How did we miss on Issac Brown?

Not in our scheme. He'd be 2 yards and a cloud of dust running into Cooper and Carpenter all game.

That's actually a good point. I like to figure his talent would fit in any scheme but you're probably right on this one

I don't see any scenario he's not our best back. There's plenty of space in our run game for him to make defenders miss in the second and third level for big plays.

He's not a miss. We signed Lyles and Hellcat. I hate when fans do this.

We are loaded at RB and Louisville is not. Players see the field early at programs that don't have depth. If Lyles, Hellcat, or CJ were at Louisville, they'd be balling out as well. This is the dilemma for high school recruits. Go to top programs and wait your turn or go to a mid tier program and play early.

Also, Brown is a smaller back. Mario likes the power backs, which I wouldn't be surprised if CJ transfers. CJ would shine in an offense that stresses speed over power. I wish he'd get more playing time and touches.

Look at B. Smith. Swiss Army knife and terrific weapon. Can line up as a WR, RB, whatever. Creates impossible mismatch, especially if they go no huddle and he splits out wide, defense can’t sub and they have to put a LB on him. Zero chance he’d have ever been used like that here. Just not how Dawson would use him.

I'm pretty happy on who we have. I'm good with Fletcher and Lyle as our 1-2 punch next season. Hopefully Ajay stays. But still you hate to lose a local kid who is elite to somebody else. I take this as a fun conversation to have. Am I pi$$ed....no but I have no problem if some of our fans are

Exactly. The same thing happens in the NFL. It's about the right scheme fit. Getting the most out of what your guy does best.

I hate to say it, but I wouldn't come to Miami if your a speed back. Mario doesn't value them as a feature back. He's about smash mouth football with big physical backs.

Why you want Ajay to stay? He didnt even touch the rock today I dont think? lol.. So he can just rot just in case? Dude should see what Brashard is doing and go find a good spot where he can actually play college ball and tote the rock while he still has time. Kid is talented enough not to be on sidelines 99% of season

Yup he’s another brashard smith… he’s tearing it up at SMU now that he’s not trying to pretend to be a wr anymore.

Dawsons running scheme is very boring and I don’t think he’s be nearly successful especially when we have a bigger version of them in CJ who we seem to only want to split out wide

Why do I want Ajay to stay? Cause I want good talent to stay on my team. With the running back position you could lose 3 out of 5 backs very easily in a season and be down to ur 4th or 5th best back. Texas has lost their top 2 backs this season. If we lose Ajay then I really hope Mario gets a 2nd back in the 2025 class. So yes I want Ajay to stay
