Idk if he can win the two starting RB spots that rotate every series… but I hope he really attacks special teams I think the PR/KR positions are wide open and RayRay hasn’t done anything to lock it down
 
I know it's not common, but why can't he practice with both squads?? As 3/4th in line at RB, he won't get a ton of reps, so why not hybrid train him... get him up to speed with CB, and when he needs to pop in at RB, do so.....

CWH can't win our RB2 job either, so idk why those two things are being mentioned.

Just trying to save everyone some time and energy. Go play corner and embrace it. Better chance at money and playing time.

While I agree his upside is somewhat limited at RB due to his lack of explosiveness he probably has a better shot at RB THIS SEASON then he would at cb or safety(fs being where I think his best shot long term is) his problem is he doesn't have the explosiveness for cb or RB & as of now he doesn't have the physicality or the top end speed for free. He's a prototypical tweener as of right now. But what he's got in spades is a competitive drive and he's a flat out ball player. Reminds me of DJ Dallas or Henry parrish in that sense

I felt that way from the time he committed.

You can’t let him at least develop first lmfao. Just because he didn’t rush for 1,000 yards his freshman year doesn’t mean he isn’t good. He wasn’t getting meaningful reps when you have Martinez and Fletcher as your two lead backs lol

If he develops, that'll be great and I'll admit I was wrong. But I don't think he's got it. I feel the same way about Juan Minaya, Judd Anderson and Jackson Carver

Hooping that more runs will be to the edges and not the majority of the focus on running between the A Gap. Lets see some tosses and counters

To be fair the screens/bubbles serve that purpose as well in this offense. Inside zone/duo/power is usually a numbers in the box decision.

Agreed but as long as Dawson/Mirabal are here we're going right up the middle on 95% of our running plays. Eventually teams are going to zero in on that and our lack of options in the running game is going to hurt us. Every year they talk about self scouting yet our running game is basically inside zone/duo runs right up the A gap. I know it's been efficient and effective to this point but eventually it will hurt us. I've never seen any other team in college limit their rushing attack to being exclusively A gap.
