A lot of us always wondered what he could do with a little blocking in front of him.

Get job Pacheco. Kinda weird calling a 25 year old Pop though.
Isaih earned that title early in life. You tell him you don't like it. 😂

I am so happy for this young man to be seeing success after having such a difficult upbringing, seeing two of his siblings killed.

"Known as ‘Pop’
It’s through sports that Isaih has found an outlet. He’s known throughout Vineland as “Pop.” He earned the nickname playing football in the Vineland midget leagues. During one game, he ran around the end and devoured a Penns Grove quarterback.
“Everybody was like, ‘Oh, wow, you popped him,’” he said. “They’ve been calling me Pop ever since.”

Well now that I know it because he hits and not because he's thought of as someone's dad I like it.

Go Pop.

That SI link is comical. Pacheco never had a real change to display his talent at Rutgers, except a couple of times, such as when he broke that TD run against Michigan. Huge miss by the scouts.


"One-Liner:
Big running back, who struggles to break tackles and create on his own, Pacheco has shown the potential to crack a roster and compete for a spot."

"Cons:
There is a lack of explosion on Pacheco’s film. He doesn’t burst through holes, allowing defenders to catch up to him and prevent big carries. Even at his size, Pacheco isn’t overly physical. He rarely breaks tackles and is usually brought down on first contact. As a runner, Pacheco’s pad level is very high, and he runs too upright. Pacheco is stiff, making him more of a downhill back. His agility and quickness is just average at best."

Very similar to why RU legendary Al Malekoff was called BOOMIE. When he ran the rock and when he tackled people ,in H.S.,[Newark South Side, now Shabazz} you heard it all over the field.A long time ago. beaced had a full head of blonde hair and was knick named "Whitey'' WHEN i CADDIED AS A KID.​

Very happy for him. Always thought he had the potential to be great, even from when he played in the Spring game before his freshman season in 2018. I was certainly not alone in that either, as per the thread back then...

Did you see him in the Spring game? Looked like our best RB, with regard to his combination of speed, power and elusiveness - reminds me of a guy named Ray Rice (not saying he'll be that good, but I see similarities).

He gained over 500 yards in each of his four years here and learned to block and catch. He is doing this in his first year, not like he needed a few years to be developed in the league. RU was good for him and prepared him well for the NFL.
