Well with this class we might actually see a fair amount of splash plays.

This guy is incredible and deceptively powerful. Is it going to be a rb by committee approach next season?

That's what I'm wondering.

better to think of the running game coming from multiple positions and formations

Watched the video Stallion posted. The first highlights were "ok" and they were all touchdowns but looked like the competition may have been outclassed. ( He ran around in the backfield and did some crazy stuff that won't work in college.) However, towards the end there are multiple runs where he does not score where that I thought were much more impressive. One or two move at the line or beyond and then lowering his shoulder and driving defenders back. Clearly he looks to have the skills to translate to the college game.
