'26 VA RB Savion Hiter

[Vawlk Tuah]

That's unfortunately not the object of the game

Very true lol. I can't remember which game but he broke free into the third level and he intentionally ran into and through the safety for like 14 yards instead of getting more running away. Tone setting sure, but he's young and that will stop.

Can you tell me a time during Heupel’s coaching career where he did not have a great rushing offense?

Peyton Lewis was highly rated, btw.

Peyton Lewis is more physically gifted than Sampson. Now it’s just a matter of seeing if he puts everything together.

 

[Vol423]

I like Lewis but he doesn’t have the vision that some RBs have naturally.

You’re wrong. He just hasn’t been given many opportunities yet.

Yeah, never worked for Herschel, ask Bill Bates.

How many points do you get for running someone over? There's a time and a place for it of course, because sometimes there is no better option than to lower your pads. But trying to go through a defender instead of around them is generally bad strategy for a RB.

And I'm happy to have Lewis, but he ain't Walker.

You get points for crossing the goal, and credit for yards gained down the field, not laterally. Way too many backs never get over their HS success outrunning folks to the outside.

His size and speed combo give him a shot at being a very productive back and more of a homerun hitter than Bishop, neither seem to leave many yards on the field. Hoping Morris arrives ready to be the wiggle back. Solid young room to follow, with mix impacted by the OL strengths and weaknesses.

In his limited carries I believe he had the best YPC in the room. Over 6 if I remember. Good place to start.

For Walker, it was 6. Ask Bates.

We need a quality power speed typical SEC running back. Elite running backs fit any system. You don’t just settle for fits In the system exclusively. Settling for average to good backs isn’t the answer unless you want to be the Dallas Cowboys who believe any running back will do. Tennessee used to dish out strong tough fast backs that could hit the hole. To heck with settling for decent fits the system backs. We need dudes in the backfield. Johnny Jones,Reggie Cobb,Chuck Webb,Jamal Lewis, Travis Henry all bad dudes in the back field. Scat backs are a dime a dozen but you can find the strong and special like Alvin Kamara,Travis Stephens, Charlie Garner and Dylan Sampson. We need to recruit elite backs more, no settling. I would love to get Savion! GBO

Don't forget James "Little Man" Stewart!!

You sound like you're a revolutionary. You should teach RB camps on proper techniques. Forget running through the holes, gentlemen. Wait for them to close up and then lower the boom stick lol. Sounds like a winning formula.

Your right, I loved him. He also could soar at the goal line. If we were at the 1 he was going to score most every time. He had a great goal line leap, he could get way up.

He was a true freshman. Jaylen Wright “lacked vision” as a true freshman, but learned it.

Contrary to popular belief, it can be taught. Learning the offense and blocking schemes better, as well as learning to be patient and set up blocks are teachable skills.

A lot of vision is actually patience. Many young backs lack patience. Isn’t Lewis supposed to be the fastest player on the roster. My untrained eye saw lots of potential in Lewis. Big and fast is a good combination.

Thought I saw “Saving Hitler” when I saw this thread and just came here to say that. Thanks

Absolutely. He was one of the 1st players I remember watching to ever do that. I was actually gonna post that with my last post but I didn't know if people would remember. Good to know someone does. He is from Morristown which is where I'm from so I'm very familiar with him. He used to live right down the street from me.

Elite running back prospect Savion Hiter and Sims continue to talk a good amount. Hiter has a top four of Ohio State, Georgia, Michigan and Tennessee. We believe as of now it’s Michigan and Tennessee setting the pace. The Wolverines have been slightly out in front but adding Alabama transfer Justice Haynes has made that a busier room in Ann Arbor which could help Tennessee.
