He was running hard earlier in the year. That hit in the UGA game had to have knocked some wires loose or something. He was unhappy and made sure everyone knew it. It affected the teams attitude. His on the field play may not have benefitted us, but his attitude certainly did. When one of your star players is pitching a fit on the sideline, it changes the way the rest of the players feel too.

Debatable. I would say he hadn't ran hard since Northwestern. He was catching passes out of the backfield well but his good looking runs last year were very few and far between.

He ran hard in the VT game and the UF game. The OL issues early in the season were part of the problem but those seemed to get better as the year went along. It was after he took the hit in the UGA game when things started shifting. Then he didn't play vs TAMU. He had 28 yds vs Bama. 110 vs App State, 99 vs VT, and 95 vs UF..... then the UGA game. After that he was unhappy and caused more harm than good.

what was his ypc in those games?
Click to expand...

1 catch for 6 yds vs App State
1 catch for 1 yd vs VT
2 catches for 25 yds and 1 TD vs UF
3 catches for 50 yds and 1 TD vs UGA
3 catches for -1 yds vs Bama

UGA was his best receiving game. He should have had 2 TDs receiving in that game but we are all aware of what happened.

That's a first down (per 3 touches) in all but 2 games

He was running hard, despite subpar OL play in the beginning of the year. He wasn't setting the world on fire but he looked engaged and a solid teammate until the UGA hit. After that game, Hurd was not the same Hurd.

I agree with this. One of those people he shouldn't have been listening to have him real bad advice.

I agree but to a lesser extent. I just didn't see the same burst and vision as the year prior. After UGA and that hit it was over.

Just my opinion, but the hit itself had very little top do with Hurd's attitude. His attitude had everything to do with the reaction from Butch Jones when he came to the sidelines after the hit(a reaction he definitely deserved).

It was from that point on that he checked out on his team. We won that game and could have just as easily won the next week in College Station and a few weeks later against South Carolina, with a healthy focused Hurd taking some of the pressure off Dobbs. Instead we had an injured Kamara, Hurd not caring what happened and an OL reeling from injuries suffered at College Station and against Bama.

The thing that makes me think the hit had something to do with it is that he wanted no part of being a RB anymore. Why else transfer and switch to TE or WR?

Disagree a little. He got tackled in the backfield against Florida and acted like a little punk about it. And to your running hard point, anytime he got touched on the legs, he was done, though he did do a good job of falling forward usually. IMO, he took a big step back this year overall.

Once I saw this I knew this kid was about to blow up. When we start doing stuff like this that means he is on top of our board. You knew when the recruiting office is putting out edits for a 3* kid he isn't gonna be a 3* much longer.

Maybe I'm taking the pending Litaker and Emerson commitments for granted, but I'd have to say that this kid (Horn) and Jordan Miner, the cb from Florida, are the two commitments I'm most interested in landing at this point.

You didn't watch the game? The one at the goal line that almost decapitated him, he fumbled, cost us a TD, and almost cost us the game?

The pass? Where he got hit from behind. I was at the game in the end zone where he dropped it. That is down side I do miss some things versus watching on tv
