All his CB's say Mississippi State but if we just offered than maybe we have a chance. He visited once before so he's at least seen the campus. Would be a nice get. I'd like for us to add two high school kids. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im definitely not an expert on talent somebody else would have to comment but those two things stood out to me. Watch Hunter catch that RB from behind on the first hudl clip and that punt return he had looks pretty nasty too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chizhead 618 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Good vision, good feet that keep moving, not great speed but good speed with bursts and cuts really good https://www.hudl.com/video/3/9829579/5fe42313a023891b5ca71ae7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbone4jc 2,241 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Like his power. Looks pretty fast to me. That 1 punt return he had like 8 would be tacklers and he escapes?? WHAT!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuburnTiger4Life 2,225 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Looks like a solid RB2 or RB3 if Worm comes back. Solid pickup 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter is the guy that tackles him coming from way behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AU80cruiser 1,102 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 @augolf1716 Thanks, I need to go add him to my list of elite big RBs.

Beaker 2,457 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 The man is a human highlight reel. I saw a lot of skills, even a nice catch from a bad pass. What is he missing besides 12-15 pounds? seems a little under rated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dupree was obviously bought and paid for and was the product of the coddled athlete syndrome. He was literally petted to death and never had to strive for anything. Not to mention, it was common knowledge that he was not the brightest star in the midnight sky. It was sad enough that BSPN did a 30-30 story on him. Had he had the drive that Bo and Herschel had, he might have been called the greatest RB in history. He was a monster. I actually saw him working security at the casino in Philadelphia and he most definitely was not in playing shape 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ended up buying several. He comes and trail rides with us pretty frequently. Awesome man. edit- As far as your opinions of him, I do not know how we was then, but he is nothing but class now. If he was indeed like you said, he has definitely grown out of it. Edited January 12, 2021 by Tigerpro2a 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was used to having everything given to him That was my dad at AUburn. He signed in in ‘70. Went through spring practice and wasn’t used to being a small fish in a big pond. Transferred and washed out from that school as well. He never seemed to be overly interested in football when I was a kid (he’d watch my brother but encouraged me to stay in band and away from injury) He’d watch and enjoy certain players but wasn’t necessarily a fan. He seemed to kind of stay a legend with some of the folks in the community that were around in his heyday but he was huge for a RB then. I think he signed with AU as an LB.

Kid is a 4 star and looks really good. If we are not looking, maybe he is already too far down the path with other option; or maybe there are other things that could affect his coming to AU like grades. I have no idea though.
