Comparing a walk-on running back who rushed for 34 yards per game as a senior in high school to Darrin Nelson is a new one for me. This is like when I used to play whiffle ball and say I was Matt Williams or half court basketball on a six foot hoop and say I was Shawn Kemp.
Neither of your hypotheses on Buckey are close to Occam's Razor. It's almost certainly not a typo or something Kolodziej and Deatrick want. Buckey was a nobody recruit who in his first two years in the program totaled zero tackles and 21 snaps (6 outside of emptying the bench against the #223 team in the nation in Colgate) despite playing in a room with no seniority and little competition. I had hoped given the Stanford football dad bloodlines it could be a happy story like Drew Dalman or to a lesser extent Tucker Fisk, but my optimism is quickly dissipating.
