There would be fault found regardless of who is starting TB.

Not suprised, he is a SR. Prolly be listed as the starter even if he doenst get the bulk of the carries.

running first string at practice today. It's only day two so things will shake out. Porter took a lot of heat for the RB rotation the past few years. That excuse is out the window.

People are overlooking Murph for the "new toys" in Ridley and Ford. Murphy is a good back.

They'll all split time until they fumble, though. Then they'll sit for a while.

u all know im a murphy fan, but in this case all of chille cuz until they put on pads this doesnt mean anything. know i do think he be 1st string back at the beginning of the yr and throughout the season. not because he is a senior but because he won the spot outright

I think everyone's want should be for Murphy to start. He is much improved, dedicated, and improved. He desire for success, especially with this team, is sharp. He's wearing the #18, which other than being a number, is special.

I just hope he stays healthy, he's fought through enough to see the field in his sr year.

Meaningless distinction at that position, and a few others others. Many guys will play.

I like Murphy too, but he isn't an every down type back who can carry the running game. Ridley and Ford need to split the main carries and Murphy should be used as s situational RB, 3rd downs, and as a receiving threat.

he will unless he cant get it done.

It'll be a 3 back rotation with Murphy getting the bulk, Ridley and Ford getting theirs as well.

Were not going to have anyone avg. 20-25 cpg this year.

Does not mean he will get the most carries, just the first carry.

Meaningless, Ridley ran first yesterday. Who ever has the best camp will get the bulk of the carries, doesn't matter who the "starter" is for the next month.

Ridley is number one on the depth chart and will be to start the season.

miles & porter had two different rbs going for over 1,000 yards. that hasn't happened since the 80's.
