Agreed.
But there will be people that fight to the death about this because of the "Blue hasn't ran well against good competition."
If Blue stays healthy, dude's a fricking beast. Smoothest runner I've seen in a long time.

Blue is one of the most balanced backs we've had in a while. People don't give him enough credit

I'm not sure why this is on the recruiting board but NOT criticizing the topic which is a good one. Obviously MY opinions and comparisons:
There is a reason Houston Nutt (Ole Miss then) wanted Blue desperately. He is the reincarnation of Dexter McCluster and the McCallum guy at Ark. I think Houston Nutt is overrated as a recruiter and coach, but his judgments of RBs...second to none! Blue is shifty and faster than you think and find holes. Hill is more the Cecil Collins type with both power and speed and shifty enough.
Both RBs have something that was woefully lacking in Spencer Ware, Charles Scott, K Williams, Ford, and every other back since Hester left...that is the ability to "run to daylight". I like Blue WHEN 100% a little better than Hill but obviously either is a high caliber SEC starting RB. I honestly didn't think that way about C Scott or K Williams who too many times "ran into the pile" at the LOS instead of stepping 3 feet to the side where the hole ended up being.
