RB height and weight:

CEH 5’8”, 209
Barry Sanders 5’8”, 201
Darren Sproles. 5’6”, 190
MJD 5’7”, 207
Ray Rice. 5’8”, 212
CJ Anderson. 5’8”, 225
Frank Gore. 5’9”, 216
Marshall Faulk. 5’10”, 211
Emmitt Smith. 5’9”, 216

And many other great RBs of similar stature.

Right now CEH is 6k votes behind some scrub from Nebraska.

Thread title is fricking stupid.

I personally think Emmitt Smith is a better comparison. Sanders shiftiness and elusiveness is on a level no other player has ever had.

Barry Sanders is arguably the best RB of all time . You can’t be serious.

209 > 201 I get the math. Barry Sanders was the greatest running back in the history of football. Unbelievable change of direction and balance. CEH has similar qualities but let's not get carried away here..... Awesome for Clyde to even be mentioned along side Barry Sanders. Just like Burrow who would have thought CEH would be this good? Those 2 guys should be All-Americans this season!

What i thought was completely obvious, i was NOT being serious about talent. The purpose of the post is to draw attention to the ignorance floating around that CEH’s size is a negative. Those that can’t figure that out didn’t read the post or are not too bright.

Emmett was still more powerful.

The Sanders comparison is dumb simply because Barry had that extra gear CEH just does not have, and he was setting rushing records in college for a team that had NO other weapons.

You seem to be the only one that gets it. Glad the board isn’t entirely filled with dimwits.

For the rest of you, to calm your nerves, i do think Barry is the GOAT

I could see the argument for calling ceh a Barry Sanders light. But Sanders was one of the best to ever do it.

I think it would be more accurate and just as complimentary to say CEH has a lot in common with Sanders...

OK, if that’s the case, lemme be clear that i was being sarcastic. The post was compelled by hearing for the past 3 years how “small” or undersized CEH is, when, arguably, he is nearly the identical size of some of the greatest backs of all time.

To be fair you didn't have near the athletes you have now a days. A lot different time these days. 6'6 270 lb guys running 4.5's not saying he wouldn't have been incredible but would have been nice to see how Barry and company would have fared vs that type of athlete

Let me know when CEH surpasses 2,850 yards and 42 touchdowns in 12 games. In today’s pass-happy offense, not sure Barry Sanders’ numbers will ever be broken.
