Dontae Williams could be the top back next year... why wouldn't he at least factor into quality depth? STOMP
Nice list of RB's. Old timers like me take it back a little more. Tony Cherry, Derek Loville, Ricky Whittle, Saladin McCullough. SalMc was one heck of an exciting RB. I don't want to take anything away from LMJ, because he's just an elite stud, but I think several RB's on that list would have been Heisman finalists under the current system and with our outstanding OL, blocking WR's and a dual threat QB.
Our depth: Kenjon Barner So. RS 5-11/180 Lache Seastrunk Fr. 5-9/188 Dontae Williams Fr. 5-11/207 HUFF Verbal Recruit Tra Carson RB Texarkana, TX Liberty-Eylau 6'1" 218 4.6 3 stars
your recent evaluating the redshirt freshman thread would seem to indicate this is a real possibility STOMP
lol this is true. I just didnt imagine him jumping Barner that fast I guess. But the overall leaving him out was a slip up on my part
I thought about putting McCullough on the list, I have his jersey hanging in my closet, but mostly I was just rattling off guys who were on the team in the last ten years or so and went on to have NFL careers, if just a brief one.
I gotta chime in with the "I hope he leaves" perspective... it still strikes me as crazy. Not because he should not go. He needs to do whatever's best for himself. Not because we don't have good RBs on the team and in the pipeline. We have depth and some potential studs. I hope he doesn't leave because competition is good. James would either be better than the other backs (and the team is better for it) or he'd be beaten out by superior RBs (at least for some share of the carries). We KNOW James is a very good back and he would put up excellent numbers again next year... why give up the sure thing on purpose? Ed O.
