Next year, we have the following who will all get some snaps at RB: Trindon Holiday, Jr Richard Murphy, So Stevan Ridley, Fr Charles Scott, Jr Keiland Williams, Jr I want to see some guesses for how many carries, yards, and TD's each guy gets. Let's have them!
I added catches just to show total touches. Trindon Holiday, Jr 43 carries, 11 catches (if he plays) Richard Murphy, So 66 carries 8 catches Stevan Ridley, Fr 22 carries 2 catches Charles Scott, Jr 163 carries 8 catches Keiland Williams, Jr 94 carries 14 catches
My guess: Scott: 100 carries for 500 yards, 9 TD's Keiland: 75 carries for 450 yards, 5 TD's Trindon: 60 carries for 450 yards, 3 TD's Richard: 50 carries for 300 yards, 3 TD's Ridley: 25 carries for 180 yards, 1 TD Plus Perrilloux with: 70 carries for 250 net yards, 6 rushing TD's
Charles Scott - 123 carries 638 yards Keiland Williams - 107 carries 617 yards Richard Murphy - 77 carries 412 yards Trindon Holliday - 54 carries 287 yards Stevan Ridley - 31 carries 99 yards Bonus*** Herman Johnson 1 carry 7 yards and a TD on a fumblerooskie.
Just add em all up. Looks good to me. Their is no "I" in team. It will be interesting to see how Les uses all of these weapons. And I think most all of them are Sunday players, just may not have the numbers that we have seen from "traditional" backs in the past. Times they are a changin...
I'd be glad to be a runningback at LSU as long as I get enough carries to highlight my skills... other than that, just saving my legs for the NFL...
