Who's the #1 JUCO RB this year? We need him. And then we need to sign a Top 10 stud from the HS ranks.

If we got the #1 JUCO RB, would we then redshirt him and play a converted WR at RB?

I'm not saying Rankin would've made the difference today but our tackles are terrible. Dak deserved better his senior year.

Ha! Well said. I thought about Rankin as I typed that. Mullen at his finest. No JUCO will ever be better than his farm raised players.

Nine sacks while standing in a pocket. I wonder if Dan thought of moving the pocket giving Dak the option to haul ***.

We also have 2 freshman RBs that are pretty damn good, too.
But Leonard Effing Fournette couldn't run behind our OL.

Our RB situation is a mess. Next year we're going to have 6 RBs (Shumpert, Holloway, Williams, Lee, Gibson, and Murphey) on scholarship with eligibility ticking, assuming no one transfers, with in roads on the two best backs on the state for the 2017 class.

I don't think we get Akers, but I'm convinced we land hill

I was told we are the team to beat for Akers from someone close to that situation.

Long way to go obviously.

YELLING: WHEN THE OL CAN'T BLOCK, IT DOES NOT MATTER

I'm over the conversation about running back. It does not matter. We could have Walter Payton and Eric Dickerson in the backfield and they'd get nothing. Our o-line is a dumpster fire.
