Regarding Lacy I am not sure where the extra coaching came from. I don't know if it is from the redshirt year or the extra time before having to be the man but he is a much more polished RB than Ingram or TRich are even today. I don't know if the other guys were uncoachable or what but in their last group of carries at UA RB's they still had their bad habits. Ingram still danced, and Richardson still only had the truck move and no vision. Nearly 5 combined years in the NFL hasn't helped them either. Lacy (and before he left to do what he did Coffee) have had more NFL success because they do the little things like blitz pickup, finding holes, keeping their head on a swivel, keeping their feet moving. For all the talent that Mark and Trent had they never seemed to improve their skills at RB.
