Should have been done this. Hopefully we can get him back. Both him and Berry under Lane will make an incredible tandem. People forget this guy didn't play the first 2 games and was injured the last 8 games, and still ran for 750 at 5.4 ypc and totaled over 1000 yards and 8 TDs from scrimmage as a true freshman.
If you want a reference point of true freshman RBs, Leonard Fournette ran for 1030 at 5.5 ypc and 10 TDs. He had 1160 yards and 10 TDs from scrimmage playing the entire season healthy.

Offensive line that blocked or opens holes will help. Frank Wilson is gone and I’m glad. It is time to start clean on offense

He’s a good back but simply had to play through injuries and trying to counter the awful coaching from Wilson. It’s not a shock that nearly every running back since 2022 has regressed under Wilson’s coaching.
The scheme and hopefully better blocking will make him a star if he can get healthy again.
Guy showed flashes but injuries took away his burst. Hopefully he comes back and heals up. Is a very good blocker as well.

Berry/Durham in a Kiffin system would be nice. 
Would still like a short yardage thumper on the roster.

Would love to retain CD. Maybe some of that track speed comes back 2 years post injury.

What I’ve seen on other teams, is that they have some dawgs. Those others have fight, battle, grit, and some never give up. I have not seen that from our backs. Maybe it was Frank Wilson!

Good. Hated to lose him. Get him healthy. He’s a much better fit in Coach Kiffin's scheme than Brian Kelly’s

Would love to get Durham back.

I feel like things have been fairly quiet about him as of late.

Kevin helping coach the playoffs has affected this and trying to catchup. Finally, some type of relationship is being made now. Kevin has met the family and will be interesting to see what happens.

Like Hester would tell you, possibly the least coaching up position on the field is at RB. It's a "you either have it or you don't" type of position. You can be better blocking and catching the ball, but running, and breaking tackles and having vision and making guys miss is all talent. The stupidity i see every day about this because people now hate Frank is mind boggling.
I thought me saying this a billion times would have gotten through many of these thick skulls. Only 2 RBs in Frank's first 2 years back didn't average over 5 yards a carry. Both of those guys still averaged 4.9 (which is damn near what Lacy averaged under Kevin Smith). Even 2024 Durhsm averaged 5.4 ypc. The truth is Denbrock schemes his run game way better (see Notre Dame), and we had a talented OL unit that blocked well for that scheme.

Just saw him at Stabs! Hopefully he’ll come back.

He is a good back but you can tell he has been injured and I honestly think he could shed some weight. His change of direction is not a twitchy as Lacy for example. Durham is the type of back that needs carries and he eventually breaks off 2 or 3 big runs, he needs high volume and that's why he will never look as good sharing a lot of carries. Let's wait to see how the running game is under Kiffin, Berry is definitely a better back out of the shotgun RPO stretch plays. Durham is more of an old school back.

Looked over weight and slow all season. Maybe kevin smith will put him on the kewan lacy diet

Our backs all regressed in these areas and Frank’s rotations were pure, unadulterated dog shite. frick off with this shilling nonsense. The RB Coach doesn’t get a free pass when his players are regressing and not executing.
Running more gap scheme with the spacing this offense creates is going to help the backs. And if you look at Ole Miss’ RBs, they know how to catch the ball and play in pass pro. Now that will improve, as well.

I know I’ll get downvoted but go ahead. Durham has got more potential than Lacy. I want to see how he does in this new scheme with a new RB coach. Bro ran for 200+ in the first half of the 6A state title game in Texas. He runs a legit 10.4 in the 100. Him and Berry could be the best RB tandem in CFB next year.
Posted on 1/11/26 at 4:32 am to tigerforever7
Yes. He was a top 10 RB in his class and I think he was too low. He ran for 200+ in the 1st half of the 6A Texas state championship game. He has been legitimately clocked at 10.4 in the 100. He was also apart of the 2nd fastest 4x100 relay team in history (high school).

I’m a believer that Durham could explode with a good RB coach & scheme. Needs to stay healthy, but him & Berry can be a very good duo in a Kiffin offense.
Yes, he’s dealt with some lingering injuries that have been kept kind of quiet
I mean, honestly they just wasn’t anything but pile of 300 pound men to try to run through that just doesn’t work
He was our clear starter, so don’t need to be losing quality backs who are already on campus

I am a big fan of Durham. He definitely regressed thisnyear behind a line he didn’t trust.
People whose has no vision just need to put on the 2024 tape. It’s there he was just off thisnyear.
