It's like seeing OJ Howard enter the field. You already knew what he could do, and what he wasn't very good at doing.

The main four RB's ... all have OJ's traits.

The most complete back probably rides the bench this season...kid they flipped from the Illini.

It's wild looking at that group. Take Hill. I love the potential and he's had a lot of shining moments the last few months. But, he's another Mark...break a tackle? Sure. Scamper of 80 like Shaud in Fayetteville? Ain't happening.

Jam can get them 80 just like that...IF he can see the hole developing. Speed! But if he's hit, he's going down. Young would run through them with no imagination or burst. He's just power.

Deer can...slow on the uptake of the offense from what I understand. Riley's name has come up...not a power guy; scat runner.

Well, you can have a good running back anytime if we could get Jeff Stoutland to come back...
