RB Jaamal Berry (Transfer to Murray State)

You have to consider LJ wasn't carrying a ball and fresh off an ankle injury as well. I don't really want to get into the angle argument or listen to anyone else get into it either. Bottom line is that LJ and JB are fast dudes. Not many people are going to catch either from behind so yes, JBerry is a legit burner.

is it true that he runs a 4.31 40? i mean i know hes fast but in some of his clips some people can run him down from far behind.

Maybe it was in the 80th yard. I heard his speed actually drops off in logarthimic fashion after that first 40. :biggrin:

Berry says that Meyer didn't call him during his OSU visit, but he did send him texts.

Also, talks about his recruitment, areas he wants to improve on when he gets to Columbus, playing with TP, The Rivalry and Lamarcus Joyner catching him from behind.

I could be wrong but I thought text messaging was not allowed by college coaches?
Either way, I am really excited to get JBerry up here working with our guys. I've heard great things about his work ethic and obviously, his talent is great. Looking forward to it!!:biggrin:

Although Ohio State has recently lost Chris Wells, there is no excitement lost on the incoming freshman running back Jaamal Berry. Berry, out of Miami Fla., is ranked ESPN's No. 3 running back of the 2009 class, 22nd overall.

At 5 feet 11 inches and 185 pounds, Berry has shown to be the type of speedy running back the Buckeyes have been looking for. He brings multiple talents and an intense physicality to the program, said Kevin Noon, managing editor of ohiostate.rivals.com.

"Where some smaller backs have failed before, I think that Berry has the physicality to really complement any other running back that Ohio State will have in his time," Noon said.

Berry, though smaller than any of the running backs that have recently been at OSU, has speed not typically seen in the Big Ten, with a 4.31-second 40-yard dash.

"Berry is very unique in his running style. He is much more like an SEC runner than anything else," Noon said.

Steve Helwagen of Bucknuts.com said Berry is the perfect guy to come into the program and play with last year's breakout quarterback Terrelle Pryor.

"He's a guy that would be really good out of the spread formation playing with Pryor because he can catch the ball out of the back field and he seems to have good vision in the open field," Helwagen said.
