A Potential Day 3 RB who Could Make a Huge Impact

Jeremy Hill - RB - LSU

 

In 2012, Jeremy Hill, a Freshman running back, got some snaps at RB after LSU's stable of backs were suffering injuries.  Since his first game, roughly a quarter of the year in, Hill's compiled:

 

2,156 Yards on 345 attempts

Career YPC: 6.2

Rushing Touchdowns: 28

 

In 2013, after being suspended for game one against TCU, Hill put up:

1,401 Yards on 203 attempts

Season YPC: 6.9

Rushing Touchdowns: 16

 

Hill has great vision and is a homerun hitter at any point and time.  He has been revered for his blocking as a back, and has a big thick frame with the speed to break away at the next level.  He displayed solid hands out of the backfield.

 

He's is projected in the 3rd to 5th round of the draft, due to one reason and one reason only

 

"Character Issues"

 

He ran into some legal trouble both prior to LSU and after his freshman campaign.  

Arrest 1) As an 18 year old, apparently made some 14 year old suck him off

Arrest 2) Was drunk at a bar in "Tigerland" where he sucker punched a dude harassing him (reason he missed the TCU game)

 

Freshman Year Highlights:

 

Sophomore Year Highlights:

Against A&M

 

Iowa Game Highlights

 

Obviously this is a homer pick to me, but after watching the dude the past two years, hes got potential to be a really good back the next couple years.  He rarely suffered injuries while at LSU and hes got a big thick frame.  On top of everything, hes got a lot of tread left on the tires since LSU uses such a large stable of backs

 

This would allow the Panthers to potentially move some guys around who have big contracts who don't play...

Arrest 2 is quite irrelevant. I think the 14 year old thing pretty much excludes him from consideration. Call it the Jerry Veto or the Jerry guideline but if dude is frowning on tattoos with a Franchise QBs I doubt he would really warm up to a guy that was getting oral favors from a little girl. I suspect the scouts may have scratched him off the short list for self preservation purposes.

      Robert Hunt Practice Window Activated

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.

      Chad ‘Ochstradamus’ Johnson and Shannon Sharpe on Panthers

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.

      I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
