Title: Jake Hutson
Post by: vu72 on November 04, 2012, 08:57:21 PM
Jake was just named PFL Player of the Week!  congrats to him. When you consider guys like Jake, a redshirt freshman, Eric Hoffman, a sophomore, and other key players being so young, you have to step back and see some potentila here.  BTW, has anybody noticed that Jake is LISTED at 5'6".  I can see why bigger programs may have shyed away, to our good luck!

Reminds me of Danny Woodhead of my NE Patriots.  He's listed as 5-8,  200 but when you see him on the field he's more like 5'6..  Went to Chadron State (D-II) cuz no one thought he was big enough.

It is rare for a guy with the size of Darren Sproles to be a RB at a larger D-1 program (Kansas State).  You often don't see them get that chance, so most go D-2 or D-1AA
