I have seen enough. If he goes somewhere else, this will be Travis Etienne part 2.

I worry about his size but he’s got everything else.

When they are smaller, they have to be tough.....and he is. A winner

LSU is missing out on a serious game changer. Home run threat every time he touches the ball.

Only silver lining is if he refuses to come to LSU, I’m fine with him rotting away at a school we will never play.

Over 300 yards and has had a 74 and 69 yard touchdowns called back. Wow

His acceleration is absolutely insane. I’ve been watching him for awhile now and it still impresses me

Agree. It is a different gear

His 5 yard runs always look like they can turn into 50 yard runs with one extra block. It’s like you’re just waiting for him to break one. Similar to Fournette in a way

He reminds me of Mathieu with the ball in his hands.

Can he make his reads and pass block? If not, he will not be in our top three next year.

It really is impressive, plus I’m not sure you could tackle that dude in a phone booth. Got speed, moves, and toughness. Just missing the most important trait...grades.

In the More Sports Playoff Results thread, someone posted that in 3 playoff games he has over 900 rushing and 11 TDS!

Having the grades to go to Harvard is different than having the money to go to Harvard.

That’s what they said on WWL radio while listening on our way home from the game. I believe it too. The kid is just an unbelievable talent.

I was sitting home bored and decided to go to the game and check the kid out live. Pooka is the real deal! Not sure if you watched the game or not but there was one play in particular that impressed me. People are saying he doesn't have the grades and what not but let me tell you the kid is football smart. He was bottled up for like a five yard loss and never crossed the line of scrimmage. Instead of taking the loss of yards he managed to get out of the pocket and throw the ball away as if he were the qb. I was quit impressed by him having the foresight to do that. If the kid gets three steps without being challenged he is taking it to the house 9 out of 10 times. He is legit!
