One defensive back from Auburn got the angle on him earlier this year on a long run


He was cutting straight across the field though. If running in a straight line, the guy never catches him. He ran a little to far to the sideline. I've seen guys do this a lot and lose touchdowns.

Hill is fast for a big man, but virtually every corner is significantly faster. Hill can run with a lot of safeties, though.

I haven't seen enough of Derrius Guice to say anything other than he doesn't have nearly the top end speed Jeremy Hill does


Derrius runs close to a 4.3 40

I knew he looked faster than 4.6 on the original highlight but 4.4 is crazy! He probably runs a realistic 4.44-4.47, but anything below 4.47 and he is definitely fast than any RB we have on squad.

Just think, in 2015, we could have 3 RBs with 4.45 and below speed.

Speaking of Guice, he is having another huge night. Had an amazing 50+ yard TD, to go along with a really good 40 yard TD. Not even half time yet and he has over 100 yards.

Def extremely fast. And earlier I posted that I wasnt sure who i would compare his running style too. Well now I think I got it. And Im not 1 to make crazy comparisons or anything and Im not saying he is the next AP or anything like that at ALL, but his running style is similar to APs. Never goes down on 1st contact,has great moves, it takes multiple guys to bring him down, and can take it the distance from anywhere on the field. Goes 100% on each and every run and gets the most that you can possibly get on that play. He plays angry on the field, with reckless abandon. He doesnt just want to have big runs and score TDs, he wants the other team to fear him and not want anything to do with him by the end of the game. Again, not saying hes the next AP or anything like that. Just that their running styles are similar and not that many people run like that. Hes had multiple runs this year where multiple guys are on him and you think hes down, then they all just fall back and he busts out of the area for a long run. HIs attitude and the way he plays and fights for whatever he can get each and every play is 1 of the more impressive things about him.

Every time I watch him play I come away impressed. He looks better and better every time I see him play. I think hes the 2nd best prospect for us in the 2015 class, just behind KT. And hes ranked highly a lot of places, but I see him moving up, especially after the season. Hes not just a running back, hes a complete football player. He will go down on special teams and blow someone up. He could play safety. Hes just a really really good football player.

I can't find highlights and the ones on hudl are private. Why do they not want people to see their highlights?

Not a clue. Just google his name and highlights. Should come up. But they will be of his soph season, where he wasn't the #1 guy.

This season he's been tearing it up. Had a couple of great runs so far and 1 amazing 50 yard TD tonight. Nasty.

Ya I was at the game and when he made a spin move to break that 50 yd run there was a collective gasp from the crowd. He's an explosive runner

Nah I saw that already. Somebody held a camera up to his hudl/prepforce highlights from last year and laid new music over it. He's one of the only guys I can't find on youtube (prior to that crapola that guy posted last week). Just rewatched his video on Prepforce and he definitely looks faster than I remember.

With him battling injuries all year and Catholic automatically in the Playoffs before game 1, why are they not holding him out until he's 1000%?

Hes 100%. His injuries havent been serious at all. He could of played after 1 week with his bruised thigh but they held him out 2 just to be safe. Hes fine.

Final stats from last night: 146 yards with 2 TDs on 17 carries. All in the 1st half.

Coach Weiner wants them concentrating on the season and not recruiting...

he must not. And ive never met him but Ive watched him play a few games this season. Hes the meanest player on the field. He doesnt want to just beat or score TDs vs the opponent, he wants the opponent to fear tackling him and not have anything to do with him.

The more I watch him play, the better he looks to me. His attitude and the way he brings 100% on every single play and how he will get the most you can get on every single play is 1 of his best qualities out there IMO.

He will be climbing in the rankings next time they are updated. Hes looked great.
