WILL YOU BE A GOOD RUNNINGBACK IF YOU WERE "5'8 AND 200LB?

Question

cuz i want to see if i can try out for that position!!

Answer 1

if u can run fast

Answer 2

ya if it was all muscle

Answer 3

yeah only if you have speed you would be or maybe a safyet or corner

Answer 4

1 - caps lock is pointless, immature, and annoying

2 - nobody can tell you if you have a chance at being a good running back just because you list your height and weight

I'm 6'1 195lbs

would I be a good hang glider?

I have to wear contacts/glasses

can I type fast?

my guess:

you have the potential to be the greatest running back to ever come out of your area

or.....maybe not

either way

Answer 5

Size wise I don't think its a problem. 200 is a strong weight for that height. I would be more likely to ask about your 40 speed. And your cone drills.  

Answer 6

Sure if you can run fast, break tackles, not fumble, block, and learn a playbook.

Size is probably the least of your worries.

Answer 7

Being a good running back is more then height and weight.

1. What's your 40 speed?

2. How is your agility?

3. How are your football instincts?

4. Is it 200lbs of fat or muscle?

Our DT in high school was 6'6" and over 300lbs but he was a fat lazy pig with no drive and no work ethic so he wasnt as good as if he had good work ethic and had more muscle mass. My point is that it's more then size it's ability and dedication that makes your a great player.

Answer 8

Absolutely.  Some of the best RB where shorter than the normal RB's.  Barry Sanders, Tony Dorset.  If you are fast and can cut good, the over sized linemen can't get you.  Plus, it is harder for the linebackers to pick you up over the front line.  Good Luck

Answer 9

Of course, I mean look the the RB's in the NFL w/ the same size as you ex. Maurice Jones-Drew and Brian Westbrook. Just work hard and then you can be great like these guys.  

Answer 10

I would be going to USC!!!!

USC brings hope to all players!!!!!!!
