So they were good two years, with a heisman winner at QB, and bad one year without him. All under Urban......So it isn't only the scheme, but the talent. Got it.


The focus of the comparison is the RB talent, and these are the same exact guys all 4 seasons. Why did their production change so drastically as upperclassmen? No Tebow meant less room for them to run.

Tim Tebow was going to make anyone look good. Just like Cam. Hell, Johnny Manziel had RBs average the same as Auburns with Cam and if you try and tell me their scheme inflates YPC for running backs I'm going to call you a fricking moron. There's a reason Nick Marshall never had his #1 RB average more than 6 YPC. It's because it's not the scheme, it was the players, which is my entire point and all you've done is reiterate that for me with your stats. You're also comparing 180 pound scat backs needing space to Bo Jackson needing space. Weren't you the one talking about apples to oranges earlier ITT?

Here's the long and short of it:

You love using YPC for Chubb because it let's you be a homer when comparing him to Fournette. However, when comparing Bo and Herschel, YPC isn't a good stat to use because it doesn't work out in Herschel's favor.

A.K.A Cherry picked stats. Good night.
