Thoughts On My Boy Paul Roy

[Guest Nederland Bandit]

Opinions on the RB Roy?

[dave08]

he is a great rb they need to give him a start with bass not being able to perform at 100% but ill be there friday to back roy boy up GO BULLDOGS!!!!

[jake94]

I think he will be a big factor on how far we go this season. As a soph,I think he will learn the game more this season. Look out for him in '08 and '09, he should be an absolute STUD by then. Not a whole lot of running backs are 180-190lbs as sophs with good speed.

I know it was only a freshman game, but Roy put on one of the best perfomances I've ever seen last year against PN-G.  His first four touches of the game were TD runs of 74, 85, 77, and 22.  He had over 300 yds rushing in the 1st quarter.  Ask the PN-G coaches what they think of him?  Roy will be a stud in the years to come.

same thing i was thinking

[NHSBulldogFan]

And he's not kidding on Roy getting 300 yards on his first 4 touches i was there and remember it quite well the only criticism ive heard on him is that he's not a great inside runner and tries to cut it to the outside too much (IMO he's a great outside runner one of the best ive ever seen) it will get better with time though trust me

He has the potential if developed to make even titan a Bulldog fan!

Paul Roy will be good in the future, but as for right now he is just a capable back up for Bass. Cameron Bass is obviously the most talented RB in the bunch, and since he is back to health this week, I seem him getting the majority of the carries on Friday night.

[fbplayer999]

what are bass's stats through 2 games?

[Guest kf89]

roy is the most talented,bass is o.k. but he has not done much with his chances.give the ball to roy,he can break it on any play.

[Wise Guy]

Paul Roy is definately not the best back, and the kid tries to break it outside every freakin play. ROY HAS NO SENSE TO RUN WHERE THE PLAY IS DESIGNED TO RUN. Remember Bass wasn't even supposed to play until district started. I think That CAmeron is going to have a great game on Firday, since he is back to 100%.

I havent seen either back, but 300 yards in one quarter and you say he's not the best back.  You must have some ties to Bass or something cause it takes a special kind of talent to put out those type of numbers.

No ties to Bass, just been watching him to develop over the years. Oh yeah, that 300 yards in a quarter was in a Freshman game last year. If you want to spit Thursday night stats, Bass had over 1800 yards on the JV last year in about 7 games. That's JV/Fresh Thurs. games, so who cares. Bass was effective on Varsity last season, and just hasn't had the blocking to break it open. Then again he has had a hip contusion the past couple of weeks. Look for him to have a good game on Friday.

[Guest 87CRU79]

It's true, Cameron is back to full health this week. He told me to look for the Bulldogs to run a lot of Flex Spread (A back on both sides of the QB), with him and Roy. I personally think that it will prove to work well, as both backs are talented in their own way.

[Yeoj]

Well if you look at the stats for the 2 games this season:

Roy has 66 yards on 11 carries

Bass has 33 yards on 16 carries

Like I said, I havent seen either back, but it seems clear who the better back is.

[Guest kf89]

that no sense to run where the play is,has gotten roy 6yards per carry,behind a suspect O-line.with roy on the feild and getting touches that gives ned. a legitimate homerun threat.why not have all your best runners out on the feild.put bass or roy in the slot,and the other at r.b. and  run & gun baby.

[jake94]

I think both backs bring different skills to the table and can make us tougher to prepare for. I don't see either as "clearly" better than the other. I also thought the 3rd back we used last week did a fine job, #14 Bryce Breaux. I do not think that we have that elite back that we have come accustomed to in the last handful of seasons at Ned, but these three guys can collectively carry the load.

[bulldawg64]

SAME HERE # 14 DID WELL, ALSO USE ALL 3 BACKS, BUT ROY SEEMS TO ME (IMO)

TO BE THE MAN.
