RB thoughts

[kcsu]

Enigma for sure. Morris seemed like the next coming as a youngster but has really fallen off. Could be coaching or Georges O who knows but he has not progressed. McFarlane show promise. Seems to like to run between the tackles and has that burst. 6 yards a carry says something so we shall see. Phillips just seems to have it. He needs strength and if he put on the muscle in the off season i would expect good things out of him regardless of how he is listed on the roster. Ash has the size of a power back but doesnt play like one. Likes to dance and seems to hate just putting his head down. Still have hopes that he finds his way regardless of the position as the kid has a ton of natural talent. Off the newbies i like them all. I know that Strickland is the odds on favorite to see time as the kid is a stud but i cant help but look at JF and see a great back same with the perkins but i think he takes a year off to make sure he mends. My bet is on McFarlane having a good year, Phillips getting a fair share of carries and if a frosh steps up JF.

Phillips getting a fair share of carries .

Jet sweeps only.

 

[Trueblue25]

McFarlane will have an 1100 yard season mark my words.

I like Run DMC a lot. Morris confuses me, but potential is there. Strickland we probably need something from. I'll believe Phillips as a ball carrier when it's a consistent thing.

This is a group that I feel like I should be really high on, but I'm kind of meh.

I want to believe.

This unit will go as far as the offensive line allows it to go.

 

[xc84]

I still have faith in Morris.

 

[Shenexon]

This unit will go as far as the offensive line allows it to go.

I'm really hoping all of the running backs will be potent following a respectable line and with a passing game that keeps the defense off the line of scrimmage. It seems we have coaches that have the trust of the players and can keep them believing in themselves. A little early success could sure help their confidence as well.

This is the key. Without it?

 

[MSOrange]

I do too. Last year was obviously a mess for him. I think something got in his head and just put him on the wrong path - I really have no idea. But I liked the bursts showed two years ago enough that I'm not totally giving up on him.

 

[hoopsupstate]

I have no confidence in either of these two. After watching Morris and his alligators arms going after a short pass for a potential TD against Wake Forest, he shows little toughness. Our best backs are a couple of our freshman running backs. There's a reason that Morris hasn't been able to get on the field. We couldn't score from anywhere on the field last year and if these guys couldn't get on the field last year, they never will. I think we had one rushing TD after Hunt was injured. I understand the oline was banged up, but one rushing TD is pretty pathetic.
