Yeah he seemed lost with two defenders in front of him on one of Sam’s runs.

Great to see him do well.
Issue may be blocking. Remember 2nd down on his 1st series in. Leavitt was pushing him forward to block and Berry whiffed on both defenders.

Gage has looked serviceable at RB2, but nothing special. Berry could potentially give you a different type of weapon from Jones.

He’s not very smart then is what you’re saying

He’s got the ability to just take one on any play. His reps almost looked like an audition too. Go show us what you can do.
To me, it seemed like they've been wanting to get him involved, they were just working with him on some things to have him ready to be successful. I don't know if it's reading the zone blocking scheme, his strength, whatever it was, there were things they felt like he wasn't ready on. Durham is the same, I think. They were playing Gage and you can't convince me he wa a better than them.

Didn’t really see the burst I thought he had last year. Maybe I was drunk though
Yes, you were drunk. He looked electric and close to breaking it. Averaged 8.3 you on his 7 runs. Also had like a 30-yard gain on a pass called back due to holding. He needs to learn whatever his assignments are better when he is in there, but he's somebody I hope we get the ball to in the open field as the season goes on. He just can't fumble like he did last year.

He needs to be involved
You don’t pay him that much nil to watch him walk in the offseason

Kid is great with the ball in his hands; he’s not very good when the ball isn’t in his hands. In 2026, that’s not good enough.

He was getting chewed out by Kevin Smith for missing a block on one of Sam’s designed runs.
He didn't miss a block, he didn't even go look for anybody to block. Leavitt was pushing him in the back trying to get around him.
I told my wife that 22 was coming out after I saw that and that is what happened. He gave zero effort on that play and was yanked.

We need him out there, he’s too good with the ball in his hands. Not sure if they trust him enough yet to be RB2, he got his arse chewed constantly last night when he wasn’t the ball carrier. Maybe we use him as a satellite player and work him in gradually as the #2? Hopefully we’re up big on Mcneese early and he can get multiple quarters as the primary back. We definitely need his big play capability.

I didn’t see the game yet. Heard on radio that leavit was forcing him to go find someone to block and shite U.S. he looked lost on his assignment more then 3 times I can think of.
Was he electric with the ball in his hands minus pass protection and understanding the play calls?

It’s up to him what is next. Fix his issues or ride the bench and then move on. He must make the plays without the ball or he is done with this offense. Coach will find someone who will get it done.

Look, I like Dillon Jones who is a good tough, bruising straight ahead type of runner, but I was finally glad to see Berry get in the game. Berry offers a nice change of pace RB who hits hole faster than Jones using his speed and shiftiness. I wish Kiffin would play Caden Durham some too because he is good at hiding behind big blockers with his low center of gravity and getting down the field. The Gage kid wasn't doing anything to me, I don't understand why he was playing in front of Berry or Durham.

Put Berry in the slot when Jones is in the backfield. Run inside, run outside, or pass with that personnel group.
I get he played in a lower class in HS, but he was a freak in 7-on-7 at the national level.

the offense hasn't moved any where near warp speed thus far. Especially tonight.
Right? I’ve still yet to see the same fast paced ultra creative offense that Lane and Weiss was running at Ole Miss with LSU so far. Idk maybe Lane is simplifying the offense and keeping a normal pace to try and get Leavitt comfortable

You’d think Berry would realize that’s the exact reason that he’s been 3rd or 4th string RB all year so far and that he’d actually try to block. But I guess he just doesn’t get the hint.

He should be shifted to wide receiver, has the potential to be another Josh Reed. He seems to have good hands and elite speed . Get him the ball in space and he could be electric. Maybe not during the season, but this could be a spring experiment. He could also run a couple sweeps each game. Try to get him 8 to 10 touches. With the portal and high school recruiting the RB room could quickly fill up without him.
