He’s 19.  He’s very raw.

I get it but unlike say route running for a receiver, I think ball carrier vision is basically a pure natural talent. You either have it or you don't. I just don't think he has it. When he gets to the NFL where the whole defense on the other side is also freak athletes I just don't think he'll be effective.

Yea he’s not an NFL back right now but it’s crazy watching these really gifted guys super Mario jump over future life insurance salesmen.

Summary of ND vs IU game IMO is found on the roster.  4/5 star athletes. 

ND: 58 of them 

IU: 10

Indiana just not ready.  Well coached team that still ain’t got the roster to really compete 

And yet, if they had better qb play, and maybe 2 better offensive linemen, the game would have been much closer.  The IU quarterback didn't have a lot of time to thrown, and when he did, he missed several open receivers.  Hit a few of those open receivers, get a little more time to throw, and the game is vastly different.

Sure.  But the talent gap meant less time to throw, needing a couple better offensive lineman, having small windows….vs a Notre Dame team that really wasn’t even playing great.

It's wild watching the media go crazy in the aftermath acting like we watched some great tragedy last night and Indiana/ND was the most lopsided game in college playoff history. It was literally two years ago when UGA beat the fug out out TCU 65-7 in the national championship game.

It doesn’t even rank in the top 3 of just BIG10 beatdowns in the college football playoff era. 

Mich St lost 38-0

Ohio State lost 31-0

Ohio St lost 52-24

and if you want to talk Notre Dame, they have been embarrassed way worse than IU was in the playoffs 

media went hard turn quick, now forced to go say maybe the ACC, BIG12 better than thought.  Nah, it’s just random hot takes after every game.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
