Junior highlights:
LINK
quote:

The 5-foot-11, 200-pounder from Lehigh Acres (Fla.) signed with the Tigers over offers from Florida, Michigan, Nebraska, Oregon, USC, Wisconsin and many others.

As a junior, Curry rushed for 1,158 yards and 13 touchdowns on just 105 carries in seven games. An average of 11.0 yards a tote is nothing to scoff at, just as multiple touchdown runs where he took it the distance from 80 or more yards.

Curry’s production tapered off in 2017 as he battled some minor lower leg injuries that nagged him all season. He finished with 764 yards and five touchdowns on 112 carries in seven contests.

His senior season he had poor blocking and spent more time moving piles vs breaking runs. He's a very tough runner hence the nickname "Beast mode". LSU should be very happy with him in our backfield.

That highlight real looks like Back when I would Play NCAA football and play with the sliders and put it on Freshmen Mode.

Sure that isn’t his Track and Field highlight real?

Looks like they ran the same play on a couple of those 90 yard runs.

That #8 WR has got some speed. Holy shite, his burst to get in position to block is crazy fast. Let’s get him too!

Hail Curry!

That's exactly what I thought after the first run. That dude runs like a gazelle.

He’s not big but makes up for it by being slow.

But seriously, he runs a lot like Marion Barber, and looks like a decent prospect. Looks a bit slow for a 200 pounder though. I enjoyed his highlights and agree that he could be a fan favorite.

It’ll be easier for you to notice when he plays against college players.

You said he's slow. Compared to who? What are you implying? Yes, bama attempted to engage him. It's a fact. Clemson, Miami, and Michigan among many others definitively offered. They think his speed is adequate.
