Class of 2019 RB Juwaun Price (AZ/New Mex St) TRANSFERRING TO SYRACUSE (12/21/21)

[orangepassion]

What's really important is he'll be here for Spring Practice. Makes our whole team better. Tucker was our only healthy returning back and can't take every rep.

 

[sutomcat]

Really like his film.

Echo what others have said. He will helps on special teams coverage and return units.

He is fast, really nimble and can run you over too if you happen to be in his way.

Maybe a little faster that Lutz but a similar player.

Looks like he has receiving skills too. Could see him playing some in the slot next year while he bides his time waiting for Tucker to leave for the NFL.

And check it out, he ran a 10.60 100 in HS. 21.96 200. Impressive.

Interesting timing, considering we don't have an OC...or do we?

We still have an RB coach.

 

[CuseLegacy]

No and Yes.

Don't they still do those virtual tours?

Yes, good point. He probably did that.

 

[Goin' Deep]

Good back-up for Tucker.
Need a "recovered Hough" so we have that 2 yard guaranteed short yardage back.
And Mr. Price also gives our incoming New Jersey back time to get acclimated.
Good piece to this upcoming season's puzzle...

I think, in absolute "break glass in case of emergency", we could have one of:
Pena, Rhino, Wax - take RB snaps, as all have prior experience toting the rock.

No, I don't wanna see any of that either.

Ideally, Hough is back to 100%, LeQuint gets 4 games to ease into college life, then competes for RB1 the following year vs. Juwaun and Hough & RB croot/transfer to be named later.

Kids a baller. Great job by Staff

 

[CuseLegacy]

Seems like we have ~10 scholarships left to play with now with new commitments/portal.

Yes. Thirteen HS signees and two transfers brings the class to 15.

Sucks to see players leave the program and enter the portal. That being said, both players we have gotten from the portal so far seem to be great players on paper. I think Oliver is a better player than we have leaving the program from the portal. I also think Price is going to make an impact while he’s here. Whether he’s the primary RB2, playing on specials. Either way he’s going to see field time which a bunch of our players in the portal haven’t done. So far we are upgrading in the portal with these 2 players…obviously a lot of work to do but I like the trend in which we are starting to head now in terms of coaches, signing day and inbound portal players

Two key positions of need from a depth standpoint, no doubt.

Still some work left to do in the portal, hope we're able to land an OL, DT, DE, CB, and WR.

All of whom can crack the two deep.

Really like his vision. Sees the opening and immediately accelerates into the open field.

Love one move and go RBs.

 

[Orijinal]

We still have an RB coach.

And the same offensive line coach that paved the way for Tucker

 

[Symphony Steve]

Really like his vision. Sees the opening and immediately accelerates into the open field.

Agree. Plus he makes some nice subtle cuts. He could be our RB 1 when Tucker leaves. Has three years of eligibility.

 

[orangepassion]

If he can block, he can be our 3rd down back year 1.

 

[GoSU96]

Looks like a solid pick up. More powerful than lutz.

 

[JRHEETER]

Good attitude, knows he’s going to be behind Tucker, wants to learn from him and follow him to the NFL

Great get by the staff

 

[baggerbob]

Now when Tucker needs a rest, not a great drop off with the player coming in.

This^^^
On most of those runs its like he twitches and gets space. Not alot of obvious wiggle like you might see from a Jarveon or even Abdul to some extent. But he makes that "twitch" and BAM, he's off- no hesitation. I like his running style. Good get, and at first glance certainly more powerful than Lutz.

 

[corpjet]

Our left handed RBs as valuable as LH pitchers?

Jokes aside nice pick up for much needed depth behind our Heisman Hopeful!

[Chip]

That's some impressive film...

I answer my own question about kick returns - or, 247 does:

“Price added 26 receptions for 181 yards and contributed as a kick returner, bringing recording 20 attempts for 398 yards with a long of 58.”
