Beamer quote on Duke Johnson

Advertisement
I'll say it again.

I think he's the best to come through here.

All we need is a big game against FSU and it'll cement his legend as a player.
 
I'm just happy that he got to have his night in front of a National Television audience.

It's awesome that the country got to see what kind of talent this kid has.

Duke is the undisputed leader of this team and the game has really slowed down for him. Edge, Portis, McGahee, Gore etc were great and Duke is right with them and it's great to watch. He had 90 yards in the first half against FSU last year before getting hurt so I'm excited to see what he does this year to a unit that doesn't appear to be as stout as they were last year. Duke had his best most complete game tonight IMO

He got hurt at the end of the third quarter against FSU
 
In my opinion he's the best RB I've ever seen play at UM, only Edge comes close. Willis and Gore ran behind some of the best O lines we've ever had here, while Duke has ran behind some shaky lines his whole career. Watch the replay of this VT game tonight, most of Dukes huge runs came after making one or two defenders miss at the LOS. Duke is the complete package, great feet work, great hands, A1 vision and the best stiff arm I've ever seen from someone his size!

Remember what Duke did to VT his freshman year? Over 160 rushing and 2 returns for over 70 yards. Bud knew he lucked out when Duke broke his ankle the week before we played them last year. If the canes get the ball to Duke over 25 times a game we have a chance to beat anyone, and I'll stick to that forever

I stand corrected, my bad! Duke ran strong in that game up to that point and I'm expecting him to improve on that performance
