I think had he never been pulled from the RB rotation he would be the top RB in the spring. I look for good things out of him. He has been stated to be the fastes guy on the team so if he can hold on to the damn ball I think he will get plenty of carries and will be a homerun threat in the back field.
agree, good thing is i remember them saying he was spliting time in practice at both RB and WR last year. i think neal may be the man this year.

Although Borque was highly publicized I'm wondering if Hill cud be the missing power back we haven't seen in a while. He definitely has the size to take a SEC schedule. Rotating Lane, Borque, Neal and Hill cud be fun to watch (just ask LSU about a 4RB rotation)

I dunno about Neal. He seems to fumble too much. I do like the kid though. Im most eager to see what Lane can do. Even D Young now that he will have a yr to put on weight. We'll see about Borque (sp)

bourque has got the right attitude for a RB, hit them before they can hit you.

I don't really care to see what Devrin can do besides kick returns. Looking forward to see what Bourque can do though.

Neal has the speed to take it to the house on any play, plus he's a physical guy with great size. He just has to hold on to the football. I think he has a break out year.

The only reason I didn't pick Neal was because he puts the ball on the ground too much. I do believe Neal may be the best overall athlete.
