September 29, 20214 yr seems like a big play threat every time he touches the ballSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

But ONLY him. Looked like he was running on a conveyor belt moving forward while everyone else was running on solid ground.
September 29, 20214 yr This gruntles my soul. Too many times I've seen a Texas player break into the clear. He'd give it everything he had before being tracked down by a DB from across the field. I'd be excited by the 25 yard gain, but wonder why he got caught. Texas now has several players across multiple positions that simply outrun the defense. Somebody might be able to catch him eventually, but not over the 100 yards that make up the playing surface.

It’s pretty incredible to think that our last coach didn’t value speed on offense. He legitimately didn’t understand it was important. Just unbelievable.
September 29, 20214 yr Insert gif here of Keontay Ingram breaking into the open field with no one within 10 yards of him.... and tackled 10 yards later.

Much as I loved the kid, that was the Tre Watson experience in a nutshell.
September 29, 20214 yr I don't want to start calling names because frankly Jamaal Charles and maybe Jordan Shipley are the last two players I recall with speed to house it on a breakaway. Having those players on the field makes a DC hesitant to call zeros. With no layers to a defense, one block or a broken tackle means hearing Texas Fight. They make everybody's job easier. Edited September 29, 20214 yr by GoldAppleCorps I'm slighting Marquise Goodwin. He had the speed, but not the scheme.

Duvernay had speed. As did Daje Johnson. But overall, yeah, we have not valued it enough.

I wouldn't even call it top end speed, just speed. I watched a little of him at USC and he looks to have shed some weight.

Ingram is definitely speed deficient. He's good enough to wiggle his way to some extra yards, but he made Roschon look fast by comparison. Ingram < Roschon/Bijan << Keilan when it comes to breakaway speed
September 29, 20214 yr Can't wait to see this dude get more touches at RB and also more punt blocks on special teams. 🤘
