Because he sucks. He has no actual running back skills, he just looks very athletic. There’s a reason he’s been passed by much younger players

Short answer is Durham is a better RB.

Bet he gets 5-10 carried this week given the opponent.
Good chance to earn more looks/coaches confidence.

He'll probably knock the shite out of La Tech. Rest up Durham for Flarda.

He'll play next week. They had a specific plan. Screens, short throws and Durham doing work as the safest RB option. Ju'an Johnson played more because he's more versatile.

maybe, but absolutely correct

He leveled Peter Woods, that was cool

He’s just not good. No vision and he’s always slow starting off. Great top end speed, but that’s all he has.

Need to use him as a full back.
Guy may have no vision but he can still knock the shite out of people running head on

Looks like Johnson passed him up

In a nutshell, he runs to piles.

Against a defensive line like that, his running style isn’t going to be effective. He needs to get in space and not have to make his own like Caden can. We could barely block Clemson’s front, so that’s why you saw those who can make a quick cut back get more reps (Caden, Thomas, JuJu)

EXACTLY. Your football IQ is needed more at TD.

The explanation is what took place at Clemson Saturday Night. Durham is RB1 and Johnson and Berry are 2 and 3 behind him. How often does RB #4 get in a game that is not a blowout.
Jackson should get his chance Saturday night as LSU is a 39 point favorite.

They like Duram better, I still think he can be a good back.

Berry got popped twice the last couple of weeks practice, he fumbled both times.
He is going to be a good one but people that thought he would come in from that level of comp and at his size were not being realistic.
Jackson can still serve a purpose helping to load manage Durham. But if you listened to Franks interview before Clemson he isnt going to play much against better opponents. Too slow and runs right to the guy that will tackle him. A slow RB out of the shot gun just doesnt work, ever.
