Classic Tailback - Ki-Jana Carter Penn State Highlights

  • A compilation of some of Ki-Jana Carter's highlights at Penn State University. Probably the best tailback Penn State had under Paterno, which is saying something when other names include Curt Warner, Franco Harris, Blair Thomas, Larry Johnson, and Lydell Mitchel. If not for a devastating knee injury, Ki-Jana Carter most likely would've become a generational talent at running back in the pros.
    The games I used to take the clips from can be found on Stephen Barnett's youtube channel (and there were a few other channels I used as well that you can find if you look around): / sbbarnet. .

      I don't know why he didn't go to Ohio State? He hurt his knee in his first NFL GAME. Too bad because the Bengals needed him. I believe that it changed his personality because I used to see him and he didn't seem like a friendly person figured that it was because of what he went through to get back into shape. There's some good running backs that made comebacks but they didn't have the same form.

    I do beleive that if it wasnt for the injury in the preseason of his rookie year we could very well be talking about KJ as one of the all timers. Ron Wolf is considered one of the best talent evaluating GMs in football said he had combarable physical gifts to Bo jackson. before you scoff Ron Wolf wasnt one for hype. and KJ was 220 pounds but looked like a 190 pound back because of his agility and speed. . We all wacthed his speed but he had SO much power. He was not in an option or spread offense but he averaged 7.8 yards a carry as a senior !! Was SO MUCH FUN watching him play !!!!!!!! Thank you for this one !!!!!

    • @PockyCandy
      @PockyCandy  Před 7 lety +4

      Oh yeah, he looked like a superstar in the makings. However, he was surrounded by an all-star team in college, so there's that part that has to be considered too.

      @@PockyCandy Yeah, but the year before that, they struggled for most of the season and he had over 1,100 yards, missing 4 games and Kerry Collins(#12) didn't establish himself as the QB.
      Kerry was the big question mark then because of that coming into the season. When KC took over the team, they went to the next level offensively. But Ki Jana had the skill set to succeed at the NFL level.
      Getting a ACL injury in the 90s was career threatening especially for an RB. He was a speed/power guy. He was 225 lbs running a 4.3 in the 40. That's unique especially in the 90s. Once he lost his speed, he was done. It's a shame. I'll admit as a PSU fan, Saquan Barkley is the best PSU running back in my lifetime as a fan(been a fan since 1985) but #32 is #2 and PSU has had many good/great college RBs in their history.

      Both me and my Dad are Bengals Fans. We were upset when he got hurt in Preseason. He didn't do what he was projected to do in the NFL. Check out NFL Films about Greg Cook Quarterback who could have been the Greatest ever. I thought KJC was the answer at Running Back finally. Sometimes a Friek injury can change History.

I love PC because he will give u all the carries from one game so u can see how he really played. I hate the ultimate highlight tapes as they only give u someone’s best plays.

      He was a glider who made it look effortless. The key with him was his 75%-80% "gliding speed" was just faster than everyone else's, and he could make these quick 30 deg - 45 deg changes of direction effortlessly and just "slalom" past people. He had legit 4.3 speed running straight ahead, for the rare instance when that sort of thing actually comes into play on the football field.
      He was 1st Team All-American and the 1st overall pick in the nfl draft, FWIW.
