2021 Fall Camp Notes - Running Backs

[J-MAGIC]

LJS

I don't think individual periods are really tied to the depth chart most places. It'd be a lot more meaningful if he were in there a bunch in team periods.

I still think Gabe will be our top back this season. His HS film was very good, he does things that many college guys never even pick up. Vision, balance, acceleration, effort. And oh yeah, he's a capable pass catcher and blocker. 

I've been wrong about a lot of things in my life (zips up fanny pack), but I feel like I'm going to be right about this.  Watching the spring game, he's the most complete back we have...then Morrison and Yant.  Stepp gets a pass because I haven't seen him in our offense.  

Ervin is our next great RB at Nebraska, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Pretty much everyone that watched practice think Ervin is RB1.

I just want to make sure that I didn't fall into a coma and miss a couple of years....Yant is a TRUE FRESHMAN, yes??

That man is scary! lol

Have fun tackling him in the 4th quarter.

He is a true freshman eligibility wise but he was here last year.  And he's 20 years old, so that helps a bit.

But that's still a pretty scary dude running at you.

@Mavric this is you...bursting my bubble, sir.  Hashtag sad#

Only downside to that is our RB room could get thin if the other guys see the writing on the wall for the next 4 years.

It's a risk and it's how things go now-a-days.

But I think there will be at least three guys who are seeing the field regularly.  You might lose a guy or two behind that but that's about the best you can hope for.

Ervin also getting a shout out from JoJo when asked to pick a "breakout" player on offense this year.

It was interesting for Lubick to say they've been rotating 5 backs, and then listed Irvin, Stepp, Morrison, Scott, and Johnson. No mention of Yant.

Ervin?  who is our straight away fastest RB, now in camp?

*wonders how long it will take people to learn how to spell Ervin's name*
