Keith Marshall -vs- Barry Sanders Jr

[D-BOE34]

Which running back would you guys rather we land? Clearly for discussion purposes only because they are both great gets for whoever lands them. I like Marshall speed! WOW... Barry also has great speed and is very shifty.

Both?

 

[Ironman8]

Either?

 

[bigedefense]

Maybe Diaco says "we'll take 'em both with a side of whoever the he11 else we want!"

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

If we landed either one, my head would implode.

In a good way.

 

[Riddickulous]

Whichever one will be easily intimidated by Bob Diaco.

 

[Irish Fam]

i'll take both... and cyler miles... and green-beckham... and a ton of other studs

Diaco doesn't convince recruits to commit. After talking to them, he tells them what they are going to do.
Example:
If we don't get Savon, its because Diaco told him to commit elsewhere.

I agree with either. Is Ronald Darby a viable RB candidate? I want him too.

Getting Green-Beckham would be

Gigantic. The running back situation will depend on Huggins this year. If we get him, it will be tough to get a top 5 guy next year. We really need to have a RB have a huge season next year. If Wood or (whomever) has a 1500 yd. season, look out. The recruits will pour in. A top 5 football team with a 99% graduation rate would be hard to beat.

I believe Darby wants to play CB

I think the staff is looking at him as a RB

he has shown a lot of interest in ND. If ND is not his top school it is very close

 

[jason_h537]

Marshall is considered one of the best in the country next year. Sanders is not quite at that level. Sanders will likely stay in big 12 country

ND won't be his top school for long if we don't let him play DB. I see it as a similar situation to that with Cameron Clear and James Wilder - a kid who wants to play a certain position and will only go to a school what lets him play at that position.

 

[Who'saWildManNow]

When Bob Diaco jumps into the water he doesn't get wet.. The water gets Diacoed..

 

[Irish Man3]

Ronald Darby has told ISD that we wants to play DB so I'm sure he has told coaches. I say you let this kid play just about where ever he wants. He is a stud.

I gotta say Marshall has some CRAZY acceleration!

This.
The 2 backs are pretty even but it doesn't seem Sanders Jr has that same acceleration

 

[RyCo1983]

Yeah, I dont' see that burst from Sanders...
The top end is super fast for both..but Marshall gets there in a second...
