2017 Opponents' Top Running Backs
2017 Opponents' Top Running Backs Over the past 16 games, Clemson has faced some of the best running backs in the country. FSU’s all-time leading great Dalvin Cook was a nightmare to try to defend. Derrick Henry won the Heisman, and Bo Scarborough was almost as impressive. Pittsburgh’s J

Our Dline and backers were great against the run last year. This year could be (I think will be) our best EVER. Time will tell. If a great RB can't even get started, he is done for. TFL will mount this year as they've done in year's past.

If they can't breath, they can't perform very well. I think our defense will smother opponents this year, much like our defense did against Major Harris of WVU when we played them. "Mr. Excitement" was running for his life all night long in that game. Let's just say he was humbled. Check it out on You Tube "Ford's Last Stand". Epic!

impact on rushing. We were ok against the run last year ranking 24th and giving up 3.7 yds per carry. I think Tre, Kendall, Dorian, Shaq, Chad...etc are going to be dominant this year. Thrown in with our front 4....awesome.

I follow recruiting and knew that along with the fact that Amir Rasul is a four star for FSU, but didn't include Patrick because like a lot of FSU fans, I think Patrick is overrated and has been a disappointment so far. Many FSU fans think Akers beats him out early in camp.

Wait....you're a FSU fan?
And the guy that has been behind one of the best backs in the nation in Dalvin Cook while posting a very respectable YPC behind a terrible o-line is a disappointment??
I'd love to hear that logic....

How long did it take you to google up a ~ 6 month

old article?
That guys "assessment"(not sure you can call it that) looked to be built off of one former NFL RB's opinion of Patrick....

You have never said a positive word about anything I have said and I get it, but understand in my job as a radio host I have built relationships with writers, radio people and a few who have inside access to several programs. I have a handful of contacts tha follow the FSU program. I talk to them on a fairly regular basis. There is nothing I can tell you to change your opinion of what I say, but no it is not just a google lookup. Sorry to disappoint.

vague opinions to a ~ 6 month old article to your insider contacts...
So which is it?
and you've yet to actually answer the question on why he's a disappointment other than offering up some hearsay opinions.
