Hurd is a straight beast. He will be fine as a RB at UT. He will be fine. Watching him run, he knows when to lower the shoulder and with his speed, not a problem.

Screw that crap about being too tall to play RB in college. I think it would look pretty damn awesome to see him in the backfield with another 10-15 lbs of muscle and no loss of speed. If I'm an O-lineman seeing how he hits the hole and doesn't dance around, I'm thinking, "OH YEAH!"
One of the best games ever! Kids these days have no idea lol.
Lawrence Taylor on defense was awesome too and one of the few that could hang with Okoye.
Wasn't Bo Jackson on that game too?
