RB Dante Dowdell -> Nebraska

[LP1]

Sure, against opposition that didn't have a whole lot of speed. You do realize the Big Ten is a completely different level of talent?

I do understand your concern; however, he's a 4* for a reason. He doesn't have elite speed but once he breaks through the line he's very difficult to bring down.

Reported to run an electronic 4.65 40. Isn’t that about 4.45 hand held? He certainly is fast enough.

But he is slow!

He isn't a burner.  He isn't going to wow you with his speed.  He is a power back that can wear down the defense. You have to think that Ole Miss is really going to go after him bc they just parted ways with their 2 year starter.  Hope Nebraska leaves a great impression on him when he comes here.

Yep.  It is 4.41 handheld using the conversion.  Correct, not going to outrun many in open field, but if his feet are quick and has good vision, with his power, he is definitely fast enough to get up field and be a great rb

I bet he runs a handheld 4.65 watching his film but I like the way he runs with strength, balance, and knows when to be aggressive and when to be patient.

Kinda reminds me of a slower Adrian Peterson.  Hate to ask but was Mike Rozier a bruiser or a combination of both power and speed?  I ask bc he reminds me of him as well.

Mike Rozier was fast and could break tackles.

Mike Rozier was fast and could break tackles.

And, he had the shiftiness to make a sharp cut and turn on the burners.

Please read all the posts.  That was sarcasm.

https://clutchpoints.com/nebraska-football-news-cornhuskers-coach-pitched-oregon-transfer-dante-dowdell Good read on how EJ Barthel got Dante Dowdell to be interested in Nebraska.  Apparently wasn't able to redshirt at Oregon and he played in 6 games.  Felt it was a wasted season and wanted to go where he was needed not wanted.

So, reading through this thread with people describing what type of back he is, it has me thinking of Devine Ozigbo. Would that be accurate?
