Achane has set the NFL record for highest yards per carry in a season since the NFL/AFL merger with 7.8 YPC. Absolutely insane the season he had, so unbelievable. Gig 'em Achane!

Perfect example of why Jimbo needed to go
Just makes me more upset that Jimbo only gave him 12 carries against Ole Miss in 2021. It was obvious he was the hot hand that game. Still think we win that game if Achane was more involved.
2021 vs Ole Miss
Achane 12 carries 110 yards 2 TDs
Spiller 15 carries 41 yards
2021 vs Ole Miss
Achane 12 carries 110 yards 2 TDs
Spiller 15 carries 41 yards
Worst part was Achane did not touch the ball in the 4th quarter even once when he single handedly brought us back in the game in the 3rd quarter. Out of all the frustrating moments in Fisher's tenure. That made me more angry than ever.Onionman said:

Agreed.

Don't normally dwell on the past and decisions, but have to agree on this one. Total misuse of talent that done differently could have had a significant measurable impact. Sucks and is sad.
"A-Chan" is good.
So question on that...Barnacle said:

Did Aggies across the board pronounce it wrong for 3 years and he just never corrected anyone?
or did he decide recently that it's pronounced A-Chan? I've never come across a kid that wouldn't immediately correct you if you say their name wrong.

He runs hard and fast through many holes
Did he literally run through #81 who was blocking for him? Imagine being so fast the laws of physics don't apply to you.
I'm not, the Texans are fun this year. Love our new coach.NoahAg said:Why wish that evil on him?annie88 said:Wish the Texans had taken him.The Marksman said:

You must be a Cowboys fan.
De’Von Achane is the FIRST RB in NFL HISTORY to average 7.5+ YPC on 100+ carries.

(103/800/8; 7.7 YPC)
No other RB has even topped 6.5+ YPC on 100+ carries before.
Truly an ELECTRIC talent.

**** you Jimbo.......
Hard to believe we had this guy and still lost to App State.
So glad we are moving on from Jimbo.

What stuck out most about that run was the way he occupied the same space as 81 for a split second. How is that possible? It looks like he morphs through 81 before the ankle-breaking cut against the corner.P.H. Dexippus said:

People think I'm an idiot or something, because all I do is cut lawns for a living.

Almost. Don't forget William Beattie "Big Chief" Feathers.
Quote:
How long has it been since a running back averaged more yards per carry while running the ball 100 times? The last time it happened was in 1934, when Bears rookie Beattie Feathers averaged 8.4 yards per carry, running 119 times for 1,004 yards.

800 rushing yards as a rookie. Not too shabby!
How many jet-sweeps or smoke screens did Jimbo run for Achane? He ran him in between the tackles most of the time like he was Jorvorskie Lane. Dumb
It's funny all of you giving Jumbo grief. But at least he recruited him.
He was drafted in the 3rd rounds so several NFL coaches and GMs passed on him.

"I don't manage the player rotation. I let my position coaches do that".
Yep but we know recruiting didn't seem to be Jimbo's problem. He got talent to come to A&M. He just didn't know how to optimize it.LB12Diamond said:

Yep. Even when Achane was carving up opponents Jimbo would swap in Spiller in critical moments. It was unreal to witness.

A lot of coaches in CFB want their "system" to win the game, when in actuality, the players win games…
I could see early on Achane (off the chain) was a bigger threat than Spiller… Jimbo just couldn't let him upstage his offense scheme…

Achane was breaking ankles like that in his HS highlights ... crazy he is doing the same in the NFL

I don't know about the upstage part, but Fisher 100% thought the game was about him.
Proof:
-Not caring about which players were in the game.
- Micro managing QBs and demolishing their confidence
Said it before and I'll say it again. It's as if Jimbo wanted to lose and run the program into the ground.Gyles Marrett said:Worst part was Achane did not touch the ball in the 4th quarter even once when he single handedly brought us back in the game in the 3rd quarter.
