Can Lyn J pick up the slack and be as effective as ETN


Jan 16, 2020, 9:50 AM

When he leaves?

Or will the freshman this year beat him out, Chez ?

Lyn J Averaged over 6 yards per carry in a backup role. He is going to be excellent next year.

Lynn J will be fine, but ### good as the backs are on campus, Bowman is by far the most talented. If and when he gets on campus in late May and I say if because the portal has made it so easy for a kid to change his mind. No one could convince me that he isn't bombarded daily with, "you know you can still go to Fla, FSU or Miami" just hit the portal!!

How can you say Bowmen is the most talented. I assume you are going by star rankings right. Kid has not stepped foot on a college field and he’s more talented than Lyn J, Rencher, Mellusi and Dukes.

Not a knock on Lyn J, Bowman is just THAT good. Lyn is good but he’s not great and he’s not good enough to carry the load when needed like we could trust ETN with and his blocking is really really poor. His speed and cuts are wonderful but as far as complete like ETN I think it’s a massive gap and his YPC are skewed as he didn’t take many “quality reps” early in games and have a ton of success.

He could, but he would have to sit a year unless granted a waiver by the NCAA. Highly doubtful for a player with this much star power that's probably going play 3 years without redshirting unless injury of course.

Lyn J needs to hit the weight room hard. Not sure he can be the power runner ETN was. Granted, ETN was a special cat with power and quick acceleration like no other. Lyn J has the speed, just not the power - yet. We will see how it plays out.

I remember the first time I saw ETN get through the line...


Jan 16, 2020, 10:17 AM

and hit that second gear, I knew he was on another planet. We have had some really good backs over the last decade. I have never seen anything like him.

Very good but not as explosive as ETN. Needs to be stronger.

I’m some what surprised that Dixon got ONE carry in the championship game. Getting him more involved as a runner/receiver could have created some opportunities for others. Unusual play calling for a big game like this

I agree, although they did use him on the trick play to Higgins that put us up 17-7.

I'm not as confident in LJD now as I was before the season. We'll see.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

In a word - No.


Jan 16, 2020, 12:56 PM

ETN was on another level. I can't speak to the frosh.
