PFF with a little Tribute to Haskins Hurdles

Submitted by Eskimoan on December 3rd, 2021 at 3:06 PM

PFF Twitter posted a great vid on Hassan Haskins Hurdling Fools for the season. Not 100% if it is all of them, but I love everyone I see on here!

Aww man, they only did the 2021 hurdles (missed the MSU one that didn't really gain any extra yards)?

There's like another 3 they could clip from 2019-2020.

Nebraska was my favorite because the color commentary was genuinely "holy shit" and it was in the open field AND he kept running after it for like another 25 yards which almost never happens.

The OSU hurdle felt the best at the time, but the Nebraska hurtle was amazing. It's so rare to see a guy hurdle, keep his feet, and still get good yardage afterwards.

i wonder if there is an added benefit to the hurdling... defenders gotta know it is in his toolbox and *should* be ready so as not to get posterized (twitterized?). so then they are less likely to go low which then allows haskins to win the low ground when he wants, making it easier to drive forward after contact

I can't ever say that I will miss one of our RBs when he leaves, until now. Usually am looking forward to the incoming player, like Edwards, which I am.  But this is different. 

Hart has done great making these guys better but has monster shoes to fill on the identification side like Jay has.  Jay is responsible for Charbonnet, Haskins, Corum, Edwards, Dunlap.    Hart so far has Stokes.

Yeah Nebraska's is just so cool. It gains him all that yardage and he gets up so high. Still running away after he lands. Perfection.

But I cheered more for the hurdle last week...

My favorite is the OSU one because the Buckeyes are scum, but also because of the strong element of tea-bagging. Just gloriously disrespectful. Denard is always gonna be my favorite, but damn do I love watching HH bully fools.

HH is incredible. There was a salty comment in the Twitter about he doesn't gain enough yardage and to hit the guy like big boy. Must be a OSU fan. I am like did this person watch the highlights and how many yards he gains after the hurdle? And the person must not have seen him run much and his yard after contact. Incredible runner.

Does anybody have a compilation with all seven H2 hurdles? My kids and I have had fun watching these together, and I would love to show all seven together. A quick search of the googles and YouTube could only find these smaller compilations. Also, how amazing is it that every single hurdle has been successful? Fools are closing their eyes and bracing for the train crash only to get a big fist full of air.
