Absolutely not on hoping he comes back. We need at least 20 scholarship departures just to stay within roster limits. He doesn’t make the cut.

That said, I think he could be a nice receiving option/what used to be called a third down back type elsewhere. Just doesn’t fit what we need and where we are in the rebuild.

Totally agree. When he first arrived at Stanford, he was considered a 'tweener. Not big enough to be a running back full time and probably going to play in the slot. That changed pretty quickly into being a full-time running back. I always wondered if that was his wish or was it the coaching staff's idea. Anybody know that story? In any case, IMO he isn't a running back and hopefully he can take a last year and establish some credentials as a receiver.
