Watch Travis Henry's run at the 25:30 mark. I was in the student section that day, and this was right in front of me. At the time, it was probably the best stuff arm I had seen.

Yeah...I always said Henry had a wicked stiff arm. I saw him do that over and over while at UT. Wish he could get with Hurd and work on that technique, cause I saw Hurd miss quite a few stiff-arms this season, and never really use it effectively. Had one good one in the bowl game, but once he gets that move down, he's going to break a LOT more big runs. In fact, I think this is one of the things that separates Gurley from other RB's.Watch Travis Henry's run at the 25:30 mark. I was in the student section that day, and this was right in front of me.

Even when defenses know UGA was going to lean on him, he still manages to have a BIG day. He does that not so much with shiftiness, but he's just hard to bring down. One of his best moves is a good stiff arm, so even if the DB/LB lines up for a good solid shot on him, he makes you miss.
As tall as Hurd is, you would think he'd have a wicked stiff-arm, using that length to keep defenders off of him, but that's one part of his game that needs work, still.
I didn't mock anyone. I asked who all of these "insiders" are that said Lewis was a backup plan at the bottom of our recruiting board; which is ridiculous; and I got the name of one poster that gets his info from recruiting sites just like everybody else on this board. Then you decided to weigh in because you are still butthurt because I called you out for bumping threads of players that have no interest in UT because you think it's funny to annoy people who come here for legit info. :nono:
