Am I the only one that thinks Cronkrite is and has been a bit under-rated coming into the season. Don't get me wrong, I am pleased we have both, but if I had to pick from the last 2 games I think Cronkrite has the edge from what I have seen. I know it's early, and I haven't seen any of the practices the media has, but at this moment he appears to be just as good if not better than Scarlett. In the words of the fearless leader Ox: Discuss.

I agree, I think Cronkrite (get the spelling right) has flown under the radar but I think he's outperformed Scarlett thus far. Glad they are both Gators!!

Scarlett looks like the better back standing still but Crunk has definitely been the best back so far.

Boston, I thought you were being funny, but dammit if you aren't right! I had never noticed the second 'r' in his name. Cronkrite. Cronk Right. Thanks for pointing that out. Wonder how many others besides me and Albert missed that.

Cronkrite has looked very impressive so far. Takes the contact to the defender, not the other way around.

Glad we have both, give Scarlett some time and maybe a few more reps and I think you'd be splitting hairs between the two.

I think Cronkrite has arguably been the best back on the field thus far, or is atleast challenging Taylor. Definitely better than Scarlett so far. We'll find out if he is the real deal over the next couple of weeks.
Cronkrite, with Taylor bumped down the depth chart, has a chance to make a name for himself this weekend, as UKs rush defense is not very good, giving up 227 yards per game.
No reason that we shouldn't have a back go over the century mark this weekend, unless we are just going pass crazy the whole game.

Interestingly, Cronkrite was thought to be the lightning to Scarlett's thunder. But that dude straight bowls people over. And he's basically a one cut runner. Cuts right field. No dancing.

But on a serious note with those two, both are very talented for sure, Cronk has had the better hand so far because Scar has put the ball on the ground a time or two and I think has caused him to slow down a bit trying not to fumble. At least that's what it looked like in the last game from row 12

Accurate. Looking forward to seeing if he can keep that up against SEC defenses. Scarlett has been pretty disappointing thus far.

I just like their names. Cronks name is bizarre. Like someone screwed up the spelling years ago. Love Scarlett. We are the only SOUTHERN team to have a back named Rhett and Scarlett. Put that in your pipe and smoke it (old guys know that saying).
