    Can you please forward that to CSE and remind him about what’s sitting there forgotten on his depth chart?

    I am not sure of the correlation of highschool film to Les Miles, but I am sure it makes sense in your head!

    Not overly impressed; nothing really electric except for Provens’ speed. Brosette looks strong, CEH looks pretty good. Curry looks ok. Ducre doesn’t look like much of a RB, maybe a generic bruiser if needed.

    Proven's has 4.73. 40 speed., not exactly electric. Curry's not fast either. Ducre is a FB/Tight End.

    Provens was the fastest on the field and of all the players highlighted here, but 4.7 I guess isn’t super fast. As a FB/TE Ducre doesn’t look too bad.

    I did'nt realize we had so many RB's on this site. :) Williams runs a 4.6

    If a big back can find the holes, and get up to his top end speed quickly they can do damage.

    I also believe that there times may get better after some college coaching and conditioning. Brosette has the speed, can he hold on to the rock. "Curry weighed in at 5-10, 209 at LSU's camp while clocking a 4.68 40-yard dash while at about 90 percent after an ankle injury" Ducre ran a 4.42 40 when he came to LSU's camp pretty damn good for a FB/TE sounds to me that he could play RB if he wanted too.

    Why are we even signing RB's who can't even break 4.6? I love the way Williams played but a number of times he was caught from behind where Guice and Fournette would have scored untouched.

    Pretty sure Jacob Hester wasn’t running anything faster than a 4.6
