Derrick Henry a bust?

That's a dumb question honestly. Analyst were talking about a position change as well. He wasn't even a 5 star on every site but when he has played he has done well so I don't see how he could be a bust as a sophomore. Don't know what some of you expect out of these kids at times.

Terrible thread is terrible.

Bust? No. Over-hyped? Clearly.

Oklahoma wasn't the only thing being crowned coming out of the Sugar Bowl.

I don't think so. He has been a bit disappointing this year, but I think the offensive line hasn't been what we are used to. As others have said, outside the tackles, he is phenomenal, but on the inside, he isn't that great.

The running game is a bust this year. Yeldon has five TDs on the year; the o line isn't opening holes and every team is stacking the box. They can only do so much.

As stated by others: not a bust but definitely overhyped(by us as well)

Very solid back that has played good for us but isn't great......yet.

Henry seems to get better with more carries. He is also faster than he looks. When he gets to that second level he is basically unstoppable. His problem is getting to that second level.

He has not come close to meeting expectations that we had for him going into the year. We really miss Drake.

I brought this topic up yearly a year ago and most of you told me to wait until around the end of this season to ask this question.. 

So what do y'all think? 
Personally to me he hasn't lived up to even half of the hype he got out of high school.

Imo he has performed as expected overall. The transition from HS to college takes longer for some and I don't think DH has reached his potential on this level. He has performed well and has done what has been asked of him by the staff. So no, I do not believe DH is a bust, at all.

So a true soph, who just started for the first time in his career, playing one of the deepest positions we have on the team, is a bust? OK.
