'19 MO RB Kyren Williams (Notre Dame Signee)

[koonja]

Where'd Kuenhja go? Hiding? Sad!

Yeah.

 

[cody1smith]

He is 1 inch taller than Brian kelly. No idea how tall kelly is. But he is 1 inch taller. Also I tend to agree that 190 seems like a stretch. But I'm not educated in size guessing whatsoever.

Kelly wears kids husky pants. So Williams is a size up from husky.

 

[irishog77]

Denson measured 5'9.5" at the NFL combine. Didn't see anyone post that, not that this argument really matters anyway.

Good info. Too bad it falls on deaf ears for koon though, as he is completely ignoring this aspect (among others) of the discussion and entirely focusing on the foolproof methods of "I think" and "I researched rando pics of him on the internet with zero reference points" to make his solid case of "I might be right cuz I have an opinion...and nobody REALLY knows."

 

[arrowryan]

Kyren runs through people like he's 250 pounds; if he runs through people like that at 180, can't wait to see him run through people at 200-205.

But, we're talking about weight concerns with him as if he's gonna be relied upon in 2019. Chances that he'll be needed in 2019 are <5% IMO

 

[Circa]

So this is the guy we're hoping to get at RB?

Seems really small, and doesn't do anything spectacularly well IMO. He has good hands, but short, light, and without great speed? This would be a good get for Navy, but for ND?

I would pass if I were the staff, and try to get some momentum elsewhere.

Why do you consistently try to downgrade our recruits? Do ya really think that those in the know read your posts and react in any way other than... "It's gotta be some sort of want to be in all aspects of life.."

[Henges24]

You guys realize that you just argued the height and weight of one of ND's recruits for five and half hours with zero concrete factual information.

You can tell it's BYE week.

P.S.- If you haven't figured it out by now, this is Koon's bread and butter - he just throws junk out there to you Sharks, without a care in the world if he is right.

 

[T-Boone]

Short running backs are often the best. They can hide and such.

 

[Irish#1]

This has been entertaining. Brings back memories of the great Koon and Wooly fireside chats.

 

[Irish YJ]

obviously wearing platforms....
wonder if he takes the weighted pads off when he runs?
Probably not based on his 40, but looks like he did for the shuttle.
5-8 is, the new 5-10 anyway.
ND's Darren Sproles?

Since I have such a vested interest in Kyren, I wanted to report totals this year.

With 9 games played and only 2 games remaining:

Rushing yards - 1011 on 93 attempts for a 10.9 average and 12 TDs
Receiving - 501 yards on 41 catches for a 14.4 avg and 9 TDs

Also has 53 total tackles, 1 sack, 2 FR and 7 INTs (3 returned for TD) on the year.

He's also the punter with 22 punts and a 37.6 avg

Yeah Yeah Yeah ... but how tall is he and more importantly, how much does he weigh.

 

[irishog77]

How does he do kicking the ball off?

Not bad for 5-7.5/160.

Rudy only produced 1 sack in his entire career at that size.

247 must've got his new height and weight figures.

Still in the playoffs.

Vianney (8-3) will host Jackson (11-0) in a Class 5 quarterfinal at a time and date to be determined.

Story about last weeks game.

Williams carried the ball three times in the second half, gaining 171 yards and scoring three touchdowns from 67, 32, and 72 yards away.

That's about as good as it gets.

Bump was enough to get him into the Top 247. Debut's at #238, up 132 spots.

Good for him. 132 spots is a great jump.

 

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

Do they publish another final ranking when everyone's season is over? Because I think Kyren can climb into the top 200.

He has that compact blend of great balance and speed. Can't wait to see him in a gold helmet.
