I'm tired of seeing our RBs run into the back of blockers when there's open field to one side or the other. Agreed. That is a special talent our RB's seem to possess and can't get coached out of. My guess is it's a combo of OL blocking and "sense" as the play is developing. Quote Link to comment

I think Yant has decent vision and I think Ajay Allen has very high level vision. Quote Link to comment
admo Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Big time get. Exciting player. Nice job Applewhite Man that room is filled up. Unfortunately for some, the writing is on the wall for them. Will likely see some attrition happening. 1 Quote Link to comment
TGHusker Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I think Allen will be the next great back at Nebraska. He has vision, speed, power, stop and go and change of direction ability (shiftiness) and most importantly confidence to the point of cockiness - which we need. 1 Quote Link to comment

I think we will se a legit #1 back with 1 or 2 guys spelling him. This every week a different guy gets the start and nobody is ever able to get into a rhythm or gain confidence because he's only getting to start sporadically is hopefully done. The best RB's will play, no more committee RBs anymore 1 1 Quote Link to comment
