[Husker] Marlon Lucky

[richards todd]

Skylar,

I don't know if Lucky is an above average back or just
average.  I do see him missing opportunities to make a
second or third cut.  

Against Ball State I saw a few carries where he ran
straight ahead into defenders when he had a blocker
positioned and engaged, and all he had to do was make
a 30 degree shift to the right, (usually to the right)
and it was clear sailing.

What does that mean?  I haven't a clue. Just an
observation.
