Same memory. Sed Irvin, Sr. was a very good running back and proved as much at Michigan State, but like RVA wrote, UM was stacked at that time and for as good as Sed Sr. was, who was he playing over in that running back room? Remember that we had a continuous run of backs from: Edge, Jackson, Portis, McGahee and Gore. We were so stacked that after his injury Najeh had to love to fullback to get on the field.My understanding has been that the father wasn’t a fan of ours because of that. His father was a heckuva player and I think his uncle as well - South Miami or South Dade IIRC - but I think that was back in the Najeh Davenport /Portis/McGahee era so that’s who we were signing at the time fwiw. Anyhow, it would be something if Sed Sr ends up sending him here or supporting that choice while Choad Wilson and Earl Sr are alums and don’t do the same.
If Sed Irvin came around a few years later when we had a run of Baby James and Greg Cooper and a bunch of other guys no one remembers, Sed would have been the man in that room.
