Tell me your thoughts on these statements I just read about our RB's....
From a "MSU fan".....
1. Griffin will not play this season, unless late in the year and be done.
2. Milton is better than JRob by a good bit.
3. JRob is a bigger L. Perkins
Go...

1. Bullshit- he'll be ready sooner than later, but no idea if he can regain his old form
2. JRob has lost some weight- 15 pounds or so I hear
3. Not anymore
Walk like the King or walk like you don't care who the King is

What's your thoughts on that?

Does Robinson losing weight help or hurt him? Think losing weight equals losing power?

Nick acts as if he'll be ready for OSU, so at least he's planning for it.

oh shit- I did misread that. Supposedly he has dropped some weight to help with lateral cuts
uhhh no. JRob is the #2 and should be given more carries. Milton aint bad either, but there was a reason JRob averaged 6 ypc last year

Ha, I figured you misread it, and I knew you would share my thoughts.

JRob runs with way more power and attitude than Perkins does. I don't know where the guy got that JRob was just a "fat Perkins" Stupid statement is stupid.

I misread it too. Sorry thought it said Robinson is bigger than Perkins. He is- he's thicker. But not in a bad way. That guy is legit.

Would it make more sense if I revealed the poster as "Sandman"?

Yes. Yes it would. Good Lord some of our fans need to get a grip.

I agree. I don't think we will, but I definitely would be in favor of a redshirt. We already have Perk, JRob, Milton and even Shumpert if needed...so there's no reason to waste his season. According to his comments, he is 100% ready to go, but I expect nothing less.

I think he is ready to go and our best back but would help the team more next year. Hope he sits out but knowing players, he will want to play. Prob doesnt matter with jron, milt and shump behind him
-
I do hate that Griffin's been hurt, not just for the team, but for him personally. If anyone deserves to catch a break and have success, it's him.
-
What will we do with Ashton this fall? Rb? Redshirt? Safety? With rb being a deep position I hope we give him a look at safety.
-
I kinda hope Shump is better and used on defense even though I've only seen him play once- the MS-AL game. He looked just okay at RB to me there.. I liked how he jumped right back up after getting blown up by Reuben Foster, though.
I really hope Nick can pull it off, he could be a beast if his knees would hold up.

Griffin cannot redshirt because I believe he already has. We could however, hold him out all year, then later apply for the 6th year of eligibility due to medical hardship.

That wasn't Shumpert that was blown up. Shumpert actually ran over Foster and hurt him during the game.
