It's almost like he stops and the defender just falls off.

He's about a inch shorter and 10 lbs lighter than Justin Vincent's freshmen year.

I was young but I never understood what made Vincent so effective his freshman year. Not crazy fast or elusive, but certainly wasn’t a power back from what I remember. He was just hard to tackle.

Its really hard to describe but I see the same in durham.

Maybe it's just increase balance and leg strength. Both are insanely fast obviously

I tend to agree, I see it too, but Vincent didn’t have near the speed Durham does. According to google, Vincent ran a 4.65 40.

Maybe post knee injury and all those red bull and vodkas at reggies. His freshmen year he had wheels

log center of gravity, and he keeps his legs moving after contact. Great balance and good speed.

Durham is good

Watched that game as a 16 year old writing emails to my dad the quarter summaries while he was working in the Middle East. Brings back some great memories.

Are you saying he’s a flash in the pan, too?

I’ve never seen a dude fall off so fast after a freshman season.

Few football players in college have Durham's speed.

Vincent was closer to 4.5 in high school. In 2002 Barbe High School set the Louisiana Class 5A 4 X 100 M Relay record at 40.78. To date it has not been challenged. Vincent and his teammates were all easily sub 4.65. Barbe also took first place in the 4 x 200 M relay at the state meet.

When he was caught by the Oakie safety?

Agree with you but who else would have broken the tackle at the line?
