RBs next year . . .

Let's go back to the Wishbone and Daryl Royal days.

Wing T with a running QB

Never mind.

I'd have loved to see a pitch back old style with a full back leading the way to the outside. Auburn wouldn't have known what to do.

I'd love to see a few toss sweeps with the RB group we have now.

All kidding aside Im really not that worried about the offensive side of thing for next year , I am a little concerned about the defensive aspect of it though.

I wonder which running backs we have committed for the upcoming recruiting class. I know the main one we wanted committed to UGA. We need to pick up a good RB this cycle like we did Najee this year.

If you visit the recruiting board you`ll see that we currently have no highly rated, pure RB publically committed. IMO, unless Harris and Scarbrough declare for the draft, I don`t see us getting one either. Just too much depth for most 4-5*, hot shot RBs, again IMO. As with many things, one of those opinions concerning which you`d love to be proven wrong. I think Najee`s commitment last year was an exception and a gift from God!

As I said in another thread, Harris should be getting 15-20 carries a game. Scarbrough should be getting 10-15 carries a game. Jacobs should get the ball 5-10 times a game, either at RB or as a slot receiver. Obviously, if one of these guys gets "hot" then you feed him the ball and the others get less carries. We've really underutilized these guys. I think Damien and Bo will both go pro if the projections are good.

We'll have a lot of talent next year with Najee, Jacobs, and Robinson, but not a lot of depth. That's what scares me, not any lack of talent.

It's a crime that D. Harris hasn't averaged 15 carries a game this year.

It's a crime that D. Harris hasn't averaged 15 carries a game this year.

He would have gained 1250-1500 yds
