The dude is 5'6".  It took Darren Sproles about a week, maybe two, before he was the first skill player in the Snyder era to have his redshirt pulled.  Demarcus Robinson has had a year.  He's just not what we hoped for.
Using Sproles as the standard by which we measure every potential usable running back seems like something a Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) might do.

It's fun to watch KU fans do this with Reesing.

It was hard to tell when he was on the opposite side of the field from where I was sitting, due to the giant crown.

Anyone under 5-7 could not be seen from across the field back in the day . . . due to the crown.

Snyder promised Demarcus Robinson he would be at K-State for his whole career #manofhisword

Does this mean OB is off the hook now?  Free to go about his merry way?

When you're 5'6" your options are limited.  I'm not comparing Bryce Brown to Sproles.  Name a successful 5'6" running back that wasn't like Sproles and I'll concede the point and declare myself a Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).

Would you like to dig up a list of badass skills guys that Snyder did redshirt over the years?  Cause it's pretty much everybody not named Darren Sproles.

Can you list some?  The only badasses I can think of came from a JUCO and didn't redshirt.

I don't care if Rivals gave Demarcus six stars.  If the coaches have seen him for a full year and still say he isn't as good as John Hubert then he needs to move on for his own good.

Kevin Lockett?  :dunno:

That's great but will feel better when scoops confirms. :lynchmob:
Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever
