I'm banking on the O-Line completely changing for the better with the new blood coming in next year and the questionable play from the O-Line (Person, Rehring, captain Boone) graduating. I think we'll see a Cordle-led O-line at this point next year playing much better than Boone's bunch playing right now. And for a lack of what else to say, they better be playing better a year from now.

But back on topic, all this talk about Carlos made me re-watch his youtube highlight video. If I had any doubt, I don't anymore. Carlos is a HB all the way at the next level and I can NOT wait to see some video of him from his senior season. I don't think I've seen a back with better balance than Carlos. He just has an uncanny ability to stay on his feet and keep trucking. Just when you think he's finally going to go down, he finds his balance again (sometimes even using a spin move to find his center of gravity AND break a tackle), keeps his legs pumping, and tries his best to stay in bounds. Stylistically, I think he runs more like Keith Byers than Beanie, but one thing's for sure... he runs like a Buckeye.

Cordle may not even start.. I dont think it will be a Cordle-led anything

The key word for Carlos Hyde is versatility. He reminds me a lot of Jehuu Caulcrick from Michigan State, except with more agility and more speed.

I would love to see our offense utilize him in the same manner USC utilizes Stanly Havili. Kid can block, run, catch.......do it all. Just have to give him the opportunites.
