Not as big, not as much arm talent, not as good a runner.
You're watching Barnett on a winning team with a healthy culture, against lesser competition.
Nico played in a dysfunctional offense that could not protect him, against much better competition. I wouldn't mind seeing Barnett come, but if he's our starter we will struggle on offense.
Based on Chesney's style of play I'd say Luke Duncan has no future at UCLA. Madden may not, either. But Nico could really take off under Chesney.
It's very good that Chesney also brought in a QB he knows and likes in DJ Bordeaux.
