Northwestern RB Tyrell Sutton (official thread)
A bit over do, but oh well. I went to the Lake Catholic - Akron Hoban game specifically to see Sutton play, the hour and a hlaf drive was a bad idea though. Overall he was impressive, but much less impressive than Williams. He was dinged up the entire night, on his second carry he came out with a sprained ankle and later on in the night he sprained the other, so take this for what it's worth. He seemed a bit small, but had huge thighs. I'm not sure who I should compare his running style to, very ellusive, yet powerful runner. MLC had like 8-9 in the box all night so his 166 yards weren't impressivce sans his 60+ yard run, in the first (maybe second) quarter. He took the ball and ran over or made about 5 people miss on his way to the endzone, this was early so I was very impressed early on. After that the running yards were harder to come by and Hoban couldn't really pass to take pressure off of him sooo... He's a very talented back with good vision and a nice combonation of moves and power, but I need to see more of him to pass judgement.

Oh yeah that might help, I couldn't find a program, but he was around 5'8"ish I would say around maybe 190, although most weight was in his lower body. His upper body was pretty well built though.

Sounds like he's about as big as Fred Russell.

'05 Ohio RB Tyrell Sutton
http://www.ohio.com/mld/beaconjournal/7485837.htm
This article is kinda old but I had not seen it previously. Sounds like a tough kid.

``You don't want to take a hit and cry and go home and have everyone laughing at you,'' Sutton said. ``If you have blood on you, wipe it off and keep on playing.''

Quote:
Good enough size
It is ironic that Connie Sutton feared that Tyrell might get hurt playing varsity football as a freshman.
Nowadays, the 5-foot-9, 185-pound Sutton is delivering the punishment, one of the many improvements he made in 2003.
``Don't get me wrong, Tyrell runs hard,'' Orsini said. ``But he just put it in another gear and hit some defenders and actually hurt them this year. I've seen games where somebody would hit him and Tyrell is actually the person who delivered the blow.''
|
Quote:
He rushed for 2,439 yards in 2002 and he broke Tony's single-season school rushing record.
``I expected to maintain the same numbers (in 2003), but I didn't expect to have like three 300-yard games,`` Sutton said.
His running abilities are now feared on Bloomfield, Grant, around Akron and, oh yes, across Ohio.
