http://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/te...y-vols-rb-jalen-hurd-franchise-player-making/ Awesome breakdown by SDS.
Hurd is electric. He is going to be a top 5 RB for Tennessee by the time his tenure is up, and that is no small feat.
He's going to be a star. He's just a sort of running back that hasn't been popular lately. He's a hammer.
Running well. Needs to be more involved in the passing game. Having a pass blocking RB is a good utility but having a releasing check-down that scorches Ds that blitz is a better utility, IMO. Get him out there 1v1 against DBs. See how long it takes for defenses to stop blitzing.
As an aside, I like seeing Lane jumping for joy on the wildcat run. His carries have been reduced quite a bit, yet he is ecstatic about how the play ended. Love seeing that passion from a team player.
NA, watch that Wild Vol again (shown from behind, the first of the two). See that LB who comes shooting over toward Hurd? He gets a shot but goes high and uses his arms, and who Hurd shrugs off? That was Lane's guy, and he completely whiffed on him.
This. At first I just thought the LB was over pursuing and lane just let him pass, but you're right. He whiffed.
