Who does Durham remind you of?

He is 5'9" 205 which is roughly the same size as Emmitt Smith, Barry Sanders, Walter Payton, and LaDainian Tomlinson, but faster than them. I am not saying he is better or will be, but he can be a every down back at his size. After watching his runs he has great balance and vision. He runs 10.49 as well so who do you think he will turn out being like once he leaves LSU?

do we have to really compare him to 3 of the best RBs ever?

More like Dalton Hilliard but not as big thighs.

Based on the limited times I've seen him, I'd initially go with Brian Westbrook.

I don’t know much about his high school stats. Can he catch? Love to seem in the open.

I was only comparing their sizes and they all had long great careers. He does have better 100 m speed.

I don't have an obvious comp for him. People are trying hard to come up with one.

Scike says Justin Vincent. I don't really see that. Different levels of speed.

He reminds me a lot of Domanik Davis in a LSU uniform.

Davis had that little burst, was shorter and fast. And could break a tackle.

I really hope so.

An effective screen game can go a long way in opening up this offense. Starting every set of downs with a one yard or no gain run up the middle is untenable. USC's front seven had no reason to spread out.

Sanders ran 4.38 and moved like no RB ever has. You can leave him off the list, nobody compares.

His high school videos in Texas are impressive.

LSU wise- a bit like Guice and a bit like Dalton. Vertical movement, cuts, vision, toughness etc. if he can catch the ball he will be great. He hasn’t even tapped into his home run speed yet.
