I would never watch a contemporary incarnation of an FSU-Clemson game, but noticed the past few weeks through some research that super-fast-and-athletic Clemson WR, Adam Humphries, seems to have disappeared from Clemson's offense. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised by that as, ultimately, he isn't the right "fit" to be on Dabo's plantation.
I wish he would transfer...such a waste of talent.
That is what hurts our numbers the most, talented players content sitting on the bench. In our eyes it looks terrible but think like a young kid. They probably established a community in their little college world with friends, probably a girlfriend as well. Being on the bench isn't so bad to most, besides having friends/gf, many are set in their majors, real majors where they would lose a certain amount of credits if transferring and many probably picked a particular school because of what they plan to study, plus they still get to live the party life that comes with being a football player, or college student in general. Most have a fall back plan which usually involves their degree (however Southeastern is a little different, half of the White kids say they are going back to work on the farm after college), very rural area surrounding the school hah. They don't have the same mentality that blacks have. Blacks demand the ball and always running their mouth about how you will see them on Sundays and then a bunch of egotistical moves one would usually joke around in the mirror with as a child speaking gibberish translated to "im gonna be like this and like that when im running" This is even at the FCS level, delusional blacks "yo Matt Forte is my cousin dawg, he gonna get me a tryout once Lovie see me do my thang he gonna be like sign that nigga right now to a 3 million dolla contract" then it goes off to what he is going to do with the millions he makes, hoes cars etc. Even heard one who said his cousin's step sister grew up next to Chris Duhon and that Duhon knows some "peeps up in the NFL" that are going to give him a look. The only pro worthy player that I have seen on the local FCS team was offered no tryouts by anybody, Tommy Connors. Yes SELU, I think FootballDad mentioned them, about how a high school could have done the same. They were much better with Connors. He was a hard hitting safety and a leader on d. He would throw blacks around by their helmet if they got beat by anyone besides the 1st team. They almost beat Tulane one year but made stupid mistakes, it was still close for a while. 27-21 final score. Even though Tulane is till horrible they would kill them now. The coach that recruited Tommy is gone, although he was a typical ignorant caste coach who said "a player like Tommy only comes around once a generation at a small school like this". If he had actually scouted more Whites he would realize there are plenty of kids like Tommy. They have this kid in Jena (home of the infamous Jena 6 thing) who is currently 5th in the state for rushing despite playing one less game than most of the leaders. I actually thought about driving 4 hours to watch him play again because I was so impressed, but ultimately too much gas.
However scouts from all over will wind up seeing him if they already haven't. Will teams like Southeastern and Nicholls st recruit guys like this or go for the rejects that the big schools didn't want? the ones that usually perform poorly and wind up getting crushed by these "overlooked" players.
It looks like ULM and La Tech are starting to get smart, but Tech took a step backwards by putting Lee in the slot, the boosters must have wanted a black at the rb spot. Holley is suited for the slot role but Lee could excel either way. The argument I always hear when mentioning this (overlooked players, meaning White) to those who have some influence is always the same, that their skillset won't translate to the next level and that they have already peaked. Yet as we have seen, it does, every opportunity a White gets, they excel. I even am wrong about certain players. I thought Burkhead's game wouldn't translate even though he was great in high school, I was higher on McGuffie, Swope and Wegher. It is actually blacks who struggle at higher percentage to perform well at the next level. And they are the ones who usually peak early around high school or freshman year since they tend to hit puberty sooner and finish growing sooner. I mean that is why we see more true freshmen coming in and playing, some do well and people are all excited like he is going to improve every year and it just doesn't happen. Dion Lewis was like this,
Speaking of LA Tech, didn't see the game but Holley and Lee only had 1 catch a peice, one going for 11 and the other going for 9. Lee had 3 carries for 19 yards, the highest avg on the team for the day. Holley not so great with 7 carries for 5 yard which is why I am more concerned about Lee getting touches than Holley being that he is a lesser talent and has much less pro potential while Lee looks to be that talented to make it in a fair world and if the cards fall the right way he might get a shot the way things are. If they are going to use them as slotbacks, Lee should be getting more carries similar to the way "Saturday Night Livas" got them, it was a unique way to run the ball imo. Here is a clip if anyone is interested.

I don't see why Lee couldn't be used in a similar role. 7:08 is my favorite play, they should use that with Lee, its so simple yet genius, have the wideout in motion and getting the tailback lined in the i to wind up being the lead blocker. But as you can see in the video there are various ways for him to run the ball, usually some type of sweep in shotgun sometimes with a lead blocker or end around if the qb is under center, same concept just tweaked a little bit to work with the qb under center. When I first saw it I kept rewatching it wondering why I didn't think of something like that, so simple yet genius. IMO Welker should have been getting carries like this all along and now that Danny Woodhead lines up in the slot he could do the same thing. Livas was much smaller which is why they limited his carries, like 5'7 170 pounds, plus he was the main return man. Since Lee is bigger and doesn't do kick returns he should get way more than Livas did.
