Coaches always praised him coming here. Even as a freshman. I've always said I thought he has the best second gear of any of our backs. Including Ford.

Absolutely,love him as our home run threat,would like to see him used more in the screen game.
I think he would be excellent in that role,and could rip off some big chunks.

Y'all remember his family had a house fire obviously.

Could a better young man be in p&g?

Shocked to see The Ford Camp isn't jumping all over this one.

Blue is the most complete back on the team, and will get the lion's share of the carries come 9/1/12.

yes....he may be the best overall athlete in our backfield plus he showed maturity, strength and field awareness last year. the "fresh legs" concept that Les, Stud and Krags have implemented will be a force our adversaries will have to defend and that will, hopefully, get our receivers in man coverage and in space. please...let it begin.

His added bulk should help him out in his first half carries this season. If he's the bell cow in the first half of games, don't expect the same YPC he had last season.

I'd say has most NFL potential out of any of the backs

I was listening to mascona today and he said blue has more tackles on special teams then barrow had all last year.

Blue would have made an unreal lber.

Dude is always wrong

Not always, he's really big on Blue.

I still feel like I haven't seen enough of him to be really excited but glad to see him get more carries

The dude is mad talented...the problem is that we are STACKED at the position so it makes it hard to get enough PT...I sure hope he gets his fair share of the rock the season...

I am downright giddy about Blue this year. He has evidently been working very hard in the offseason, and he was already pretty damn good last year...Total package as a RB. I fully expect him to rush for 800-900 at like 6 a pop...
