I guess that foot injury really slowed him down. It's gonna be fun next year, watching him in this offense!

Wish we could witness that 4.2 speed with him in an LSU uniform at least once. He’s the fastest slowest player LSU has ever fielded I believe.

Anyone can run a 4.2 with the right person timing you

Idk how healthy Durham has been during his 2 years at LSU

He was pretty obviously banged up much of this year. Overall seems like a good kid and has a lot of potential if given the right weapons. Like not running behind a shower curtain offensive line and having a somewhat innovative offense.

You don't seem very informed. I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt, the other option is you are not very bright.

True

Durham ran sub 10.30 in the 100m in high school. Can’t fake that….dude had elite speed.

It was well known in Texas he was a great football player and track star. Always in the news.

And you need to eat a dick. I know he’s been injured jackass. But I’ve still yet to see that 4.2 speed at LSU. Even his freshman year before he got injured.

Some people have “football speed”. Some have “track speed”. (The best have both).

Jeremy Hill ran a 4.5, at best. Yet very few people ran him down from behind. Durham has track speed, but he rarely looks very fast on the field

Right?

It’s so weird to see a confirmed track guy constantly get caught from behind. That injury must be worse than they let out.

I saw plenty of that speed in his freshman season. Then came the injuries. Gotta get him healthy, and give him some lanes to actually run through.

He was playing hurt most of his freshman year. He dislocated two toes in the South Alabama game. He had maybe 25 carries when he was not hurt.

As far as your cuisine suggestion, I am not inclined to do that, so you go ahead and have another, if that is your inclination. eers:

Yes, between his foot injury and "frick up Frank" coaching him down, I think healthy Cade can be special in this offense with position coach Smith and the Lane/Weis offense.

Thank God, no more ridiculous RB rotations.

Definitely some real truth in that. For some guys, the gear seems to slow their performance more than others.

Hate to break it to you, since Tigerdroppings hates him for some reason, but he may be the best LSU media person, and he obviously has more connections that scream they do.

CD had a few healthy carries early his freshman year

South Carolina longer TD where he bounced it left and into the EZ showed his burst

When he got caught From behind 2nd half of last season a few times it was obviously the injury

Not sure what the deal was this year though, his vision wasn’t there but maybe it was because the line was garbage.

Berry seemed to have way better patience and ability to bounce it when needed.

Hopefully CD comes in next year healthy and leaner so he can be counted on to catch the ball in space

He hasn’t been the same since his injury.

He’s put on some bad muscle weight since being here, he’s lost a ton of agility and balance but looks to have strengthened his upper half quite a bit. I don’t think our S&C program was worth a shite if I’m being honest.
