Trindon Holliday in the NFL

Yall think he'll go to the draft?
i know i know hes 5'6" 165lbs yes thats tiny for th NFL, i know what your thinkinng he'll get demolished...but i think he might be able to make it as a return specialist. Darren Sproles, the returner for the Chargers, is only 5'6" 180 lbs. Not too much different

Miles will make sure that he gets a good chance to make it in the NFL. Punt returner maybe.

As long as he can hold onto the ball

He needs to catch punts to go to the NFL but I agree.

Look at what Darren Sproles can do. He is 5'6" 181 and he runs all over the place, including between the tackles.

We haven't given trindon much of a chance to run between the tackles.

They're a helluva a lot different.

LSU ran him between the tackles last year in the SECCG against Tennessee and he fumbled, maybe that's why we haven't seen him running between the tackles this year. I hope he gets a chance again but until someone can stop Charles Scott we'll see more of the same (which is fine with me)

You can't just take a really fast guy and assume he's a good running back.

You haven't watched Holliday run the ball if you think that, Trindon has some sick moves to go with his speed.

Darren Sproles was an everydown back at K State, something Trindon has not proven he is capable of...yet
Posted on 9/26/08 at 10:33 am to FUBAR
Trindon's motor almost runs too fast...he needs to take a millisecond sometimes and look for the hole or cutback. Out in the open where he can weave in and out, no one can catch him.

He does, but have you seen Sproles run in the NFl. He's has good vision and lateral quickness and hits the hole hard. TH isn't a RB at the next level. He could be a kick returner.

I thought Trindon was 5'5"?
Oh well. He is a real football player, not just a sprinter. He has moves, good vision, and takes care of the ball. Yes, he has fumbled, but not a lot. He takes hits well, and seldom ends up on his back.
People misunderstand about size. Being small actually makes you less injury prone. When a small man gets hit by a big man, his body moves instantly, and it's a softer hit than 2 big men butting heads. Now,,, a big man could pick him up and body slam him, but that can be avoided.

Warrick Dunn survived for several years running between the tackles. I don't know what they listed him as, but I've seen him on several occasions and he's not much more than 165.

Ok, at this point in TH's career, I agree with that. If there wasn't such a stable of backs at LSU, TH would get more reps but that's a problem a Tiger fan can't feel bad about.

i agree which what i said...i doubt he could be an everyday back with where hs at right now..maybe if he does some big time training the next two years btu as of right now i think hes just a returner in the NFL...but a damn good one

Kick returner / punt returner
Maybe a once a game screen pass to him or something similar

Sprohles is thick. He has a lot of muscle. Trindon is just small.
Then again look at what Quiz Rodgers did against USC.
Either way I think he goes pro in track after LSU.
