clayton isn't getting enough credit

[ksuno1stunner]

remember him making 2 spins in a row when he gained around 11 yards?  he didn't want to go down today.

He pulled the classic, "if louisville is top 10...what does that make us?"quote

he got shoe string tackled at least 3 times i can think of in the first half.  all his yards came after the game was decided.  he gets too much credit.

I think the game dictates Claytons carries. Had they been more effective with the pass game. I believe Clayton would have had more carries / yards!

Oh, Defense was great expect for the personal foul that gave ville a first down. Defense can't stay on the field all day and muzzel a  top 10 team. JMO

Once again KSU kept the game competitive and held ville to 24. I'm still encouraged. This team will continue to get better.

Saw Josh for the first time. Don't know if he should start next game, but see an athlete full of big time potential! Reminds me of El . Except I think he's more physical as a true freshman!

It sucks that nobody is giving us credit for holding L'Ville to their lowest score and yard total yet. Figures, they might not get held to that low of a point total again, but you know we won't get any credit.

Freeman shouldn't start, still too green. Ell couldn't throw like Freeman can.

I suspect your right about the arm. Probably going to be strong like Bishop! Very talented kid though. He could very well end up being one of the best we've had. If they can keep the girls out of his bed!

I get the idea the Freeman gets a ton of action. Just a hunch though..

coincidence clayton/team ran better with freeman in there?

[waks]

yes, I think it probably had to with the fact that they were blitzing every play to make Freeman mess up. They over pursued and we exploited it.

[Beijing Cat]

Clayton had 3.6 ypc if you through out the 69 yard scamper. I agree the longer runs he had came about due to the D trying to T-off on Freeman or a inconistant Meir late in the Game. I do not see TC improving until the pass offense starts to open things up.

Of course it only took him 2 1/2 years to decide that he didn't want to go down.  I've said it before and I'll say it again, with that build and strength there is NO WAY ON GOD'S GREEN earth he should ever go down after one hit.  I saw him drop this weekend at least 3 times after arm tackles. 
.
Point being that body building strength does not equal football strength.  Give me a guy that can clean 300 X 12 and I'll take him every day over a guy that can curl 135 x 12.  Clayton's body is not built for football, its built for the beach.  End of story.

And don't forget, he's still Bobby Bowden's left-overs.

I don't know what to think of Clayto.

-Good speed. Follows blocks.

Neg

-Falls down to easily to arm tackles.  3rd and 5 in 1st half, lou defender drops him.

Has big biceps but needs  stronger bigger legs.

[BRULL]

The only reason t-gun got the td was due to noone on the louisville team touched him until he got to the 5 yard line. I'm pretty confident if just one of the dlineman would have at least touched t-gun's shouldpad coming through the line, clayton would have spun and fallen down.

[swish1]

what happened to james johnson?

[McGrowlTowelZac]

from what i have heard, johnson is having a hard time getting up to speed on the play book.  I think we will continue to see alot of clayton the rest of the year.

i also think clayton doesn't have the best field vision, sometimes when there is open space he doesn't always seem to see it well. 

I agree on going down to easy, that open field tackle on his shoe string was really annoying, a good back makes that guy miss and takes it up the field for a big gain, or atleast gets the first
