camp body? I don't get to see too much UNC football (am stuck in SEC country) so what do ya'll think of this move? Does he have a chance of unseating CAP, or is that not his "style" of running?

I see zero reason why he can't compete with Fozzy or CAP.

This is a fantastic move. I wrote about this in the other thread but Hood has a ton of talent. He was off and on hurt at UNC which really seemed to hurt his draft stock, further he came out in a loaded RB class when he really could have used an extra season in school. 

Throw in the fact that this guy is PS eligible and sign me up, his upside is that he could be our back of the future next to CMC.

A seventh-round pick in the 2017 draft, Hood spent most of his rookie year on the Raiders' practice squad. He did dress for one game but only played eight special teams snaps in a Week 8 loss at Buffalo.

Easily could outcompete Fozzy; toe to toe with CAP

    • OK honestly I don’t identify like that but if I did I would think about being the first raised on TV generation (bad), we were probably latch key/before the term was invented - because I was raised by a single working parent, stuff like that. No baby sitters until after dark. Afternoons you just waited for an adult to show up. We were the bussing generation where they tried out their social engineering and forcing the races together in school (good and bad in that), and definitely the first bunch to have to deal with the threat of the big bomb going off. I, like everybody else was taken out in the hallway at school and taught how to and where to sit and receive my radiation dose if someone nuked us. And then they killed our president right in front of us. That is probably the most destabilizing thing that gets the least attention. The atomic bomb and the potus killing.  Around t(e same time we had the Beatles and music becoming a youth thing, with the youth gaining economic power they still have today, and top it off with a good memory of childhood - all tne Coke bottle caps had pictures of NFL players in them. We collected them. I particularly remember Mick Tinglehoff Minnesota Vikings lol. Complete with flattop haircut. We had pro football before there was ever a super bowl and in those days baseball was the king of sports in the US.But football was coming for them. And soccer was what weird funny talking foreigners did lol.
