If Yearby didn't wear #2 nobody would compare him to Mcgahee, cut that **** out. Lets jus be happy he's put on weight and stop reaching on comparisons
 
- The big difference with Brad Kaaya is physical. He is leaner, quicker and more athletic in the pocket. He was on his game today, and landed beautiful downfield throws to Braxton Berrios and Herb Waters in between multiple defenders.

- All of the running backs had good days, but the star of the show was Trayone Gray. He had a gliding, 80-yard touchdown run that opened eyeballs. He also showed off his superior athleticism by reversing field on a long run. He has been the most spectacular back throughout camp.

- Waters, Berrios and Rashawn Scott all made big plays. Scott showed some of his run after the catch ability, as well.

- David Njoku has proven to be a redzone weapon flexed out wide, a la Jimmy Graham. He made a very athletic TD catch on a fade from Kaaya.

- With a couple exceptions, the offensive line did a decent job. Sonny Odogwu, Kc McDermott, Tyree St. Louis and Danny Isidora all saw reps at RT, with Darling, McDermott and St. Louis getting reps at LT.

- Kendrick Norton caught caught my eye early in camp and he continues to impress every practice. He gets off blocks much better than I expected, and he even showed athleticism in pursuit. He may not have gotten three sacks, but he was disrupting everything. Bottom-heavy, explosive, flexible, aware-- he's the best defensive tackle prospect UM has had in years.

- Rayshawn Jenkins is healthy and looks poised to start opposite Deon Bush. He jumped in front of a Vincent Testaverde pass and took it to the house.

- Evan Shireffs caught my eye with a TD drive. He is more athletic than people think at 6'6, and you can see his intelligence on the field. It will be interesting to watch his development.





Helluva report D-Money. Keep up the good work.
 
Willis ****ing McGahee?! Are you ****ing with me?

I'll stand by my comment that these people are ******* stupid. Thanks for proving my point, broke.

Are they brothers?

Dam hard to believe ,gray has been the best,... But I agree with most of your observations

Not the best. The most spectacular.

None of the backs have truly separated themselves, IMO. But Gray has made the most impressive plays.

Safe to say gray is the fastest and most explosive back. Does yearby still look quick weighing 200 pounds. He has put on a lot of muscle it seemView attachment 31234

Dude looks like Willis f'in McGahee...let's hope he plays like him

He really does though

No he doesn't
 
How did yearby, Walton and coley look?

On defense Muhammad, Carter, Chad, Kirby?
Kirby forced a fumble on Gus but had a couple bad fits.

That's my biggest concern about this defense this year. If we're not playing downhill more as a defense I don't trust Kirby to be perfect. He won't be Gaines, but he'll fall far short of Perryman. Add to that, our safeties hardly run the alley well and our corners seem immune to tackling at times.

Deon does but Dallas and Jamal have been brutal

I'm expecting a monster year out of Bush. I remember watching him live during his freshman year and saying this dude is the next Cane superstar on D. Unfortunately injuries and a complete lack of pass rush hasn't helped. All Acc minimum for him.

Btw, I know Jenkins has been hurt but he was just as bad in run support. Hopefully all of the early reports are true and he's ready to ball out.
 
Thank you. Now I know why he reminded me of Nate Brooks.
 
Thanks for the report D$. Could have stopped reading at the first page though. For some reason this turned into a conversation of what current players look like former players and grown men trying to humiliate other grown men because of their opinion. You can't make this stuff up. Guys, I'm sure they meant because they both wear #2 , are stocky and play RB, not that they are actually twins, but carry on. Whatever gets you through the day.

OSU also shredded Davenport's knee. It would've been interesting to see what he could've done otherwise....

Lol. He really does look like a miniature version of that other [URL=https://www.canesinsight.com/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=2]#2 [/URL] , Miami Central product. Much different games, much different skillsets, much different measurables, but probably similar toughness and mental makeup. I hope he ends up being at least half as good as that other #2 .

Half as good as a healthy McGahee is **** good. The original #2 was a once every 10 years talent. If that OSU ****er didn't shred his knee then easy HOF for #2 .

guysm, we got a jimmy graham type talent on the team!!!
 
I said that Yearby looked like a young McGahee in the spring time and I was laughed at. Fact is..he looks like a YOUNG McGahee. Willis was not 6'1 230 ON ANY DAY while at UM. He came in at 200lbs as a freshmen out of Central. He left here at about 220lbs. Again, we are talking strictly body type. Not speed. So yes I agree, Yearby has the body type of a YOUNG willis mcgahee. Lets hope he plays half as good as willis did.

you are still being laughed at. Last time Willis weighted 200 was probably sophmore year of HS. According to 2 sites I checked, he was listed at 215 as a HS senior when he signed his LOI.

HurricaneWarriors.com - Recruiting Classes 2000

Hurricanes Add D.J. Williams To Football Recruiting Class - University of Miami Hurricanes Official Athletic Site

He wsa listed at 224 as a sophmore.

Player Bio: Willis McGahee - University of Miami Hurricanes Official Athletic Site

And yes, he was weighing at 230 at and around the time he was drafted:

ERROR: The requested URL could not be retrieved

Their frames are NOTHING alike. Gus is closer to Willis than Yearby is. Yearby won't be heavier than 210-212 by the time he leaves college, imo.

You are showing your age buddy. First off, when it comes to HS recruiting, you are out of your league here. YOU have to resort to looking **** up online. (you must be under the age of 21) I SAW WILLIS PLAY PERSONALLY at MiaCen and I am telling you he wasn't a pound over 200 his SR year. Now Najeh Davenport was tipping the scales at 225 in HS. He was always big as ****.

But go ahead internet historian, look up your links and paste them here. LOL.
 
@ AUCane...And furthermore, he got hurt part of his SR year so he lost all that weight. (ACL tear I believe) 215???? LOL. Yeah you believe that if you want playa...because you know..Player bios never lie when it comes to weights and heights. Lol. Smh. Amateur hour around here I see..
