I'd rather not get into another discussion on how many times you've been wrong. However, as long as you keep bringing it up...

He is almost a mirror image of Alfred Blue(LSU), tall 6'2-6'3 with a weight of about 200. Running style very similar to Blue as well, more a slasher upright style.

I would consider him a change of pace back.

As far as his recruiting, anything is possible, wouldn't be surprised if he commits to the University of Pluto.

I like watching Blue and Hilliard run for you guys I won't lie. Hilliard smashes teeth in while Blue seems to score everytime he's in the game for some reason. He would start and be a star here. If Bourque is anywhere near close to Blue i'd be happy.

I am not saying Bourque couldn't start nor Blue but there running styles and body types don't lend them to be an every down type of back in the SEC.

Blue is effective because by the time he comes in, usually in the 3rd/4th quarters the opposing D has already had a steady dose of RBs. Blue actually started out as a freshman last year as the #2 back, he vaulted over both Ford and Ware. However, by the end of the year both Ford and Ware had solidified themselves.

As far as Bourque, he is a change of pace back and would be more effective in a Blue-ish kind of role which is why most schools were looking at him as an athlete, WR or even defensive player.

Unfortunately, I don't know Bourque is going to have the patience to work out at any position.

Heard Gore got a release from LSU, I don't know if this would effect Bourque decision to keep his commit or not. Gore got some very limited carries, most had him in the Holiday type role due to his small size. He is listed on some rosters as an RB but on others as a WR.

The Vols original offered Gore back in 2009-2010.

OK we get it. You are worthless to the board. As in, not a soul in the world would care if you fell off the face of the earth tomorrow. Carry on with your lack of contribution, you embossed carbuncle. :hi:

Tall backs do get chopped on and take a lot of punishment but they are slashers too. Which I think could help with avoiding the shots. Blue would do very well in our offense. He wouldn't be asked to carry the ball 30 times a game. Bourque would split carries and he'd be a nice option to go along with Lane.

I agree. Lynxvol is a douchebag.

Jk Lynx :biggrin:

But for real? Why be so mean to a fellow Vol fan. Save it for the trolls.
