He is like Brandon Jacobs. Just a big big man who can run...all over you.

Back to Alonzo... seriously nice game. I love the way this guy runs. He has a lot of vision and patience to go along with his athleticism. We are going to be blessed for years to come. The OL did a great job last night as well. Our D stepped up huge. What a rebound from the WKU game!
Harris was originally a Kentucky pledge.
Alonzo Harris- 33 carries, 189 yards, 2TD's, AND my vote for Sun Belt Player of the Week!!!
I am almost positive that Harris was going to be a LBer and a damn good one but upon letting him try a little at TB and realizing the speed he had and seeing his performance in Summer----It became a no brainer---- My description of him would be----First off a thing that nobody mentions---The guy has Fantastic hands (think back to some low ball throws that he has made out of the backfield)--- a lanky 210 that has galloping outside speed and great body lean---Can twist his body for the extra yardage (Hell he ran backwards for 5 yards on one TD)-----When caught up inside he has the strength to move the pile for extra effort yardage-----Something extra he brings is a one on one JUKE that causes him to avoid tackles (guys to miss)---When on a break to the outside he uses his speed, power, illusiveness to cause defenders to read his path rather than to attack---Here he just crushes the almost always smaller defender---No critique yet on his blocking but heard it was great!!! What a pick-up!!!!!!
