Mo Washington

[valiantsailor]

In old time football, the O-linemen were 40 lbs heavier than the D-linemen. They could physically impose themselves on the D-line and wear them down. Throw in a big back and the wear increases. TO did this and almost always owned the 4th quarter.

That weight imbalance is not true today. D-linemen now are generally just as big and more athletic than the O. Today they try to wear the D by using a fast pace. Get them gassed and don't let them catch their breath.

In short, it does not matter how big your back is if the line can't open holes for him to run through. What Robinson has going is he is small and quick. I've seen him jump through some holes that a cat would have trouble squeezing through. A big back would have been stuffed.

IMHO Mo Washington is exactly what this team needs in a RB. He is strong enough to break tackles, but more importantly he is shifty and fast. He is mobile enough to pick a new hole if the intended hole is not there. He has good hands and can get to the corner.

I know why he isnt there but we sure need him.

Yeah, if we ever play Colorado or Rutgers he sure will be our secret weapon against them. How'd he do against real defenses? That's the highlight material that matters.

But hey, if we ever need a Damon Benning level of athlete, he fits the bill. Pummels nobodies. Does zilch in big games. You always need a guy like that for the season down the stretch to take wear off your workhorse.

Again, I'll take him getting more and bigger big plays by himself than our entire team this year.

Any kid who racked up big yards with Scott Frost calling the plays is worth giving a second chance to.

Now that's a valid point.

 

[OhioHusker]

Now that's a valid point.

I believe that is my second valid point of 2020. I didn't want to peak too early.

Wow, he was a project frosh who we all knew needed some weight room time. He had some breathtaking athleticism. No one said he deserved the Heisman day one.

Well, I'm not sure that I've ever had a valid point so you have me whooped up one side and down another!

I almost spilled my drink! If it wasn't some truth to it then it wouldn't have been so well timed. LOL

Well you are two points ahead of me, Ohio. Keep up the good work!

Yeah, I didn't realize we are supposed to be making valid points. No one explained that to me when I signed up. That changes EVERYTHING!
