MY GOD Emery is electric. His cutting ability is downright NASTY. Davis-Price is a downhill runner with ability to make a cut. Curry is a freight-train haha. Great burst and once those legs start churning, he'll deliver a thump. This video is pretty much a highlight video for Emery, Davis-Price, and Curry.

great vid. thanks for posting. these cats are gonna be so awesome with another year of development and competing for carries. every single week could be a battle for carries honestly. And to think we'll likely have all 3 of these guys back in 2021 PLUS Kevontre Bradford and all of his speed. We're really getting back to being RBU while at the same time running a spread attack. The next few years are going to be very fun.

ETA: I forgot how well Emery played against Utah State outside of that fumble. I wonder if he was about to take a serious role had he not fumbled in that game.

I think emery is going to be the most talented and will be second after Curry.

I could be wrong but I heard only faint rumblings of Curry transferring before the OU game and then he got the majority of touches.

I think he might have been promised the starter after hellaire opted nfl and it’s his to lose.

He has only one year over tdp/emery but he’s got speed and strength.

We'll definitely run more with Brennan at QB. I'm cool with each of the 4 we'll have.

Curry is short and refuses to go down with some nice burst. Plays with a major edge. Has the Clyde effect but with less agility.

TDP is a speedy wrecking ball. Give him a lane and he'll put on a stellar Leonard Fournette impression.

Emery has springs for legs and rockets on his shoes. Low 4.4 guy that will juke the absolute hell out of anyone.

Bradford is pretty much Michael Ford

Hell of a group

Man, I’m ready for football season again
Didn’t realize Emery got that many touches...probably because I was pretty drunk toward the end of a lot of the games he saw action in.

He got quite a few haha. His cuts are just so nasty. Should be great competition for that starting spot.

Emery - crazy juking and jump cuts, good top end speed (similar to Guice), strength enough to power through 2-3 guys on him (saw this multiple times). I think he's going to be an excellent receiver now with eyesight done. Overall I think he's still going to be the best because he brings the most to the table. Comparable talent level to a pre injury Guice. Even some of the running he did on some of these reminded me of the reckless abandon Guice ran with.

Price - speed and power. He can catch (10 passes as a backup who only carries the ball 4 times a game), and like I thought from high school film, he is a legit home run threat if he gets an opening. Comparable talent level to Jeremy Hill with speed of Fournette.

Curry - A LOT faster than I remember him being in high school. He looks like he's shot out of a cannon. It might just be his initial acceleration though. I didn't see him on a long run. Breaks tackles, powers through tackles, he really does remind me of Lynch. Man it's hard to give him a talent level with so little to work on, but he just looks like how Lynch was in college in that game vs Oklahoma.

I still love the rb position. Emery is all around impressive. What impressed me about Price was getting some tough yards against Auburn. We are in good hands.

Absolutely no concern for the RB position, but then there is the damned transfer portal.

If coaches stay in Curry's ear about saving his body for NFL and not to fret about sharing carries or being a back up. From those clips he appeared to be the most complete back.

The thing that stands out to me in that video is how ALL 3 RBs always fall forward. That's an extra yard each carry.

Running game should be stout for at least a couple more years.

I know everyone wants to compare curry to beast mode but personally I see more Marion the barbarian to his game, just needs to develop that wicked stiff arm...the future is bright indeed

Emory has that elusive speed with the ability to turn on a dime. His cut ability is elite. He’s got the most upside with our offense.

TDP has a extremely fluid running style with a ton of power. He’ll never take a loss.

Curry comes out the backfield like he’s shot out of a rocket. He’s got power and speed but may lack a little vision. He definitely looks for the hit over anything else.

Emery will be a complete back. An elite game changer if he does the work in the film room and playbook.

Price needs to run a bit lower behind his pads at times but he reminds me of Darrell williams.

Curry is clearly a 1 cut back. Zero wiggle but brings a load when people try to tackle him.

Gotta feel bad for those poor bastards on defense in that video. Down by 50 and you have to tackle a fresh legged TDP or Curry coming at you with a head full of steam. Lol
