Swervin Curvin was highly sought after. But, I don’t remember his ‘rating.’ If he hadn’t gotten hurt, and also take care of his sister (I believe she had cancer), he would have broken Tony Dorsett’s records. As it was, I think he is second behind Dorsett at Pitt.
The Freshman looks like Curvin when he was a Senior. But, he also carries people along for the ride like Kendrick Perkins. Kind of a blend.
When did the star-rating system begin? In the late eighties, LaPorte had Curvin Richards. If there were five-star ratings in the eighties, he was a five-star. If the freshman RB at LaPorte is the next Curvin Richards, watch out...LaPorte will win a lot of games. This year's team has an OL that mauls people. The stable of backs pick a lane and run north/south. As long as the OL does its thing, LaPorte will be a tough out. They will hold on to the football, squeeze the number of possessions, and beat you up.
