I know we are recruiting him as a safety, but after watching his highlight film, kid's got some skill as a RB, too.

Hope he gets a little look-see from Bajakian....specially if we can't land Derrell Scott.

we need help on defense and already have 2 good running backs committed. I wouldn't even think about moving him to offense

Since he will likely be McNeil's or Randolph's backup, next year, it's not out of the question to see him get some looks as a No.3 at RB.

Paulk could play some next year, if he is ahead of schedule, but it might be another Maggit type situation, where he is not 100% at any point, and they redshirt him. So, if we don't land another RB, I could see them looking at Kelly to get some reps there. I like how fast he hits the hole and how fluid he is in his cuts.

I'm gonna go ahead and whole-heartedly disagree with this

What 2 RBs? Paulk and who else? Oh, you must mean that Hurd kid. Haven't you heard? He's way too tall to play RB so he's bound to be moved to TE or DE or OL.

Oh, I know, since Hurd is too talk to play RB at 6'3", why don't we just swap him and TKJr, he's only 6'1"....yeah that's it, Hurd to Safety and TKJr to RB. That's the ticket.

You put him where he'll make the biggest impact. If it's at RB, that's where he should play. See Gus Malzahn as an example.

Looks impressive everywhere he plays. Quick, shifty, great hands, good power, vision. It's almost unreal. He really lays the wood when he plays safety. If you've never seen this kid in person let me tell you he's built like he's already in college. Makes everyone around him look like they've never lifted before.

Well he wouldn't have any trouble learning our running play... I mean the whole zone read power option dive spread football play ... U know that one dive play they run... Lol

Oh yeah can't wait to see the second year of that play.. Maybe he lines up on diff side of qb just to fool the def...lol

He looks like a talented player on both sides of the ball and he really does look explosive at RB. He's probably the type of player that will shine at whatever position he ends up playing. Our team needs lots more top players like this!
