I've been telling you guys that since last year...not that he sucks, but he's more of a run-of-the-mill type college RB, not on the level of Barner or James. Ducks need to get Tyner up to speed and start him at RB, and let Thomas revert back to his prior role.
Nah, Thomas is killing it. You don't mess with that, but Tyner needs to take all of Marshall's carries right now.
Woah... Sorry to go OT, but Cal is currently being given all they can handle by the mighty Portland State Vikings.
I would have really liked to have seen more of Tyner today, but I think they wanted to give him a taste and then sit him down because the risk of injury in a pointless game is not worth it.
Nah, my parents went to UO, so I grew up a Ducks fan. I went to PSU because I didn't really start college until 27 and it made no sense to go to Oregon.
Players like DAT are awesome in college, but are never as great in the pros. I think DAT had the potential to be a shut down corner in the NFL....a Deion Sanders type talent. He'd probably have been better off, career wise, to stick with being a DB. He's fun here while he lasts though.
His type is starting to become good NFL players. Darty little position players like Sproles, Welker, Woodhead, McCluster, Eddie Royal, Donnie Avery, Desaun Jackson have all done good in the NFL recently. Find a way to get him in the open field and he'll be a great weapon in the NFL.
