Miles wants someone to "step up" at the RB position. How can that be evaluated when no one is given the chance to stay in and get warm. I know the O-line blocking on runs has been pretty abysmal, but good backs learn and anticipate o-line moves. This is why some one needs to STAY in. Build some chemistry already. I agree it shoud be KW. :tigerhead
I agree. We are switching RB's so fast now, nobody gets warmed up in the position. Let someone stay in a quarter. Scott has looked just as good as Williams IMO, and Hester continues his solid play. AB and JV did not get it done against Tenn., although Alley looked good against Fresno, but not the same defense out there. I don't know why we didn't see Scott more yesterday. I vote Scott, Williams, Hester. Oh, thats right, I don't get a vote!
A coach doesn't "just give it to him". A back has to step up and earn it if he's going to be "The Horse". No back has done that yet, although each has been given a chance. So, if you have no horse . . . you play the herd. And its working, LSu has the number one total offense in the SEC and rushed for 230 yards yesterday, on the road versus a top-10 team.
First, let us not forget that as great as KW looked, he still only averaged 3.1 YPC. Not a breakout game, IMO, but he did look solid. Having said that.... Whoever said the playcalling was the issue is wrong. It's the OL. The OL is too inconsistent to have a consistent running game. I agree with both who vote for Hester and who vote for Williams... I actually think our playcalling was perfect against Tennessee. The only thing I take exception to is the continued playing of JV and AB. I just don't think they need any carries as they don't get anything done anymore. Allow Hester to be our back for 50% of the time, Keiland 40% of the time and throw in Holliday for the remaining 10%...These three are our future for the next two years. I like Scott too, but we need to go with either KW or Scott for the time being as playing both of them creates too much committee, and I like what I see out of KW so far.
