Almost the same field position, ran up the middle then broke it outside. Excited to get this guy. I don't know what it is but that is one of my favorite runs by an Auburn tailback. There have been so many good ones but that one is up there! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A that moment in that game that was such an "in your face" statement against Bama. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sizzle 3,909 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Could be solid down the line for us. We gone need some big time RB’s in the next couple classes because we only got 2 more years of tank before he’s gone 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timbeaux38 299 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 His film seems to indicate that his 3 star rating may be a bit on the low side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlight films often do...but he's certainly someone we need, given the attrition. We'll have to wait and see how much of an impact he makes, but I suspect he's going to have better blocking than recent AU backs have had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's more than just Henderson out there in the South. Also Quinshon Judkins is one who is likely underrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have to wait and see how much of an impact he makes, but I suspect he's going to have better blocking than recent AU backs have had. There are a couple of full games of his on YouTube. Quick thoughts from watching one: JH is a tough kid who plays with a lot of heart, but he is not physically dominating. He does play hard and take good advantage of his opportunities. Measure that observation against the fact that he touches the ball on about 95% of offensive plays, including punt returns, and also plays defense. I'm hoping that getting some dedicated coaching and training at just RB, and getting to play in an offense where everyone on the field is not keyed on him will give him more room to blossom further. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good insight. Thanks for that additional info. I'm always looking for the next Kenny Irons. Maybe he could be that kind of guy. KI wasn't physically dominating, either, but he just had that crazy toughness and leg drive and somehow became one of our most talented backs of the last 20 years. Similar build with this guy, I believe. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They call that targeting now although I am not sure how that would be enforced when its your teammate. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
