Hankton is over the receiver rotation. Wilson is over the running back rotation.


Ok but BK is over both. If my job was on the line and Berry is running the ball better than Durham, wouldn’t the HC step in and make sure Berry got more carries? I guess it’s the same problem with Nuss going out hurt against OM versus getting MVB some PT. BK needs to take charge of this stuff.

He does that during the week but not in game. He has a little more say in the QB room on gamedays but as a whole the rotations are exclusively handled by position Coach. Hankton has screwed up the WR rotation and been screamed at multiple times by Kelly but Kelly doesn't take it over because there are too many details in game for him to worry about substitutions and rotations.

Caden Durham was measurably faster last year before getting hurt in Game 6. He's still slower

Yeah and he didn't develop any power, so he's kind of JV 2.0 in a way.

I’m running backs seem to take about 10 steps before they are at full speed, that’s high school shite. I’ll watch some of the explosive running backs in the SEC, and other schools really, those dudes are full speed in two or three steps.
