The running game

[Memnon]

It worked out with Martinez and fletcher

Lofton is not as good of a natural runner as Martinez.

Martinez is RUNNINGBACK

Lofton is a TE, that can maybe get a handful of carries in certain situations.

We wouldn't even have to consider putting a TE at RB if we just went ahead & brought in another RB... Crazy idea I know.

really a shame milroe is going pro, him, Lyle, Fletcher, lofton, and our OL would have been killer next season

Tried and true through the years-

Run the football-

Play great defense-

It's hard to recruit a Portal RB without promising carries. We were able to stack the room last year because Lyle was a true freshman and Fletcher was hurt.

You probably lose Lyle or Fletcher to the Portal if you bring in an expensive back. It could be an upgrade but you still end up with the same depth problem (and less money).

Big , physical teams with athletes for me . Trenches will always be the one consistent.

Exactly. It all starts there. We had half of that w this team. We need dominant dt’s in a bad way. And maybe some ends that know how to set the edge

They have enough with fletcher, Lyle, and pringle

 

[IamaCane4Life]

Miami would have been a better team to watch than half or more of these cfp teams. Gotta get in next time

Maybe, hut our D was horrible!

 

[BS85]

All the more reason to add another top tier RB...

Can #25 help us next year?

Won’t play much as the 4th guy

 

[BS85]

I still don’t understand how the staff didn’t address the glaring issues in the secondary. I don’t care who they whiffed on. As Ross says, Pivot.

Truly gross negligence

Bro - I was at the closed scrimmage. Lofton looked amazing at RB. Although after seeing our D this year I'm not sure. He was patient and read his blocks well - and also had great contact balance. He looked like the real deal to me.

Yall say that now...

Going into the season with just 4 RB's, with one of them likely not even being P4 caliber is unwise.

Our QB play will be significantly down next year & we'll have no choice but to run the ball a lot more. Defenses are going to see on film that they won't have to respect/fear the Passing game in the same way they did with Cam at the helm. You're chancing/risking a disastrous scenario trying to put it all on 2-backs & an unproven TF with an increased workload.

Not to mention, we're losing 3 TE's all who could block very well & a Bookend LT in Rivers.

You're Dancing with the Devil with this 3 RB idea...

But whatevs, yall have been warned

Only a few years that isn’t the case.

Spring/Camp scrimmages are a completely different Solar System from REAL games.

Still time to get Rivers and Martinez without possing off the youngsters too much.

Just need a QB, WRs…

They are bringing in 2 TEs for visits. And lofton is the emergency 5th back. There isn’t an elite rb in the portal and will be hard to get a guy worth anything knowing fletcher and Lyle are likely going to be the top 2. I mean Chaney is back in the portal maybe they can bring him back for depth
