Emmett Johnson > Anthony Grant

[huskersoup]

Does anyone disagree at this point? I don’t think Emmett is anything special by any means, but he takes what’s available to him far, far more than AG. He’s pretty good at getting skinny and has a little bit of wiggle to him. Loved him trucking their DT today.

Feels like Haarberg vs. Sims. Like I guess one is technically better, but woof

At least Emmet is young though and it does seem like if he gets a hole he explodes through it.

[ChocaEgg]

Both better than ervin

 

[Ext. 55]

Yeah IDK

 

[Herbie]

EJ looks solid.
Just needs reps

 

[ChocaEgg]

I get that we're all excited, but let's settle down for a bit. EJ ceiling pry average P5 back.

Which is probably better than what you get from Grant85% of the time.

 

[That SOB Van Owen]

He fumbles less.

I'm not sure why its so hard to admit that Johnson is pretty good. Especially for a freshman.

That's a great photo

He's currently the best back in the room. We need to portal/JUCO one in & get a high schooler as well

It felt like EJ was dead to rights last year and now feels part of the RB solution moving forward. I do not think he is a starter moving past this year, but you would like someone better than EJ next year as well.

 

[Huskersballz]

Wish they would’ve got him going earlier in the game. Had some good pass pro pick ups as well

I agree.

I disagree. I think Emmett is definitely special.

He's quick, great first move and the speed to house it if he breaks one.

He needs a bit more thickness to be every down, but he's very good. Not AA, but very good.
