No, branch is another level so is riley
No he’s not groupie
He has faster track speed but is nowhere near the football player Branch is.Can CJ be used similar to the way USC used Zachariah Branch. Hard to believe but CJ actually has more speed. I’ve never seen him play but watching Branch made me wonder if he has similar traits.
Exactly! LolNo he’s not groupie
Who isn’t?He has faster track speed but is nowhere near the football player Branch is.
CJ is faster straight line but nowhere near shifty like that. Now ray ray on the other hand and Robbie within another year or two are an entirely different story.Can CJ be used similar to the way USC used Zachariah Branch.

Ehh, I been on the Chris Johnson bus for a minute but Branch got VERIFIED 10.33 as a SOPH in high school.. It would be CLOSE if anything..CJ is faster straight line but nowhere near shifty like that.

To answer question, Can he, well Chris played wr in optimist but he is RB now, would have to switch positions to be used in similar ways unless Dawson got REALLY creative, you look at ways Lincoln used Branch and we have a similar play in playbook, We ran it in spring game but instead of a WR we ran it to Skinner in flats. Lincoln essentially had branch in like an H-back position and got him in space.. If you notice Lincoln made sure Branch got to touch the ball FIRST PLAY.. Who knows when Chris will play.. Got to get SPEEEEEEEED on the field ASAP and get it in space, PR, KR, etc.Can CJ be used similar to the way USC used Zachariah Branch. Hard to believe but CJ actually has more speed. I’ve never seen him play but watching Branch made me wonder if he has similar traits.
Hopefully thats the planWhat about using CJ how we should have and tried to use Rooster?
Line him up in the backfield, in the slot, even out wide. A multi-purpose knife.

Branch was one of 2 favorite recruit last season for a reason, was talking him up over a year but he was 5 star so no biggie.. Knew dude would be instant impact player.. To have 232 all purpose yards in first college game, MAN.. Exciting for cfb overall.. Ray Ray will probably be closest to something like that (as far as playing style and opportunity)
