Is it that our RB recruits have not been what we thought they would be or have they not been good recruits since CMcC?
We have had Bryce Love who was terrific until he got hurt. Was he highly recruited (I don't recall)?
At the same time we had Barry Sanders who was highly recruited and did not turn out as good as thought.
Same with Emmit Smith's son. High hopes, below expectations results. We also have Sedrick Irvin whose father was an NFL running back. I'm hopeful that we'll get more from him, but injuries have also hurt him.
Up to Toby, I think our rushing record for a season was below 1200 yards so we don't have a long history of getting top notch RBs.
Another story is the QBs. We have a history of having top 10 QBs (elite 11 participants), but seem to no longer attract them, although still getting very good ones.
