Agree with this recollection. I didn't blame SJ however. Special teams coach apparently didn't focus him on north/south till he was a senior.

It seems to me that most guys that have enough speed to run away from guys in high school pick up a lot of bad habits, including running sideways, backwards, in circles, etc, (something entirely instinctual to them) and when they get to the level and speed of competition here, find they cannot do that - however it usually takes a couple years to break them of their bad habits. Yes it is ultimately on the position coach, but it still takes time and repetitions to gain enough discipline to overcome some of their instincts.

It's possible the P5 schools won't take him just because he's kind of short (5'7). We can dream anyways : )
Sproles is 5'6" I believe. And K State loved him. Of course he was built like a fire plug...


Eric Curry STILL makes me sad.

Tucker finished the game with 15 rushes for 182 yards as he helped the Tigers beat Little Elm 33-7 Friday night at Memorial Stadium.

I'd say he's a keeper. He takes a perceived weakness (height) and turns it into a strength.
