Greg Bryant "opening recruitment"

How do you see the running game going in 2015 and what is the break down on RB personnel? And just how much of the running do you think MZ will be doing?

  1. Folston - should get the most carries and yards
  2. Prosise - will be no. 2 RB to start the season but if he has some big runs early it may be hard not to try to feature him. He also should have the most catches out of the backfield. Also, he and Brent are the 2 biggest RB's we have so he may get a lot of the short yardage carries.
  3. Josh Adams - I really think he is no. 3 ahead of Brent and Williams. I think he'll mostly be used spell the other 2 at times, but I don't expect him to get a lot of playing time unless 1 of the other 2 get hurt.
  4. Brent - Might get about as much time as Adams but he could also be used for short yardage situations. He's a great athlete so as the season goes on and he gets more comfortable being a RB he could command more PT.
  5. Williams - I expect him to redshirt. He had a good summer camp but I don't see any reason why Kelly would play both freshman RB's unless he has to and I think Josh Adams is slightly ahead of him at this point
  6. Zaire - I think (hope) he finishes as the 3rd leading rusher. He should have some games where he rushes for a lot of yardage but Kelly won't want to expose him to more hits than necessary, so if our top 2 backs do well MZ won't have to carry the load.

Thanks Bumpdaddy for that great post! I'll be watching these guys when the season starts!
 
Dang. I remember being so pumped when he committed to ND, thought he was the real deal. At least Folston turned out to be a beast.
