219! Wow, that’s is a big back for us. I realize Ollie was 225 his last year. Hawkins could be really fun to watch. If we could just block a bit…..
We hear the birthing pains let’s just see the baby.
Gross.
Hope he’s a lot faster than Ollie.
Ollie was fast enough to win the Doak Walker…
Really wanting to see if our offensive line can control the line of scrimmage!!! I have not seen an OSU line in years that can move DL’s off the line and create holes for our RB’s. If we can do that this year and keep the defense off the field we are on our way to 7 or possibly 8 win season!
I was thinking - hope he is AS fast as Ollie. Ollie outran a lot of people and seemed to have another gear when necessary.
- Seem to recall the last staff wanting to recruit CH as a LB. He’s holding the weight well - if he CAN increase his speed and power, not only will he break arm tackles but he should be able to shed some LBs too… recall riding my bike into summer classes in the summer of '88 and I’d see Barry running the stadium all by his lonesome self. I hope CH has that desire!

If you think 4.6 is fast for an RB okay: Did Ollie Gordon’s Combine Performance Hurt His Draft Stock? | PlayerProfiler
Like I said to the other guy, 4.6 is NOT fast for an RB. You are right, that’s what I heard about Hawkins, previous staff was thinking LB, lol.
