But if what you say is true, then I can't wait to see this guy suit up.

ToTheLeft wrote:Rashad ran well. He ran smart. He didn't run REALLY hard. Running hard is like Mike Alstott. Shad is strong, but he was smart about it.He broke tackles at times and at times he used his speed and agility to get around defenders. This is an all around RB who runs hard but runs smart. I think Rashad is strong enough to run over some linebackers in the NFL but isn't fast enough to outrun them. His running style in the NFL will be more like a fast bruiser. I think he could have a similar impact on a team as Lendale White does for the Titans and Jonathan Stewart does at Carolina.
Shad could break tackles at times when guys make weak arm tackle efforts. But he had moves and speed to get around guys, rather than run people over and thru people.

I just don't see him as as hard of a runner as one of those guys... but he posseses that power and uses it at times.LenWhale is a fat piece of garbage [/disgruntledfantasyowner]

They said they will put their pledges in writing Feb. 4, the first day recruits may sign national letters of intent.
Green also visited Hawai'i the past weekend, and came away impressed with the UH's coaches and players.Click Here for Full Story
"The city is beautiful," Green said. "The people are great. They made me feel welcomed."
Green's host was cornerback Lametrius Davis. They were teammates at Butte, as well as middle-school classmates in Portland.
"I've known him a long time," Green said.
Davis played for Butte in 2008, and signed with UH the past December. He enrolled at UH two weeks ago.
Green said he is 6-2 and 220 pounds, and is capable of sprinting 40 yards in 4.49 seconds.
He can bench press 310 pounds.
Green also said Hawai'i's family-friendly atmosphere is conducive to raising children. He has a 7-month-old daughter, Harlym.
"I wanted to pick a name that would be unique," he said.
Green added: "Hawai'i is a good fit."
By verbally committing to the Warriors, Green is turning down scholarship offers from Washington, Texas-El Paso and Liberty.
