Thread: Is there a date set for the beginning of fall camp?

  1. #1

    Default Is there a date set for the beginning of fall camp?

    The running back competition will be very intriguing. Have we ever had running backs of this caliber competing for the starting job?

    Fenroy & Deon Wallace?

    Wallace was a bust. I remember players likeTony Hills telling us during fall camp that Fenroy was stronger and better. He was real quiet, but good. The rest was history.

    Wallace was def not a bust. Fenroy was just better. Had Wallace stayed for his senior season he would have been a 1000 yard rusher.

    Spikes did not want to compete when Coach Hud came in.

    Back to Wallace, 685 yards from 06-07. Dude was serviceable at best for a hyped three-star recruit. Also remember we almost lead the nation in rushing both of those years so there is no excuse. Dude was a bust.

    If you look at his ypc he was almost as effective as fenroy. His 685 yards were based on limited snaps. He was as good as any rb we have now.

    We will know "as good" after their careers wrap up.

    On the other hand you are 100% correct, with two 1000 yard rushers in the lineup there are only so many touches to go around.

    In my view one thing that stunted D.W's career was having to sit out spring football in (I think) 2008 to focus on academics.

    If I am right (it may have been 07) the head start or momentum he gave the other players, was something he never recovered from, touches wise.
