Cody Brown commits to Miami

[grover]

I love the fact we'll take the talent and adapt. Knighton, Chaney, Franklin and now Brown are all very different backs. But they're all incredibly impressive. Very happy he's a Cane.

only a few years ago jimmy murphy was our 4th string back and getting burn..... this dude will be 4th/5th string this fall..lets ****** go

 

[Always Correct]

Not sure I understand this one. I’m not taking away from the kids talent, but would rather use an IC on a LB, CB or, OL. Safety and RB were the 2 positions I felt about on the team.

thad was a pg ... i doubt ol boy is a better athlete than thad ... that being said the competition is gonna be real ... manny gotta have the nuts to play the best player despite what is said on twitter

Was there a problem playing the best RB previously?

Underrated post here.

chaney was starting to overwhelm cam and cam made a comment on twitter that he was being disrespected which in return imo got him more touches ... if we being honest, cam work ethic is legit, but talent wise i'm not sure how he plays over chaney

Looked like Lingard to me.

Looks like we’ll have some fun to watch

Do you think by accident you may have watched a Lorenzo Lingard highlight tape? Because their tapes couldn't be less identical.

He’s a good back. Really good size and really good feet. His speed is good not great but I’ll take the combination of size and feet. He’s not the type of guy defensive players want to spend all day tackling. We’ve signed 4 really good backs in the last 2 classes.

 

[Fawk_U Haters]

He doesn't look overly fast, but i think he plays faster on a field that anything timed on a stop clock. not going to home run threat all the time, but he is fast enough i would guess. We can shop for a home run back now in the 22 class. We have the two power guys back to back in this kid and Thad.

All 3 were banged up at times all year. I think we’ve got a great stable - which will likely lead to second guessing here. I think Chaney is probably better than Cam, but I’m also not an expert on RB pass blocking etc

He definitely looks quicker in his senior film.

I wonder if the weak '22 RB class had any impact on taking Brown. Off the top of my head I don't really know any RB's we're going after this year. Maybe Gibbs? He's coming off an ACL tear right? I think RB has to be the least talked about position on this board in terms of the 2022 cycle. 2023 has Mark Fletcher, Richard Young, Sedrick Irvin jr. etc.

This is what a UM backfield should look like from a depth and talent perspective.


Is Knighton going to be good to go for Spring here soon?

Damari Alston seems to be the biggest target . Hears from coaches every day. He did tweet at Cody brown to congratulate him as well

Sure, I’ll be that guy. How does this shake up the rest of the room? Because all these kids aren’t staying here for their entire careers. This is 4 backs the last 2 classes. No chance all 4 spend 3-4 years here. So, who’s gonna be the odd man (men?) out?
