Marlon Lucky Healthy

[ironmike]

According to the World Herald, Marlon Lucky is 100% healthy and ready to go for the Gator Bowl.

 

Many on this board prefer Helu to Lucky, and in the last few games we've really seen what Roy can bring to the table. However, I think having Lucky available as well makes us much more potent, especially in the passing game. He is definitely the better pass blocker, and much better on the screen play and the wheels routes. And don't forget his passing ability. I would bet we'll see a halfback pass against Clemson. I hope Watson is putting in some wrinkles to get both Helu and Lucky on the field at the same time.

Good to hear that Lucky is healthy again. Hopefully he can have a pretty good game to help his draft stock!

plus, being lucky's last game, i'm sure everything will be pulled outta the bag... with lucky 100% i will not be surprised at all to see him as a slot receiver a few times, and some looks that include both marlon and roy.... i'm glad for him... kid's been a class act here..

lucky being healthy for the game i think will be a big factor with his recieving skills out of the backfield

Great to hear. Hope he has a nice game to improve his future stock and more importantly help us win! GBR

HELU is the better back period. Not even close

No he isn't. That is an uneducated comment.

 

Helu maybe a better runner, maybe. Probably is. He isn't even close in pass pro, and Lucky is a far better receiver. Lucky is faster and stronger. Helu is quicker in making people miss, but some of his success is that teams weren't ready for him. They were preparing for, guess who? Marlon Lucky. Marlon wasn't recruited for a spread offense, and yet he looked great when healthy. If you don't understand all the aspects of the game, don't make a blanket statement like that.

OMG not his damn argument again!!!

I got to thinkin about this...how about put Helu in the backfield and put Lucky out as a WR, and run the fake handoff to Helu and hand it to Lucky play that we used to run the past few years a lot.

 

Like such:

And then throw maybe!

Lucky's more premedidated in his running style IMO. Helu can take very little and make something out of it. Would love to see them both in the backfield on Jan. 1

What is better, Redwine (not Jarvis) or white wine? Both will "loosen up" our wimmin (as our new board members from Clemson say). It is good to have an option for different situations, defenses or defensive wimmin.
