he was also in the Chiz's dog house .... deeply .... he was also banged up alot .... i just think well see all three contributing in their own special ways ....
Gonna run wishbone next year. Too many good running backs, and the wind blows too hard at JTS to throw the ball...
If our line can't block, it won't matter who the running back is. We get that figured out, any of the 3 will be a 1,000+ yard rusher. I lean towards Bo as the every down back, but A-Rob is going to get his carries.
Was Bo the feature back in the spring game?

Agreed. Probably wasn't a great example on my part. I still say though that he will be a 3rd or 4th option for us next year.
1. The season isn't over yet. Alexander can certainly still run for over 700.
2. I said that who starts isn't my biggest concern. Especially before even Spring ball rolls around, when the vast majority of us haven't even seen any of the candidates but one. So it's pretty pointless arguing about it.
3. I'm far more concerned about how the offensive line, the vast majority of the reason he haven't had offensive success, performs. A good offensive line, and everything else tends to fall into place.
So if A) Mike Knapp stays healthy, and B) youngsters like Haighton, Hicks, Osemele and Baysinger step up, this could be a very good line. And right now, that's my biggest concern. On offense.
It's Tiller, not Tillman. And part of the reason we haven't had a 700 yard rusher in 5 years is because of our offensive line. They have not been good at all this year. If we can shore that up, watch out.
It's a mix of poor o line play, poor RB play, and injuries. But we have yet to see anything out of Arob on a consistent basis to not be worried about the running game next year
I never said anything about A-Rob, but if he would have had a better line this year, it would have made him look a lot better than he has looked. Its not his fault he gets hit right after he gets the handoff. I'm not saying he doesn't have things to work on, because he does, but the offensive line goes a long way in wether a runningback is good.
I wouldn't be surprised to see one of the freshmen get alot of touches. We need a change of pace back, like Blankenship or White.
IMO Schwartz is going to be a huge fan favorite and has the most potential. Bo is going to be a treat to watch. But Hold up, its way too early to say whos doing what. We should see a different running package next year, If not, im going to throw rocks at Mac. They have been running a Pro set on scout team. Bo and Schwartz. Its killer.
A good O-Line and a decent RB will get you 1000 yards. I think we've had some decent RB's, we are missing a good O-Line.
