The guy is a bust.

Every year, you hear about how he dominates Spring practices and the Spring game, and then he never produces on the field. I am sick of the hype on this guy. I'll take Chuck the Truck and Keiland any day over Dick Murphy.

I'd love to see Ridley getting carries over him.

I agree with you mostly but I also think that KW and Murphy should have gotten more carries this year. Yeah I think Scott might be our best back, but rotating Murphy and Keiland into the game would only make it harder for defenses to know what we're going to do.

I think if murphy gets a chance he can do some things. He just isn't too decisive in his cuts and is trying to hit a homerun everytime he touches the ball

Really? how can you say that when the guy gets 2 carries per game. Hershel Walker would be a bust on this team if he only got 2 carries a game. The guy is not getting enough touches to say how good/bad he is. If he got the Charles Scott 20 plus carries per game he may be just as good. We don't know.

Yeah idk what we were thinking with that wild tiger bull shite. What is the point if the defense is 100% positive that you are going to run it.

Gotcha. Just saw that you responded to me. Didn't pick up on the "wild 1 yard gain". Past my bedtime I guess.

Because the coaching staff knows that TH isn't as fast as everyone thinks, but they don't want to let the cat out of the bag. They would rather instill fear in coaches like Nutt, but never give TH a chance. That way the opposition wastes time preparing for a look that they won't even see. That's pretty fricking genious if you ask me.

he was a 3 star out of hs and is only a sophomore..still has plenty of time to prove himself. how can you be a bust when you were projected to be an average player?

The wild tiger could be successful but how coaches don't know how to use it. Every we time we come out with it Murphy runs it up the gut. Murphy with Scott in the backfield and Trindon in the slots could be dangerous but our coaches are idiots.
