Perface by saying JJ was/is in my top 3 players I want to ink.  He still might sign, and I’m not saying he’s not a potential loss, just that I’m not worried about the position.

I love Dixon’s power and where he plays, but his film doesn’t do anything for me and I dont know if he translates that well to the ACC.  Personally I don’t like these big slow backs, I like short stout jitterbugs with burst and wiggle or the explosiveness of the Neal/JJ types.  The Joe-El / Dixon types meh.  I liked senior year Jerome Smith but I’d prefer Ray Rice, Brinkley, Mungro, even Ant Bailey.  etc.

Why I’m not worried, We return all of our backs and Neal was just starting to come into his own.  He’ll be a true junior and another year stronger.  Markenzie Pierre will get a spring under his belt.  Anyone writing him off is nuts.  Then the fact that RB is the easiest position to recruit and to recruit a kid that can come in and play day1.  Everyone returns and another month to see what shakes loose.

*I also think Lutz could be an outstanding back in this system if we need to give another kid a look.  I just don’t think things are dire here.  Would rather have not lost Charlton.
