SLOWFLOPRO. I'm crazy about Ridley, but he isn't faster than # 32, #5, or #5. What he has is an explosiveness that the others don't have, particularly going into defenders. His shuttle run was faster than even Murphy's ( I think.) He runs like Scott, but not as hard (dudes, Scott is a load that few backs have.) My gripe is that the coaches aren't using more sets with two TB's. I love Johnson, but 2 TB's offer more. Guys, don't slam me so bad about my opinions. My opinion about Ridley is spot on. The others.... well.....

Agree with your post Hitman. The thing I like most about Stevan is when hit he always falls forward. Don't know if I have ever seen that kid go backwards. Constantly tries to get that extra yard. He sort of reminds me of Hester with that kind of effort. I have also heard that he is a good receiver out of the backfield. He is only a RS freshman so maybe that's why he is not seeing the field more. Have also heard he may be used in the future like Hester, ala TB and FB. And yes, that kid is a legend up here in the sticks of MS.

You know I'm a little concerned that Moffit might be having an adverse affect upon our running backs. They seem to be awesome prospects, do well as Frshmen and Sophs, but then by the time they are juniors, they look bulky and slow. We saw this with Vincent, and now KW is looking this way too.

I guess we haven't had a problem with Scott because he was more stocky to begin with....

Thoughts?
