Class of 2021 RB Josh Hough ( MR PA FOOTBALL) SIGNED NLI TO SYRACUSE (12/16/20)

[Nick44]

In the last 100 recruiting battles with Pitt, we’ve probably won less than 20% of them. Feels good.

He reminds me of Jimmy Brown. He's big, fast, and athletic.

I know it's still early in the game, but he has the potential to take 44 out of the rafters and return it to the playing field. Time will tell.

Like this take A LOT!

it did not even take 150 posts to get a Jim Brown comparison.

ThIs place never fails

For a 2 star rated recruit according to some sites as well.

I sense a potential new board favorite

When you combine smash mouth with this passing attack... yeah definitely!

*bnoro’s music begins playing*

This is in contention for one of the best posts this board has ever seen.

Almost. He reminds me of a mix between, Jim Brown, Ernie Davis and Floyd Little. A little Joe Morris in him too and some wiggle like Robert Washington. Otherwise I agree.

 

[BANYC]

Why was he only a 2 star/3 star? Based on his film, stats, and good competition in the WPIL, it seems he should be a solid 3.
Anyone have any insight?

Syracuse doesn't have any premium subscribers on R!val5.

So far so great.
These 3 kids (Hough, Folk and Lockett) are, by all accounts, high character athletes who represent everything you like in college football: skills, smarts and apparent maturity. They should only improve with time (note I did not mention S&C) . I mean, yeah, they're still juniors in locked out high schools, but I'm rationally exuberant about their careers. I like where this is heading.
Gotta make it to a bowl this year. Of course we'll need a season first to do that.
LGO.

Pretty impressive tape. Big boy who can move - I like it. Plus he plays against decent competition too.

Former Syracuse football player Paul McKee is also from Beaver Falls, PA. He might be better known as a football coach for RFA, VVS, and most notably Rush-Henrietta.

One of his sons also played lacrosse at the 'Cuse and was a first-team All American in 1981. Beaver Falls has been kind to the Orange!

What the hell is PA Nike Elite? Don't tell me there's AAU in football too now?

Great story and glad we committed to the opportunity Josh was seeking

Sounds like a great kid. I thought his film was as impressive as I have ever seen from a RB committed to Syracuse. I think he has a chance to be special.

Don't remember Dino promising a player he would stay at his preferred position. At most, it is rare. That tells me he is really well regarded by the staff as well.

Think Dino watched the NFL playoffs and liked what he saw from the Titans. Saw his opportunity and pounced.

It's not quite the corrupt debacle that AAU bball is yet but it's certainly on the right path!

 

[Franz69]

Can't wait to see what the Wolverine does with this kid.

Yeah, the shoe companies seem to be involved and that's always a good sign!

 

[reedny]

Really glad Dino stuck his neck out and made the promise. Not only is Josh is a high character young man, I think he has a chance to be the next Jerome Smith, or better. # 44?

Also, his voice is like a combination of Fergie and Jesus.

We "promised" Stritz a shot at RB. Which we gave him.
Everybody else wanted him as a DB/S.

And... he's in the defensive backfield for us now, because it's his best position.
