Danielson on the "not in same class" comments

Ware is a sophomore

I mean, what has Trent done to earn his notches up the ladder? Play behind Ingram for two years? Yeah he has more yards than Ware this year, but he doesn't split as many carries as Ware does. Ware also hasn't played the stout defensive fronts of Kent State, North Texas, Vanderbilt, or Ole Miss.


I have no issue with Danielson saying Ware isn't as good as Richardson, but to say they aren't in the same class is just dumb. Its not like Richardson is some RB god and Ware is a walk-on. They are both starting RBs on SEC teams that are in National Title contention. I'd say that alone puts them in the same class.

Tr seems to be much faster than ware

He said this almost verbatim each of the past two weeks. If it were one passing comment, I might dismiss it but danielson has some major crush on Richardson or hate for ware. Just wait, he will do it agin next week. I hate his biased play calling and opinions.

Which of the 2 would you prefer to tackle?

I'd take a dive if either were coming at me.

Ware runs with passion. TR runs with power. Power will run out, never the passion will.

What I would love to see is Spencer Ware playing LB going head up with Trent Richardson. Talk about a collision. He would destroy opposing running backs just like he does opposing safeties now.

I just don't understand the comparison, though. Do people sitting in the booth at the Oregon games yammer about this when James is running? Do we hear this when Lattimore runs at SC? When I watch any other games with any other running backs, even our other backs like Ford and Blue, Richardson's name never gets uttered but for some reason, let Ware step on the field and Danielson gets Turrette's for some reason and involutarily starts sputtering, "Richarson" and "NOT SAME CLASS! NOT SAME CLASS!!" repeatedly. It gets annoying.

Have you considered the possibility that it's because Ware is more impressive than the others in a way that's closer Richardson? That Danielson is actually complimenting the kid as being that powerful of a runner although not yet quite up to Richardson's level?
