lol, they are pretty solid about pulling up comments. Agree with the Myslinski comment, I haven't heard if he has even been approved by the NCAA yet for an extra year.
that's not how an Iowa offense works. Moulton had 170 carries this year, compared to Jaz with 60. So, I'd say it matters.
Well, Jaz was banged up, missed some games and was maybe in the doghouse a bit but yeah, I get your point. We normally ride the hot hand/situation and no, no union cards there. KF hates fumbles, thus a few of those and if the RB room is healthy you are going down a few notches.
Moulton will get majority of carries. It may end up only being 1 more.
They don't. If you asked them to name all the players who got in trouble twice with police as a true freshmen and then started for 3 years they would say "no one". Then when confronted with the receipts they would still say it never happened.
agree Moulton is trusted , has produced , He will bell cow with Phillips / Williams fighting for short yardage and goal line , Very good and deep .
I think he’s a good back but he’s not proven to be a game changer. There were several runs this year where if he were a little stronger, a little faster, had a little more balance, he would have broken some big runs. I was hoping he’d taken that step last season but maybe he will next year.
He was stuck replacing Kaleb Johnson, so that has something to do with it. It also would have been nice to see a heavier mix with Jaz in it.
I'm assuming they had to pay Diaz, he will be on the field next year.
Moulton is an excellent back and should get majority of carries imo. What am I missing?
Good receiver as well. I would like him to be featured a little more in the passing game
Similar to the two receivers brought in two years ago that didn't do much?
He's really good at seeing the hole, making one cut, and going. The problem is that he's not big enough to run thru a lot of contact and he's not fast enough to outrun guys. Great vision, but avg skillset.....at least that's what I see.
Good analysis.
YAC, kid was running against stacked boxes all year. He also has a nice cut. He is missing top end speed though based on film.
Sometimes it matters, sometimes it doesn't. Depends on the mix, but the RB room looks solid.
Akrum Wadley is one of the best backs Iowa's had in the last forty years. He was amazing, and he did some of his best work at the most crucial times, such as against Penn State. Anybody close to Wadley would be welcome. I haven't seen enough of McNeil to compare him yet, but I hope you're right.
for a guy who isn’t very big or very fast he always gets positive yards. unlike other backs he doesn’t hesitate or run into the back of his own guys or get caught by pursuit until he’s past the los. granted he doesnt hit home runs but it’s usually 2nd and 6, never 2nd and 12 that likely gets us 3 extra sets of downs per game
Agreed, which is why KF and Lester like him so much....and I do too. I just think if we want to take that next step from "almost" in the CFP, to "in" the CFP, we need a couple of skill position guys that have the ability to break one at any moment.
