Big John Kelly

[austin_vol]

I have a feeling that John Kelly is going to have a coming out party on Saturday. He is going to be much better than many people realize. I call at least 75 yards for him

Huge opportunity! The door is open, RUN on through............

 

[TexasVolfan1]

Looks like he has great vision and good speed from the limited snaps I've seen. I'm excited to see him get some extended playing time

 

[nagle]

yeah hope he has break-out game this weekend. we truly need him.

JK's highlights from the Bowling Green game

Not sure that he's had any extended action other than this but if anyone finds more clips I'd like to see

 

[hardyemt_p]

but but but wait he was just a 3 star. jk

 

[aaronvol]

he packs a punch. one of his gifts is hitting you when you don't think he is going to hit you. walter paytonesque in that way. travis stephensesque as well...

Not cool man.. his sexuality is his own business

In all seriousness though he's impressed me when he's been in. I think we have more depth than we think at RB.

 

[DNBVOL]

He does run rather violently!!! Gettem J.Kelly!!!

 

[Volle]

JK runs N-S!

 

[VolinDalton]

I hate that Hurd isn't gonna be on the field this week.

That being said, I am excited to see what Kelly can do against real competition behind the starting offensive line. Kelly has an unreal burst that can get through the first level. If he has some legit blocking, heaven help their secondary. Kelly has 22 MPH speed tracked via GPS. This is a glimpse into our future, IMO.

I'm happy for John. I think he'll make everybody proud.

 

[Vol_n_LR]

Lets just hope there aren't any skateboarding accidents.

I'd like to see the 1st 200 yd rusher since Foster on Saturday.

75 yards in and of itself doesn't mean much.

If it's 75 yards on 8-10 carries, with a long of 30ish or more, and Kamara gets a decent workload, UT's in good shape.

If it's 75 yards on 20 carries with a long run of 8-10...long day.

huh?

 

[amillz]

Was Kelly announced as the starter or is he backing up Kamara?

Don't think anything has been announced, including whether or not Hurd is out for sure. If Hurd is unable to go, surely it's AK starting with JK backing him up.

What if it's 75 yards on 3 carries, all for TD's? Will it be a shorter day?

 

[BrentwoodVFL]

I totally agree. Kelly can ball and TAM will double down on preparing for a full dose of Kamara.

Hmm - Hurd had 95 yards on 26 carries against Florida (average 3.65)

75 yards on 20 carries = 3.75

Florida wasn't a long day.

JH hasn't practiced all week, no-one will say it but one could speculate that he has a concussion. Hoping the best for Jalen. :crossfingers:
