I honestly never thought I'd see a running back in Scarlet and Gray who was better then Eddie George.


And then Zeke came along.

That being said, I'm excited to see if Curtis Samuel gets to move back to RB next year. I'm not sure he'll be the between the tackles horse that Eze is, but I think he could explode next year.

One last look at Zeke's 47 yard run in the Fiesta Bowl:

Kind of surprised, there was one play against ND where he hit the rusher and definitely slowed him, but Zeke fell down and the player definitely pressured the QB. PFF may have graded it as QB held the ball too long, but I remember thinking at the time "I wonder if that ruins his perfect pass blocking efficiency."

Noticed that too.. also a sack against Illinois too where both he and I think Baugh failed to stop their rush end. Either way not complaining he's the best blocking RB (maybe even anyone for that matter) I've ever seen.

I mean people do cartwheels and flips when zeke cuts them. That's when you know you got them good! I did that once in a college game and it's not easy to do but zeke has them everytime he leads. Uncanny.

Damn I'll miss his style and how tough he was. I don't even recall him limping off the field once the last three years despite his bullish style. Incredibly durable, tough, fast and all around good dude.
