We are fine on speed, but not power. We have to get a larger power back. I love me some Kelly but he either churns and burns or goes down with a shoe string tackle. We do not have a RB that can thump it up the middle.

Lol...you haven't been watching the same back that I have. He doesn't go down with a shoe string tackle...that was Hurd.

🤔

Kelly has some of the best balance in the SEC. He doesn't go down on shoe string tackles.

Wait....is this blue font? Posts like this are the epitome of how funny it is that we fans watch the game and then formulate opinions about the team/coaching. There is literally not one "football person" that would describe JK as easy to bring down or not a tough runner. That is his #1 attribute, even more than his speed. He runs angry and physical and he runs through arm tackles.

If you had spent a year as a scholarship football player at a big-time school, enjoying all of the perks that go along with that, and then ended up at a crappy juco in BFE, you'd be wanting to get back too.

We don't need Emmons. We are just fine at RB and the RBs in the 2018 class are really good. Emmons has a problem so let him go his own way.

You can't be serious. Why would you want a HS Sr over an already established collegiate Rb? Plus he's more Elite than either Rb committed right now

I wouldn't be surprised if Kelly was leading Division 1 RBs in yards after contact.

One of the 5 stupidest things I've ever reason this site. I can't possibly fathom the fact that you've accumulated 2800 likes over the years.

You sir hv no clue @ all. We lack top end speed, and the guys weren't doing any speed training last I knew. We had to get our guys paired up with a speed guy prior to last season. Kelly has it all except top end speed to finish big plays. He's no where near tripping over blades of grass

Chandler has the top end speed we haven't had in a back since Coker. He has a higher ceiling than Kelly even.

I would agree. But, he's not there yet. I still think Chandler needs 10 touches a game. I thought Kelly was going to be good this year, but damn, not this good. I've never seen a 5'9, 205 pound RB break so many tackles. If Kelly continues to produce like he has so far this year, I expect him to enter the draft and be no later than a 2nd day(1-3 rounds) draft pick. I still want to add Emmons to this next recruiting class, if at all possible.

Serious question, are you watching Tennessee games?
