Message: [QUOTE="CbusCuse, post: 5467187, member: 507"] I have high hopes for Willis as well but he really only had two good games back to back against holy cross and UNLV. Other than that he was not great. He did also have 3 carries for 20 yards against the Miami. But it’s a small sample size. He was just a freshman so maybe he wasn’t quite comfortable yet and his head was spinning. I think Nixon was a bit better than serviceable. He looked pretty good. If he is healthy, I honestly expect him to get about as much action as Willis. He is certainly the more well rounded back as he was a good receiver as well. Not quite Lequint but still solid. I do think the RB group this year will definitely be a step down from Lequint. Really think we need to recruit a bit better there but maybe it was a bit hard just because we passed it so well and threw the ball all over. But Nixon was a RB coach in the NFL so you would think that would help a bit. [/QUOTE]
