Kind of growing on me, like a wart. I really like the emotion he's playing with and he's running much better. If he would just trust the play a little longer and wait for it to develop he will go to the next level.

Much improved from beginning of the season.

His quickness and physicality seem to be good but his vision is still questionable at times. Not just a knee jerk reaction to that one play last night, but it seems like this has been one of the biggest issues in his career.

I think we're not helping him by never giving him two carries in a row. Product of our offense I guess.

I'm liking his intensity. He has something to prove and is playing with a chip for sure.

He is running better and improving but it's clear that Pierre is STILL our best rb

I'm sure he hears about all the complaining and "bust" talk that the fans give him. I honestly think that he tries harder to prove to everyone that he isn't a bust. I do notice that he gets kind of antsy and misses a hole (if he were to be patient) at times because he's trying so hard to perform well.

I like what I see, I think he'll be better than trent though.

I think the hole wasn't as open as it seemed to him. From the angle we watched it and the angle he was running were different. He has been much more decisive in his reads and cuts though and it makes him a totally different back than what we've seen for the majority of his career. He actually broke through some arm tackles as well.

He's got swagger and attitude, I like that and it's infectious for the rest of the team.

It's fool's gold. I want him to succeed but our return on investment has not panned out up to this point.

He would also be more productive in a different offensive system.

True.

Now, if he could learn to run lower (not simply by bending at the waist), he would actually be able to take advantage of some of the natural strength that he has.

Still, it would be unfair to not recognize how much better he is playing.

Last night was the first time since he played at Bama I watched him run with some authority.
