He still needs to stop slinging the ball around.

[Vantage 8 dude]

He still needs to stop slinging the ball around.

Uhh........no one said the young man was perfect. Yes he does need to work on ball security; however, I still wouldn't trade either he or AC or any of the others mentioned in the article. Not one!!

[bigdaddyhawg]

That's an exaggeration, don't you think?

[Deep Shoat]

"Hey dad, I got an A on my math test."

"Shut up boy, you still haven't remodeled the basement."

[Hawgzinbowlz]

I'll take JWill.

" GO HOGS "

+1

[bigdaddyhawg]

During most of the last two seasons I've gone back and forth from believing JWill is definitely our best back, to believing AC is definitely our best back!!

Nice problem to have, huh?

In the "Music City Bowl" season, didn't we go completely through the regular season without a lost fumble by our RBs? If that goofy staff can coach that, surely present staff can.

[MultipleScoreGasms]

We just hired a RB coach who is known for his emphasis on ball security.

[Piggage]

We just hired a RB coach who is known for his emphasis on ball security.

And with proven success.

[BigPapaHawg]

Would not trade him for anyone out there!!!!

And that's a good thing.

[devildoghawg]

Chubb.

[hawginbigd1]

Chubb.

Jwill  > than all IMO! He will leave some huge shoes to fill next year.

[Iwastherein1969]

Williams is not the most talented RB we've had, probably not even in the top 10 (because ARK has had some great, great toters of the ball). However, as far as determination and competitiveness goes, no one who has ever played the position at the UA has ever given more effort. Huge props to #32

ad: as far as the SEC goes, Chubb, being a frosh has more upside, however the sheer size of Williams will get him a job in the NFL....if, if he can catch the ball out of the backfield

[arlhog]

I love J.W.  but truth be known, I'd say he's probably third.  That's nothing to be ashamed of in this conference at all though.   But I'd have a real hard time putting him above Chubb or Henry.   We might have the best pair of backs though.   

[alohawg]

Hope he proves them right and then some.

[Swine-as-wine]

Best in the SEC? He's not the best on the team. Collins by a landslide, is
a much better running back.

Collins better?  Perhaps.

By a landslide?  No way in the world.

I know this because I can see with my eyes the strengths each player has, AND, possibly more importantly, CBB/staff sees it as well because they get pretty balanced carries.

CBB has shown in the past he has no problems feeding ONE stud 35-40 carries a game, and he would do it here if AC were that much better than JWill.

[micali]

Chubb.

This

Um...no.

I will give you Chubb, that man is a beast! Size and speed! However what in the H@LL has Henry ever accomplished? One good game? If he was so good then we would have seen it consistently by now. Williams is much better than Henry, but Chubb is going to be one of the all time special ones.

[lefty08]

I'd take Williams over Collins every day of the week, but Collins is a good back and we need both

Henry was the best RB on a NC finals team from a year ago.

He has been hurt, but, MAN, you'd have to be looking away pretty hard not to see his talent.

[yraciv]

Melvin Gordon led the nation in fumbles for a RB, and he is still the perceived best RB in the draft. Everyone has things they can work on.

But did he "sling the ball around"?

That's much worse than just fumbling the ball, don't you know?

[jrhardy88]

Nick Chubb is ridiculous,comes in for Gurley and is better.Love our backs but Chubb is a monster.

Hey, smartass, you realize that when a player decides to hold the ball away from his body, the chances of fumbling are much greater, right?

[010HogFan]

Never have understood the Derrick Henry hype. He's just a bigger, and maybe even slower, version of Broderick Green.

You were right half the time.  I'll leave it at that......

[Tusks]

Is that like tossing the ball to the D when running in the open field.

[CDBHawg]

Henry has more yards in two years than Green had his entire career.

Not to mention his 6ypc.

[bondhue]

"Hey, everyone on Hogville gets $100."

Argument ensues.

[hawginbigd1]

Nick Chubb is ridiculous,comes in for Gurley and is better.Love our backs but Chubb is a monster.

Chubb is going to be a good or maybe great SEC RB, but he was running behind one of if not the best OL in the country from 1 through 5.

not correct. Henry's team hot knocked out before the final.

[mizzouman]

Chubb, Fornette, then all the rest

[longpig]

Wouldn't trade J Will for any of the others, that being said I rank him 4th to 6th in the conference.

[longpig]

Hey, smartass, you realize that when a player decides to hold the ball away from his body, the chances of fumbling are much greater, right?

lol. My girlfriend even noticed he slings the ball around.

[Jackrabbit Hog]

It's always heartwarming when the imbeciles are allowed to use computers.

[Prestworthy]

Chubb.

Chubb is the best.  He will be an unbelievable RB at UGA and will eventually got to NYC for a heisman ceremony.

[Iwastherein1969]

Chubb, Fornette, then all the rest

Fornette has not done enough to be placed ahead of Williams nor Collins...you are merely going on reputation, still blindly staring at those stars on his Rivals page in his high school evaluation.

[Biggus Piggus]

Chubb. Seven yards a carry, topped 200 a couple of times. When he starts a full season he might hit 2,000.

[PaintballHog]

Chubb.

Love Jwill and AC, but Chubb isn't even human.

[WorfHog]

Love Jwill and AC, but Chubb isn't even human.

If that's true it raises disturbing questions about his eligibility.

[bigdaddyhawg]

I'm going to plead "Senior Moment" on that. 

[bigdaddyhawg]

Yes, I was being a smartazz there, but you were guilty of negative exaggeration to smear a current UA football player.

Whose crime is worse?

[The real Hogules]

I love Williams too and I'm glad that he's a Hog, but I'd take Chubb, or the TB from LSU whose name escapes me ATM over J. Will.

[gawntrail]

Barring injury, JWill is the top back in the 2016 draft.  Probably best in SEC and should be in running for Heisman.

Wow that's some wishful thinking!
