This guy does look like an Alabama type running back. I think a couple days ago he was CB to Auburn, so I was surprised when he committed. This team has a nice stable of backs coming on board.

Nah, there will be some upgrades at WR. Pope is giving us a look, and Hall is in play

I think we have two wrapped up on the OL, not sure about the 3rd. Also, think we have two DT's already wrapped up, or at least very heavy leans.
Who's the other DT ? I know nesta is trending our way pretty good. Who's the other one?

my guess would either Miller or Trout. Don't know who they have wrapped up, but at this point, I think they have 2 locked in. I really expect them to have these kids commit at opportune times.

The kid is REALLY good. Ironically, he reminds me of another back with the same first name...Damien Harris, the Bama running back. He and Iverson Clement are gonna be a tremendous tandem in the backfield. We're just destroying it on the recruiting trail this year. Times are a changing, boys. Mac might finally be on to something. :grin:

This dudes gonna see the field immediately
He'll have a shot. Scarlett and Thompson will be gone after this year, which leave Perine. Can't help but think that Lemons grabs the spot behind Perine for next year. So really he just needs to beat out Davis or wait for someone to get banged up.

Yeah the opportunity is definitely gonna be there but this kid looks like a legitimate homerun hitter.

Same size as Mike Gillislee. Compact efficient running style with very little wasted motion. Runs to the hole and is schooled in looking for and taking the cutback lane. First step not as explosive as Perine but fast none the less. If he sticks neither Lemons nor Iverson will play ahead of him. This kid will be a load.

This is a really good get no doubt. When I see this guy, he just embodies everything about a runningback to me. He's a tough runner, strong, but also speedy. Looks like a great All purpose back. With that said, I'm really high on Lemons potential. Lemons to me has freakish ability and with development could be really really special..Leveon bell kind of reminds me of what Lemons can be.

The way he ran over that guy at the goal line reminded me of E. Graham or E. Rhett. Love the punishing running style he has.

looks like a nice one cut back with good vision. looks like good, not great power with above average balance. does he remind you of ingram at all?

If he's got Ingram's hunger/work ethic he will.

He appears to have great vision & instincts. He usually hits the hole hard & fast but sometimes waits on his blocks to happen and other times cuts away from a defender who has hit the gap first.

There are a few plays where I'd want to check out the safety that closes in on him quickly.

I thought the same too. Maybe a little more like Rawleigh Williams of Arky too. He has the same look the way he eats up yards and making it look almost effortless,

On another note though we have enough skill players if these guys all stick. In other words it's time to put the heat on some linemen. We have one and despite roster numbers being decent this season(not accounting for quality) we've got to keep bringing in 8-10 LOS players(not DE's) each and every year if were going to match the Bama's, FSU's and Clemson's of the CFB world by 2018 and beyond.
