You'll get that kind of RB when Carlos Hyde steps on campus next year.

For whom the Bell tolls
Dorian Bell posted an incredible stat line as a tailback in Gateway's 49-7 drubbing of Norwin this past weekend.
According to Mike White of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Bell only had two carries for the game, but they both went for touchdowns, each over 80 yards in length. Bell averaged an amazing 84 yards per carry.
Bell currently averages a hair below 23 yards per rush, and he could challenge for the state record of highest average per carry, set in 1957 by Lewistown's Fred Stoicheff, who averaged 14.52 yards per carry on 69 attempts, according to the Pennsylvania Football News Resource Guide. (Note: it is not known if there is a minimum rushes requirement to set this record.)

Great news (and not surprising) that both Corey and Dorian were named to the U.S. Army All-American game.
Should be a good experience for both and nice to have more representation for Ohio State.

Think about how he stiff-arms when he runs., imagine him tackling.  |

You put the best at a position, regardless of what that player's "normal" position is. The last 5-star RB we got out of Florida has had a so-so at best career here, so to blow off the possibility of Bell getting a shot at RB just because Berry is coming here is flat out wrong.

Switching to DB got Gamble to the NFL. Back to Dorian, congrats on the selection to the Army game. It's always good when they have no choice but to praise the newest Buckeyes. | |
