Cole Beasley

Looks just like Fuse but the cowboys know how to use him.

[HOUCajun]

They are both white. Is that the resemblance you see as well?

[KajunKrazy]

No,build, size, speed, athletic abilities. But unless you've seen Fuse before HUD wasted him you wouldn't know that.

[Hudsheen#Fired]

Fuse didnt have that great of hands

or the route running & your boy Fuse ran stiff. Not very fluid in his running style.

He was never asked to run possession type routes. Hence the misuse.

Don't know the cause, but maybe saw him drop one ball in 4 years of high school. I recognize the college game is different, but lots of those catches in high school were in traffic and were remarkable catches. I am still very surprised by how his college career progressed.

Remember this is a kid whose skills HUD thought so highly of that he did not red shirt him.

Given how poor our offense has been for two years, it's hard not to imagine that he was mis used.

[BrockMeaux]

Yeah, Fuselier should have been used ala Harry Peoples. Lots of short and intermediate stuff to take advantage of his quickness. But Al Riles hasn't exactly been a slouch in the slot, so it was probably understandably hard to take him off the field. But Gabe was never meant to be running streaks all game long on the outside, and that we did that to him was a gross misuse of his talent.

So do people on here really feel that we should have benched Riles and played Fuse because that is what is boils down to he is a slot guy.

First of all, it appears thats mostly what he ran in college. Possession routes. Bubble screens, short outs and crossing routes.

Also, why is it that there needs to be hundreds of posts on him? He gone. Let it be. You want to _____ about Hud? Just say you hate what he's done here and move on.

Definitely not. I think we should have red-shirted Fuse, and played him in the slot exclusively. I also agree with Basinbear that Riles could have also been our power RB last season when we tried to force Eli into that role. That would have gotten Riles (who is one of my favorites, the dude is a warrior) more touches. And opened the slot up to Fuse as well as the other talents. Again, I don't know if Fuse didn't have it or not, but I think given that nobody but Riles and Eli have done much in this offense the last two years I think it's at least reasonable that scheme is part of the problem.

I'm always amazed by how people can't just skip threads they don't like. It's not like anyone is making anybody read a particular thread. If a person has read more than they want about a subject, just stop clicking. It's really pretty simple.

Well I had Cole Beasley starting on my fantasy team last night, so when I saw his name on the title I thought someone was about to give me some fantasy insight....low and behold it was was another Gabe thread...but don't mind me I am just bitter because I started Beasley and he only gave me 5 Points.....
