My college coach son and I.
DJ - you look like you're running through a tulip patch out there. Definitely not AE, that is for sure.

like AE when he is going down. Seems to lack any power at this point.

I'm not sure we're talking about the same player. While he

does run very upright, he rarely went down on first contact, but rather kept going forward. Like I said last night, he reminds me of Travis Zachary in that regard, who was also very successful running that way.

And he turned out pretty good. He could've been so much better if it didn't take more than a fingertip to bring him down.

Running upright...

Places the body in a vulnerable position. Center of gravity is too high and less force is required to imbalance the runner. Ball is more exposed as well. The young lads will learn to lower their center of gravity. More effective cut moves will result.

Lattimore runs with a very low center of gravity ....

... and that has obviously put him in a very vulnerable position.
Football is a violent game. You are going to run the risk of getting hurt regardless of how you run.

Odd, but my wife (who knows very little about fb) noticed the same thing and asked me why he does that.
He seemed to do very well though.
