If averaging 65 yards a game is what you want average 4.2 yards a carrying then more power too you....probably thought walton produced to while he was at the U
 
The difference is those backs at Ohio State, Alabama and Clemson compete for national championships while they're in college.

You guys continue to ignore the fact that kids don't want to be a part of a losing program. Truth is, you can go to the league at any program if you're good enough. But if you're going to spend 3 to 4 years of your life at a school, you want to make sure that you're having a good time. And winning is having a good time.

Ohio State falling from that list fast...They're not in that Clem/Bama convo any more. 4 losses in last 25 games by 14+

They're still top 10 in the country and their head coach has 3 national title rings. As far as kids are concerned, they're always in the running.

Ya understand your point...And would also add every UM loss or losing streak is magnified. Because it shows we're "not back"...Kids are like man all this the U is back, man please.

Yes bruh. In the NFL 4.2 yards a carry is considered starting level and good. At that rate your talking about like 14 handoffs a game. He’s not a work horse back. Those don’t exist anymore. 10 years ago everyone rushed for 1000+ in the league cause they got the carries. The league is diff now
 
It's pretty straightforward. Compare the Miami and Ohio State games from this past Saturday. Dobbins was bulldozing dudes in a variety of run schemes as OSU burned clock to seal the victory while Homer and Dallas run into brick walls all year on the same 2-3 run plays.

Crowley absolutely made the right decision for his career given his running style. It hurts but I can't hate him for it.

People don’t realize that it’s not just about the school, it’s the team as well. If he needs a strong oline to assist him in his success and our oline is struggling then that will be the deciding factor. He can love UM until he swears green and bleeds orange, he still needs a solid oline and we don’t have that yet. I will say that we have churned out more NFL backs than Urban but I don’t think Irban has recruited man players that have projected well to the NFL. He did well with Rainey and Demps but those were 2 speed scat backs. Right now his backs at OSU are playing great.

Crowley is a physical gap-scheme runner with screen game ability. Does that sound like a guy who fits Richt's offense well? OSU is perfect for him.

And Proferm or. Not he gets them to the league as higher draft choices. Scouts spend more time with those programs and trust those coaches to develop.

These passive aggressive threads are comical. No one is disputing the fact Miami still puts kids into the league. We're 2nd behind Bama after 15 years of sucking for active NFL players right now if I am not mistaken. What this thread is a bigger indictment of is the incompetence we have had and continue to have at the helm of our program.

MOAR negative posts. Up to 2,294. Keep up the good work.
 
Funny the people on here were raggin on Crowley when he first committed. Everyone was so fixated on Sanders and whoever else. Fact is there was no chance Miami was going to get Sanders and Cain. Mcintosh was the second rb but that shipped sailed a while ago.

Yes I am ****ed Crowley left but I can’t hate on him going to a team that is winning and an offense that is functional. If Miami is able to keep all 5 RBs they have now and add Richards I’ll be happy.
