Running Backs

[Cajun Monkee]

Don't we have a QB who could make a great RB as well?

Legendre, maybe?

Did Zylan Perry play quarterback?

You're getting crap about leaving out the "h" in Johnson.

Glass houses, guys.

I'm hoping Dre'lyn Washington is a Bailey clone.

I don't know if Kibodi is gonna do it. I hope so, but he transferred in after a little bounding around, switched positions, and then moved back to running back when it looked like we might be thin at RB. And he is a senior, so we would need to replace him real soon anyway.

Jackson was here last summer, didn't make it through preseason training and has come back for another try. Again, great measurables, but how much of the "want to" is there.

The kid from Lamar may be stout, but 3.2 yards a carry at that level doesn't instill confidence in me.

Elijah Davis might be our highest rated recruit ever when it is said and done, but he is a year away.

I think we'll be ok at RB but I don't think we say "no" when opportunity knocks.

For comparison, I think we have at least four quarterbacks who, in the next two years, could be in the conversation as a starter. I think this room is a bit more crowded than the running back room.

You are correct, Kobodi, Ward, Jackson, Orphey and Bryce are all walk-ons. Both Williams, Smith, Washington and Perry are scholarship backs. Kobodi and Smith are gone after this season, it makes sense to sign several backs, if not three underneath in this class going forward.

Did Zylan Perry play quarterback?

He was QB1 but they did utilize him as an ATH at times.

My oldest son’s Jr. year Zylan was a Fr., and was without question the best player on the field.

[CajunT]

Legendre, maybe?

Did Zylan Perry play quarterback?

Yes, similar to McGuire.

Leger was quoted as saying the many Williams is just as good as Johnson.

If they don’t know who I was referring to it shows you how much Cajuns football they watched last year.

Maybe Jackson will be able to make it this year with a coach that goes easier on them in place now?

T, is Chris Smith a senior? He is listed on the roster as a junior. I would assume he probably will be graduating this year, but won't he have a year of eligibility left?

KK, not doubting the confidence in the stereo Williams, but I think the weight cited for Kendrell earlier in the thread was a little generous. The roster lists him at 195. I think his size has always been over-estimated. My daughter taught him at Carencro so I was geeked when he signed; at the time news reports had him listed at 6'0", 225 lbs.

Gaston, I sure hope so. I'd much rather have players pushing players rather than coaches settling for and making do.

Remember, Terrance was recruited as a linebacker, but when depth became an issue last year, he made the switch and WAS the first person off the bench when Bailey got hurt. So I think that speaks for his athleticism.

Zylan Perry will be the most interesting rookie to watch in the RB room.

I don’t recall anything in T Williams recruiting that suggested he was ever going to be a linebacker. Every thing lists him as a RB and all his offers were at RB.

I'm pumped to see T. Williams possibly get a chance to make a big impact. From those I know that watched him extensively, he could be very effective.
