    Williams and Hill put me in the mind of Minnesota's tandem of Laurence Maroney and Marion Barber.

    And Wilkins, despite the lack of production, has measurables that A-Train doesn't. In other words, he's faster. That doesn't mean he won't get drafted, but I'll be surprised if A-Train makes a roster.

    When A-Train runs a 4.7+ 40 at either the Combine or his pro day, he's going to fall way down the boards. Aeris is an outstanding college back, but his lack of speed is a killer at the next level. Ask Boobie. And I think Boobie was faster than A-Train.
    It's the roller coaster of hope that this program keeps us on that makes it hell being a State fan. - CadaverDawg, 10/15/22

    And Boobie was in the league for what 6 years or so...

    It's worth noting that Boobie stuck as long as he did because he was a special teams champ, not because of his ability as a running back. If Aeris can demonstrate similar effort and willingness, I'll buy that he'll make a roster.

    Hill is the best RB the school has ever had. He will get the vast majority of the carries because Moorhead keeps the same 11 players on the field because of his offensive strategy. It isn't necessarily a quick paced no huddle but he doesn't huddle or substitute so that the defense cant adjust based on personnel changes. He keeps the same 11 in and runs multiple plays out of the same formation. For this reason the RB at the beginning of the series will almost always be the same RB at the end of the series. That RB will be Hill because he has big play potential. This assuming they are both preparing and learning the offense at the same level. Without knowing who is understanding the offense better it is tough to say for sure who will be number 1 but Hill is more talented and Moorhead doesn't change personnel.

    Easy there Jack. Do you remember Keifer McGee or JJ Johnson or Jerious Norwood? Put those three in todays offense and their numbers would soar. Lets give hill a few more carries before we start with the greatness assumptions.

    As for Moorheads offense, he will interchange personnel but plans to keep the same formation, he doesn't necessarily leave the same 11 players in. I would expect to see Hill moved around some. I would not be surprised to see him line up in the slot with A-train in the backfield or vice versa.

    Whoa, I thought I was driving the Kylin Hill bandwagon, but I see I need to turn my keys over to you. Let's review where he stands as "best ever" when his State career is over. For now we can agree that he is the most talented RB on the team currently.
