 20 yards up the field before the defender realizes his ankles were broken. Imagine a backfield with BOTH these guys in it.
Give The Process a couple more years (offensive line next season), and it won't be an issue any more.
