Irons will end up with more rushing yards than any of these guys when it is all said and done if he remains healthy. Even if the kid is only the full time starter his JR and SR. I asked one of the coaches today out of all the back who do you see going pro he says for sure Irons and that a few others will get free agent deals.

If it happens, that would be consistent with my prediction when he was recruited, so it wouldn't surprise me at all. I just don't see any reason to put more pressure on him right now.

And the rich will keep getting richer, hopefully. All Dontez Rash keeps doing is lighting it up this year in high school and CJ Hilliard will be eligible to play next year. Sheesh!!

I'm thinking Hilliard might end up at Safety. As for Rash, presuming he redshirts, he'll be two years behind AJ and Irons, so he's definitely needed.

C'mon. Every player starts at the beginning of his playing. Daz played plenty over the past years when he wasn't that productive. It's this year that Daz has really started all around maximizing.

If Irons is showing well already, without having to play for a year or two before he shows great stuff...and with his size.... Irons.

And imagine what he'll be over the next 2.5 years.

Which leads to the third question.

Monroe. It really gets old cleaning up your messes. Please stop just making stuff up. 2012 Beau started and averaged 5.1 yards/carry. Daz playing late in games averaged a much better 5.7 and people were sure .... 2013 Beau again started and averaged 4.5, while Daz again cleaned up averaging a much better 5.6. End of game duty is like that. Today Irons averaged 4.5 yards/carry to Ouellette's 8.5. Stop with the smoke and mirrors. Mr. Irons will have his days. Perhaps soon. Brown averaged 6.3. He also averaged above Irons.

Way to leave out 2014 which was 4.0. And NO ONE was clamoring for Daz.

If you think Daz's first 15 carries were similar to Irons' first 15 then you are blind as well as willfully ignorant.

Have a nice day.

Ian Well will get picked up too possibly drafted. Lots of talent on this team maybe overall the best Ohio has has in a long long time. Next weeks game is crucial though then BGSU looms ahead. Hopefully Heitzman is okay.
