My father, my twin, and I have said the same exact thing..

and not just because of the 33, but also becuase of the towel, and the way he takes his strides to the outside......

I will say, that TD run versus USC looked more like a Heisman Wisconsin back than Gary James

I think James ran a 4.2 forty. How fast is Hill?

ISWYDT

James was a good receiver out of the backfield, very fast, but not the power back that Hill is. Hill is so much taller that I don't see the comparison.

Speaking of stature, Dalton and Garry were closer to TM7 than KH27 and JH33.

Garry smaller,little bit faster than JH. Hill has more power.

Garry James was more about speed. If I had to make a comparison, it would be Charles Alexander (no, not the DL). Alexander had that same combination of size, power, and speed.

Lol, Cecil with MORE speed and power? So he's some mythical bull-gazelle gene experiment? Cecil had as much power as any RB to ever play at LSU.

As for the James comparison, they do have similar running styles but Hill is soooooooo much stronger. Hill is my favorite player we've signed in 4-5 years. I remember saying he'd be better than Collins and people thought I was crazy. I've seen what Hill can do in the weight room first hand. It's insane.
