A runningback running over a highly touted, five star D-lineman? Yes please.

Army Bowl: Practice Reports

The only Notre Dame offensive skill commit on the East squad still continued to impress. Greg Bryant looked “undersized” next to Alabama commit - and Trent Richardson imposter - Derrick Henry all practice, however he more than held his own during pass protection drills and blitz pickup period. This is a good sign for the Irish if they’d like to use him next year and that is usually the biggest challenge and adjustment for freshman running backs cracking the lineup in their rookie seasons.

Bryant showed off his quick feet and sound footwork in the backfield prior to getting the ball (i.e. on counters, stretch, powers, misdirections and swing screens) and displayed his uncanny quick burst through even the smallest of holes. He did a great job hitting seams with one cut and exploding through the line of scrimmage.

Hard to believe Bryant looked undersized compared to any RB. :)

He looks great out there. He isn't quite the beastly presence like Green or Henry. But, he shows good power, can pick his way in between the tackles, shows elusiveness in the open field, great on screen passes, and great blocking.

Frankly, he may not be the pure runner in the class, but he seems to be the best 3 down and versatile back.

We are fortunate to have him Irish. Very happy about it, and it will benefit him as much as the team.

Love that he knows the quickest way to the field is to hone his blocking skills. Can't wait to see him in the blue and gold.

@Jake_Brown: Nope. RT @adamgorney: Just saw #Washington talking to #NotreDame commit Greg Bryant. Anything to this @Jake_Brown ?

Apparently UW has a damn bus parked outside the hotel and I guess they are talking to anyone that will stop and listen.

Lol, that's actually not a bad idea. All we would need though is Diaco in a lawn chair.

Greg is quickly becoming my favorite recruit in this class. Had we lost a few games this year, he might be in the SEC.

The crappy side of recruiting no one talks about. I wouldn't worry about them right now. Even if we come up short in the NCG we're still one of the most attractive options.
