a look inside the numbers shows how impressive Golden was last year.
Greater Miami Conference
you will notice that Golden was hurt in weeks 10 and 11 and still tried to play.
Sycamore, as a team, averaged 38 rushing attempts and 16 passing attempts per game. Golden only averaged 18 carries a game. Not too shabby.
If I had to compare him to somebody I have personally seen run on the high school level, I'd say, physically, he reminds me of a bigger, faster version of Mister Simpson.
Don't let his video fool you. Golden is very, very fast. he just moves so effortlessly (many in this thread have used the word 'smooth') that it doesn't look like he's moving that fast. I like this kid a ton. But I do agree that it could be a battle with Cincinnati.
Also, Golden did play DB as a Sophomore and I have read some 'gurus' say he could still be a DB. I don't see it. The kid is as natural a runner as Cincy has produced in a few years. (DeShawn Winn). All of this is just my opinion of course.
