Actually, this seems to be the best way to utilize hairlice. I will be interested to see how his durability handles this new role. Once he gets hit at full speed, the OW may refer to what hairlice keeps saying while hiding on the sidelines.
I can't really put the Penn State game on him. He fumbled trying to come up with the game winning play. Sucks that it happened and I guess he could have just tucked it after the first down, but it's not like it was a ball thrown right to Manti Teo 60 times in 1 game or anything.For all the great things Denard did in a scUM uniform, how many of his mistakes, stupid TO's and the fact he could not stay on the field b/c he was hurt every 5 plays cost them games?
You can make an argument that he lost as many games as he won for scUM. I can't say the same for Pryor. He single-handedly won quite a few but struggling to come up w/ more than 2 he lost. The Purdue and PSU games come to mind. Can't think of anymore that I would clearly pin on him and his mistakes.

cincibuck;2348939; said:As I read the comments from several of you stating that Denard built his stats and his rep on the UMass teams of this world. I thought that perhaps there was something to that line of thinking. So I went to:
http://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/denard-robinson-1/gamelog/
And came away thinking that what I saw was a pretty consistent performance regardless of opponents along with the good day/bad day events that every player experiences. Perhaps the best example is to take his stats from the year most of you are pointing to, 2010, when UMass was on the Michigan schedule:

As I look at the stats (sorry they don't line up with their headings) it says to me that he padded his record against Notre Dame, Wisconsin, Ohio State and Mississipi State as well as other teams on the schedule.
As you look at the rest I think it reveals that Ohio State's defense played him better than most other teams - something to take pride in- and that teams that had time to prepare- bowl games and Alabama - found a way to limit either his running or his passing.

HorseshoeFetish;2348984; said:It's not like I wish him serious harm or anything. I just don't see the point of implementing new rules for player safety, and then allowing a guy who taps out at the college level so frequently a chance to play in the NFL The dude is nothing more than a gimmick IMO. I find it hysterical that the Jags had to make up a position name for him. It's even funnier when it's defined.

Patrick Willis can certainly deliver the Ow to Denard, as can many defensive players in the NFL.
WolverineMike;2348987; said:oh, I wasn't implying you were.....I'm very curious to see what kind of a career he can carve out for himself.
