Man, just watched 9 minutes of highlights and this kid was only tackled a handful of times outside the end zone.  What’s his level of competition like at Chapel Hill?

That is the issue with a lot of RB highlight videos. Its just a collection of long runs, usually better to skim through some game film if you can find it.  I didnt get through it all, but did notice he runs very upright. Though I didnt see a play where he needed to lower his pads. Definitely has speed and a nice 1 cut running style. 

What if I roguely choose to disrespect his decision?  With that being said and all...

Then you'd be a no-fun, crotchety old man. 😉

I agree with ya 100%, but I saw a more than one cut ability.  Granted, most plays he only needed one cut, but on a few other plays he showed great vision and elusiveness.  I’m hoping he’s like Jonathan Brooks and D’Onte Foreman where he just makes it look easy.  That’s why I asked about his level of competition.  Is he in a tough district?

1 cut comment was not a negative, more about a style.  He just seems to be very decisive. He sees the hole, its one cut, and he is off.

He is a very upright runner despite the height. Seems to have some breakaway speed but what stands out to me is 1. The speed doesn't gas out on long runs and 2. He doesn't lose any speed with change of direction or cuts. Very effortless running. 

If he wants to be a Horn he better lock up his spot quick

The right tackle is really good.

Guilty AF

Is Choice's philosophy/MO to take two backs per cycle and let attrition take care of the rest?
