Bingo!!! There is no fb behind Copeland. Hill will probably get a ton of time at fb. He will be a threat to run or catch the ball. Think Hester and Ridley.

I think you are going to be surprised. Any way you look at it, its a great problem to have. We have the best RB corp in the country.

Breakdown of scrimmage for running backs:

Hill 9-71
Hilliard 8-30
Ford 4-30

Hill played some with the first team according to those who attended.

There is no way he red shirts! FB and HB doesn't matter, but you put your best players on the field. BTW I used to think Les favored seniority, but Les loves big backs who can run over guys more! See Kenny Hilliard.

You absolutely cannot keep a talent like this on the bench. Jeremy Hill is the whole package. None of the other backs we have are at this level, even thought they are all quite good.

Remember, there is a distinct difference between good and great. That is why the top 8 or 10 players in the NBA are paid a lot more than the next level players. The premier guys can deliver in crunch time when it really matters.

With all of that said, we will need to see Mr. Hill use his talent and energies on a consistent basis to make a final assessment. I just hope he stays healthy, and is so, it is only a matter of time until we see great instead of good...

It's extremely possible Ware, Ford, and Blue leave after this season, though I think only Ware is sure to go.
Why do so many folks assume that every junior on this team is going pro? Les actually has a pretty good record of getting guys to stay.
