Richard Kelly Appreciation Thread

[Bull^Shark]

He is from South Sumter... 'nuff said..

That game wore me out. Good night.

I've said all along, the biggest mistake we made last year was not running Kelly.

The biggest mistake we made last night was not running Kelly enough. LOL

Hopefully, USF will wake up and give Kelly the ball MORE against Kansas.

I like more running backs like Kelly and Ford.  I realize you can't have a whole team of them but I am biased in that way.  I think Ford gives you power and speed which I don't know why you wouldn't want that.

Mama got me on the R.Kelly bandwagon last year, and i'm still on it this year.

i'm thoroughly disappointed in our goal line playcalling.  we have a sledgehammer like Kelly and we don't run him on goal line situations.

ridiculous.

with as many quality, diverse backs as we have, we need to be running 2/3 back sets at least once every series.

We only like to bust that out on goal line passing plays.

[TRUTH D. Antagonist]

apparently our coaching staff doesn't understand the concept that pounding the ball with bruisers like Kelly [and Ford] wears out the defense and opens up the finesse game [both passing AND running].

the run game is not just about yardage on a given play.  it's also about punishing the linebackers.

i hate Greg Gregory with a passion.  he opens the playbook against **** teams, then reverts to the bogus bush league vanilla zone read offense when we should be pounding it.

Where was he on the 3 and out we had when UCF cut the lead to 24-17? They didnt have the confidence in him at that point, but they used him in overtime?!

Ridiculous...

R Kelly is having a great season thus far too.. but I can't help but think of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiKAdyixU3U whenever I hear his name.

1st-10, SFla24 5:44  R. Kelly rushed up the middle for 6 yard gain

1st-10, SFla18 2:40  R. Kelly rushed up the middle for 2 yard loss

Well, 9 carries is about 8 more than he's ever had in a game, so you're assuming he would have been up for it. Plus lining up Kelly deep is like flashing a bright neon sign that says "WE'RE GIVING KELLY THE BALL" with an arrow pointing to him.

Hopefully, USF will wake up and give Kelly the ball MORE against Kansas.

God, make up your mind people, do you want Ford to get 25 carries or Kelly? You can't have both.
