2023 #1 247 RB Richard Young

[Canes Legacy]

I really can’t imagine we pull both though

I'm fairly confident we'll land 1 of those 2. I'm not going to underestimate Mario, they can try the "save yourself for the league" pitch by being 1a and 1b and see what happens. Neither of these 2 will be scared of competition.

You do not know **** ******!

I am what I love

 

[lauderdaleballer]

I’ve heard he’s also a very good blocker already

Then he’s dangerous. Smh you can play that kid all over the field and never take him out.

Young would be our best back we signed since the Butch era easily.

 

[AtlAtty]

Young would be our best back we signed since the Butch era easily.

Strong statement because that includes Duke and Lamar.
You are putting him in the McGahee, Edge, Portis and Gore category.

 

[rayray]

don't think there's much of an argument for Lamar being a better prospect than Young.

Duke was a 5 star and top 20 overall player in his class which is right where Young is at so unless you think much lower of Duke (which I don't) it would be a stretch to say that Young is easily a better back than him (and that's also ignoring the actual production Duke put on the field, which is the most yards in school history)

Was going through previous years..crazy Lingard was a Top 25 player in the country

This kid looks like the real deal and could have the same impact duke did for us

I am putting him in that category. Kind of reminds me of Josh Jacobs or that GT running back that just transfered to bama.

[Goulds Cane]

5 of the top 7 are from Florida & FSU doesn't have a shot with any of them

Aptly

 

[Dwinstitles]

Bring me Young

 

[nycane]

whos behind Young? Im not a big Fletcher guy cause of speed if hes in the class with Young I wont be mad cause we get Young, but whos suppose to be the second best back?

You aren’t a fan because he goes to heritage lol

Well I have seperated that hate from the film, he doesnt look fast at all. If im mistaken and he is fast and hes flying out there hes a take

He isn’t fast but he brings a unique skill set that a physical team needs and wants. We need 2 RBs in this class. Lock up Fletcher than go after Young and Baxter.

Anybody with Young I'm good with they could bring DBC in and I wouldn't care

Fletcher is an excellent blocker, will pick up the blitz, can slide out of the backfield and catch the ball afterwards as well. Could play fullback as well giving us even more options. That’s not me saying go all in on Fletcher but he gives another dimension to the offense that we haven’t had since Quad Hill or Najeh. Not as fast as Najeh but really physical.

I would just say in those big time games, physical hard hitting, you need a tough talented in between tackles runner that gets those tough 4,,5,6,7 yard gains consistently.

When Bama and UGA play, they don't have RBs ripping off large chunks consistently, you see them pounding it keep those chains moving mixing in passing.

Put fletcher in a UGA and Bama uniform he would fit right in.

Put him at UGA or Bama and we are talking about how we wish the kid stayed home
