I think they're pretty close. Glad we got them both (assuming Ware signs).

Dan, Ford has all of those qualities you mentioned as well.



Perhaps he does... I just haven't seen it from the videos. To me he looks like a guy who runs with a lot of power in HS but won't be able to in college. Just my opinion.

Don't get me wrong... I LOVE Ford and he will be spectacular at LSU.

But I love Ware's natural vision, instincts, balance and toughness. If he had elite speed, I think he'd be considered one of the best backs in the country...


Emmitt Smith and Walter Payton did not have elite speed and they were the complete backs in the history of football.

Yeah for sure. I was just speaking in terms of why recruiting sites don't have him as highly ranked as they should.

Explosion out of cuts >>>>> elite speed.

I know Ware is going to be a beast... I hope Ford is even better.

we claim to have the best backfield every year. yet, we have struggled to run the football against washington and vanderbilt. the best will play in time. i can't see ware contributing for a long time.

i think we'll see ford this upcoming weekend in mop up. ridley will finally get to tote as well.
