I understand what you are saying.. and that very well is a possibilty..

But IMHO, I don't think hes the player Doug Howard was, and I'm not sure he will develope to be... Not saying that it won't, or couldn't.. just that at this point, and the rate hes going..

I don't understand how Doug never got the chance to play at D1 school... I thought for sure he would get some offers... And thats what makes me think about this situation... If Howard didn't get the offers, I don't see May getting them either..

I hope noone takes this wrong way but,

Doug had three things against him..
1) Most Importantly His Height and Weight
2) His Position
3) His Race

Doug got some looks as a safety, but ultimately his position was going to have to be running back. Unless the kid is a genetic freak or just an absolute monster (IE Fullback or a back similar to Leonard from Rutgers) Caucasion halfbacks are rarely recruited.
For my mone Doug is the best football player to ever come from Belfry and was considerably a better RB than Jones... but he didn't have the size and speed to pass the D-1 screening process. (Which is a shame because if that kid had the opportunity somehwere he would still be playing football and would be contributing somewhere)
