For anyone that watched him his sophomore year and before, is he back to form yet from that ACL? I saw he had 65yds on 17 carries last night. Really haven't seen the stat lines from him you'd expect from a 5 star RB. Wondering if he's missing some explosion he had before, or are d's just playing him well.

SMH. Did you guys ever consider the fact that there's 10 other guys on the offense who have something to do with the success of a Running Back?

You're probably not gonna see great stats from Sony this year BECAUSE HERITAGE CAN'T THROW THE BALL. People are gonna load the box against Heritage and they're gonna get multiple hats to the football. He can't break 5 tackles every carry and be off to the races. This isn't a video game.

Yes, hence the question and why I asked if defenses were simply playing him well...more reading comprehension, less sanctimony. Thanks.

I'll ask for you to take your own advice and exhibit more comprehension

To do that...all you have to do is look at who responded to your post.
 
Sony Michel is a very good running back.... he's just not this once in a generation phenom everyone thought he would be when he was in 8th grade.

If Sony Micheland DALVIN Cook wanted to commit they BOTH could. That was the original plan. For UM to take both Sony, and Cook. Has ben said a few times on this site by a couple of posters as well.

Sorry, wasn't really directing that comment towards you, rather the person who said he's overrated. (and the future posters who I know will say the same cause they're butthurt)

Drrrrr.
 
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure Heritage is playing better competition these days as well. That was always my concern with Michel for years. Really didn't seem like Heritage played anybody.
 
Sony will be a better player in college with a better team around him. Hes a star talent for a reason and dont look for excuses to feel better about losing him cuz boy gun be a boss period.

After watching a couple of his games this year, they are loading the box on him but the only thing that I haven't seen that he had in the past was that break away that he always had. He hasn't been able to show it plus there are a couple of other guys on his team making big plays.
