Mason is a beast

[ElCidBUZZingFAN]

He deserves his own thread.

His ability to break arm tackles and maintain balance after first contact is Emmitt Smith-esque.

Regardless of how much he straight balled out yesterday, he’s so fun to watch.

A future first round draft pick, power and balance

+1 .

Dude doesn't go down easily at all. He made a lot happen after contact yesterday and always seems to fall forward for an extra yard or two. I don't know if he has top end speed to be a high draft pick, maybe he does. He is a helluva player though.

Awesome to already be reaping the benefits of CGC croots

Pure caveman.

Not fast enough to go that high, but I think he gets drafted. His ability to break tackles is nuts and always seems to fall forward 2/3 yards. Kid is just slippery out there.

His run down the middle of the field and cut to make LB miss was elite

Glad Johnson redshirted him. If I remember right he wasa little disgruntled at being RS'd and Howard playing as true freshman

Broke 2 arm tackles and broke another dude’s ankles.

Fight me.

IIRC the staff caught some flak for even taking him. Iowa State was his only other P5 offer.

Regardless, we're lucky to have him!

LOL. The #1714 ranked player.

 

[User 10337]

He's got pretty good vision and patience too. I also haven't recalled getting pissed off at any of the RBs during pass pro. So I'm pretty sure he's doing at least a decent job in that department as well.

I'd like to see his measurables before we start spouting off "1st rnd pick" type statements.

Where? Because his committed thread is nothing but praise.

It's like poker. Sometimes you flop 4-6-7 to go with your 5-8

Pretty sure he ran past the Quarterman beast during that run. Not many RB can run past Quarterman who will be playing on Sunday.

Ironically, he's one of the few starters that actually DOES represent the "non-P5 talent" recruiting refrain that's been spouted all season in an attempt to downgrade our players.

I doubt he's fast enough to be a R1 talent, but he looks like an NFL back to me. Big, consistently runs through arm tackles, can catch, and can make people miss without going east-west and losing yards.
