I'm still wondering what Pittman is lacking to become a great back. He's bigger than Hart and faster than him yet people were calling Hart a great back. Pittman has the frame to get up to 210 and keep most of his speed. There is 0 reason to believe he can't become an elite back. When you put up 1,300 yards and 5.5 ypc as a true sophomore in the Big-10 you deserve some hype. I just find it funny that all the preseason rankings like Sutton(who I think deserves the hype), Hart, and Young ahead of him just in the Big-10. Lynell Hamilton(I know he has great size but he also plays for SDSU), Darius Walker, Ahmad Bradshaw, Thomas Brown, James Davis??? WTF? I had a little faith in CFN after this:
4<SUP>th</SUP> and One – Shhhh, no one knows – You know how you feel when you have a secret. Just a big, fat juicy one. People around you talk and gossip about a certain situation, but you’re the only one who knows the real deal. As a Buckeye fan, is that how you feel about being a fan of RB Antonio Pittman? Most of the nation heralds Adrian Peterson, Marshawn Lynch or Michael Bush, but would you trade the explosive Pittman for any of those other guys? He’s quicker to the hole than any of the three. His breakaway speed is breathtaking. If he gets a seam, he’s gone. Now, you can’t question how good that trio is, but most people are missing the boat on Pittman. Think DeAngelo Williams without the injuries. He still has to prove that he can run between the tackles week in and week out and not be a bounce runner or just a guy who flourishes outside the numbers. But, you don’t run for over 1,300 yards and seven touchdowns at a place like Ohio State and remain a secret for too long. So, go ahead, Buckeye fans, tell everyone, let everyone know now – Antonio Pittman, it’s a name to remember.
But maybe they were just blowing smoke up our asses.
