Since we did not recruit a RB in this last class

[Rebel10]

I hope we recruit one in this class. No disrespect for either back but just sayin'.

[mrydel]

We still have Shead if he lives up to his billing

[Rebel10]

Yes, I know that but since it take about a year to learn the offense and Shead graduates after next year that would leave a 2 year gap between Line and the next back we recruit if we do not get a running back in this class.

[Terry Webster]

I wish that they would put P. Line on the bench and let KC get the carries. Line is just too slow.

[couch 'em]

-16 rushing yards right now. Ugg.

The next coach will not have an offense that takes a year( or 5) to learn.

Wasn't he the best player in Michigan his senior year? So far he looks like the SMU version of Case McCoy........

Why is a Texas school going to Michigan to recruit a running back? U of Michigan doesn't even recruit Michigan running backs.

[Big Hoss]

The last one from Michigan worked out for us pretty well, and he was a LB in high school.

[Ponymon]

June doesn't utilize the RB position anymore so why recruit one? Afterall the QB generally does all the running!

I know I'm going to get heat for this, but here we go. Zach Line was ok. He was decent. He was not a BCS level back. He was a good CUSA back. Zach had multi touchdown games against Memphis and Sam Houston. We didn't hear from him in the Baylor or A&M games. Schools like Sewanee rely on word of mouth recruiting. The P5 teams sign players with more empirical data (stars).

He ran for 140+ in college station

140 yard one ts game is an average game for a college running back. Not great. Average. Zach Line would have played linebacker or special teams at TX, A&M, OU, Baylor, Alabama, LSU, Michigan, ND.....

He is like the SMU version of Tebow. He was great for us when we had him, but it doesn't translate outside of the Park Cities bubble.

[RGV Pony]

Dirtysouth is for the most part correct.

[Rebel10]

This focus now is not on a running back that graduated. It should be on the ones we have. Hopefully Shead is back next week.
