Even behind an avg SEC OL him and Berry can be as good 1-2 punch as we’ve had in a LONG time

If he doesnt run straight into the center like he did during the bowl game.

He was just trying to help the center get a better push

All those that shite on him just tucking their tails now. He will be very good in a Kiffin offense

You obviously dont watch actual game film and instead just "cheer on the team" like my mother-in-law does.

He lacks vision, misses holes and cutbacks, and is much slower than he was pre injury. I'm not saying the guy cant run for 1k yards, but every carry you take away from Berry, is dumb.

Higher yards per carry as a freshman. Basically the same yards per carry as Berry this year while being more of the bell cow back for the majority of the year. Both will be serviceable and very good, but to act like Berry is just way above Durham is just dumb.

Why is it dumb? From what I watched, Berry shows way better vision to find the holes and actually hits them unlike Durham. Is quicker and cuts quite a bit better than Durham also. I know Durham was injured but he’s got a lot of work to do to catch up with Berry at the moment. People who refuse to notice that, well, idk what to tell you.

A week ago he was trash and the board was happy to see him go. Now that he’s coming back it’s some huge deal. Make up your mind people.

He needs to either lean up and be a fast scat back or bulk up and be an inside runner. He played in between last year and it did not work

Who’s the one that doesn’t know football?

Call me crazy, but I want guys capable of running for 1k yards on our roster.

What a stupid take

So when Durham was in the Oline decided to just block better? Was that how he average the same yards per carry? Mind you while also doing most of the pass protection. It’s cool if you don’t agree, but you’re just going into “well the film says this” without providing any evidence to the case.

Can’t analyse with our OL last year Barry Sanders would not have got 1000 yards lol

Yah I found that when Durham did find a little space he went down pretty easy. Also seemed like he nicked his ankle again this year and didn’t have the explosion most were expecting. Slow, small, and goes down easy is not a good combo. Hoping he could develop into a Doug Martin type back

I don't know that it's huge, but it's nice. He showed a lot of promise his freshman year. He played poorly last year, but he was banged up and in an awful offense.
