When this kid gets a bit stronger in the legs




I literally posted a video with like the 3rd reply showing him squat 605 lbs. twice

He'd have some of the strongest legs on LSU's team TODAY as a high school senior.

Also, I think Zach looks like Saquon Barkley.

Both powerhouses in the lower body, but have top speed and shiftiness to go with it. That is my best comp.

I think Zach will be about that size when he's done at LSU.

No doubt Evan's is a great back, but I believe Gibb's film is some of the best RB film I have ever seen.
Have to agree with this. Gibbs looks amazing. Evans looks really good.

Keep in mind competition levels.

And Evans is a freak of nature athletically and strength wise. Much moreso than Gibbs.

No, I get that. I am just talking about cuts/acceleration/perceived speed.

What I mean is while running with the football. Running low with his legs. Squatting and running with the football are quite different when talking about leg strength or using that strength to his advantage.

Regardless he looks like he’s going to be a great RB. LF had a real issue with letting his blockers get in front and running lower to the ground. If he can do that consistently he will be that much better.

What do you mean? Zack Evans is already squatting 605 pounds more than once.

First, the crack back block at about 2:12 on the Gibbs video was just a pure demolition of that defender...

Second, Gibbs’ ability to cut through traffic is unbelievable. He’d still have most of those highlights if they were playing two-hand touch... He’s going to be a terror if whoever gets him can consistently put him out in space.

The kid who was ranked #1 last year is our 3rd string this year. So let’s not overhype every kid.

I believe Emery is the most talented back we have. Just hasn’t turned the corner from high school to college. TDP caught on quicker, similar to Kenny Hilliard/Jeremy Hill. But next season, I believe Emery gets it and his athleticism is too good to sideline. He will be the premier back. TDP will be the bell cow when the defense is gassed. Evans will be in the rotation early but where his money will be made is in the passing game. Brennan will excel in the quick game, and having backs like Emery and Evans out there will be huge for a green QB.

Zach just had 354 yards on only 20 carries in the Texas 6A DI 2nd round playoff game against 10-1 Pearland Dawson.

So, yeah. He good.

Last night in a playoff game he went for 354 yards on 20 carries. Yes, he's that good.
