[QUOTE="Techster, post: 237844, member: 360"] A lot of that was from the fans. I think CPJ said he could help us at BB, and somehow our fans went off the rails on the hype train. I never understood the basis for it. The guy had like under 20 carries all of his career at Stanford, played fullback...and somehow he was supposed to step in run for 1,000 yards? I think he was solid, but we sure did get ahead of ourselves there. Mills is going to be a stud. His power running style and one cut ability is tailored for being a BB. He's got enough juice to get long runs, even if doesn't quite have MM's homerun ability in the open field. He's a bigger body than MM so his ability to run through arm tackles and make someone miss on the first level is going to lead to bigger runs. I'm excited to have a homerun threat at BB. If you pay attention to CPJ, he does tell you like it is. It's just fans tend to read what they want from it. I remember when he talked about Michael Summer pushing to play WR as a Freshmen. Most of us thought it was because of his reported 4.3 speed, he was going to be a deep threat in our offense. Well, after playing for three years, we know Michael was a solid WR that was a great blocker...not so much a big threat receiving though. In conclusion...let's wait to see what we have. If CPJ says a player will play...they'll play and help in various ways CPJ needs him to. It doesn't necessarily mean he's going to be a star. [/QUOTE]
