Let's Talk Denard Robinson. The Kid's a Star.

Quote:Full article on grantland.com devoted to D Rob's transition to RB. I'll read it later but grantland is usually top notch. Should be an interesting read. The world is starting to take notice.

Nice read. Here's a fun quote.

 

Quote:It’s not hard to see Jamaal Charles or Chris Johnson — the dreadlocks sticking out the back of Robinson’s helmet help — when watching Robinson aim directly for his offensive tackles, ready to slipstream into the open field. Because as impressive as Robinson’s 4.43 speed is, it’s his willingness to wait for blocks that really has him succeeding. Like an ambulance with sirens blaring, Robinson can run red lights, but he’s found that stopping briefly at intersections helps prevent disaster, too. This season, he has zero fumbles on 102 touches.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:'Harriet Text', Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;font-size:16px;">“He is understanding the stretch and cut. He’s understanding the stretch and bounce and understanding when you’re running outside zone what’s your reads,” Jacksonville offensive coordinator Jedd Fisch told the Florida Times-Union. “Even earlier in the season, maybe we missed a read, because we were too fast to the hole and the block didn’t develop quick enough. He’s understanding when he’s running inside he’s got to run with lower pad level.”
