Many of you have seen me write how I saw Jayden Limar as a transfer candidate out, and was surprised to see him stay. I wrote that, "he does not have breakaway speed, does not have power, and does not have wiggle."

Anyone else as surprised as I am?

Oopsie!

I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised. He always struck me as kind of a lower end small-ish fastback that would have trouble cracking the 2-deep. These last 2 games have shown that he's obviously put in the time at practice and in the weight room. If he keeps this up I'm not sure how Will Stein can keep him on the bench for long periods.

Charles, I agreed with you and I ‘m as pleasantly surprised as you are.

Yes!

But absolutely thrilled to be wrong! He decolped big time.

But also a quick observation when Oregon went 2 back sets one was pretty much always Limar (at least while the ones were playing). He didn't get the handoff but he was a blocker and made some significant blocks for others.

My thinking was the same....happy to be wrong. Football is a meritocracy....thankfully.
