Moa was good as a 3rd down back taking a handoff on 3rd and 10.

Belboz Intervention Needed

As I sat in the stadium and watched him bounce through defenders on his way to a spectacular TD run, I wondered how angry it made certain CBers that BYU ran the ball on 3rd and 10.
Why settle for a field goal attempt???

With the emergence of Moa and Ropati returning, I'm hoping that Davis still gets

I like Davis, but he can’t break tackles.

he's riley burt 2.0 - he can run fast in a straight line and nothing else.

or ankles.

Give the reps to Haunga. He was a WR in high school too.

He’s gonna get redshirted. Would be surprised to see him the rest of the year

I have a feeling with Ropati back and Martin possibly coming back for Arizona

How is Davis a decoy? You are basically telling the defense that we cannot run

I'm looking at it like 3rd & medium to 3rd and long. Maybe the defense protects

BYUfannonLDS

yeah, I guess if I am a defensive coordinator and it is third and long and Miles

Maybe not but maybe that's the situation where if the D doesn't adjust

I think we'd all like to see more of him — but he's gotta earn it in practice. Haunga's the difference-maker

LJ and Moa mostly. Sprinkling in Ropati, Haunga, and Davis as needed.

You are forgetting Enoch Nawahine. Here's my list:

As an every-down back, probably. But Davis's speed does give him an edge possibly as a 3rd-down specialist.

Davis basically didn't return after missing a blocking assignment against KSU.

rcbyufan

10:20am

Missed that. That could be. Blocking is definitely big in the pecking order right now.

SinkingQuffa

I've seen enough of Davis. I want Sione I Moa and Haunga. I like them both

Hawk Talons

10:12am

Same. Our run game suffered with Davis and Ropati, even against bad teams.

Based on what I've seen, Davis probably dropped to #5 on the depth chart.

Thrill

10:13am

I put him at #6

Hawk Talons

10:16am

I think he should play occasionally. His run against SMU won us the game.

Dangerous

That was more about blocking and the QB, although Davis is very fast.

Belboz

10:29am

Yep. And nobody should forget that. Great kid. Does it the right way

rcbyufan

10:34am

WR or special teams would be best for him

Moa was good as a 3rd down back taking a handoff on 3rd and 10.

The depth chart should be as follows:

I wanted Davis to materialize, but I think it’s clear he ain’t the guy
