This could be awesome. Excellent contrast to Aeris

Interesting. Only reason to lose weight, speed and agility, hopefully he's faster. What was his 40 time before?

Yeah, he’d need to be faster and more importantly quicker for it to be worth it.

I like this approach, I always felt Mullen let his RBs get too big. I thought Perkins had a future as a scat guy until he gained 15 lbs and turned into a tweener.

Unless your elite like Fournette or Derrick Henry, I feel like it’s black and white. Be a big guy that can pound or lighter and quick.

Hes going to lose even more come camp so he will probably go into season 20-25 pounds lighter

Good point. Hopefully it pays off

If it was me I would let him catch the football and run outside zone, sweep, etc and let Aeris pound it.

Kylin is more Saquan than Aeris is. Aeris is our bread and butter, Kylin is our hot sauce

[BuckyIsAB****]

And I want to see us get in open (2 RB 3 WR) and run the triple and some RPO's.

Moorhead is 10x more creative then me so I think we will. I think we see Fitz and Key at the same time. I know some on here have said he is mainly 11 personnel but I'd be willing to bet we see a lot of different personnel sets

Agree completely.

Im thinking Aeris Williams will put up around 1200 yds. this year. I dont see Fitz running as much....probably 500-750 yds. Wouldnt be surprised if Thompson is used a bit at RB in certain situations. Mayden will redshirt, but if one of our top two QBs get hurt, that redshirt will come off quickly.

Someone who tracks these things said PSU was 11 personal on 98% of snaps. That's pretty definitive.

I would take the over on 750 for Fitz and the under 1200 for Aeris...way under.

Agree Fitz will run a little less because his runs will have a RPO tag and the defenses will be playing him to run, so they will turn into passes post-snap. Even still, I think he gets over 750 because he'll have some long ones.

Aeris and Kylin will be close to 50/50 unless Kylin just explodes, so barring injury to one of them, I see Aeris around your 750 mark. He'll have more receiving yards than he did last year though.

This isn’t up north. It’ll be 90+ degrees in games in Sept. He’ll be forced to use more personnel simply due to that.

No way Williams rushes for 1200 splitting carries and there is absolutely now way Thompson plays Rb with 3 legitimate options there.

People are not mentioning Nick Gibson much. However, he fits Moorehead's offense better than Williams. He's perfect for the new system and was underutilized with Mullen. If Moorehead and company play this wrong Gibson may leave and we'd have 1 scholarship running back on the team next year. It would be 2 at best with signing one.

I think people are misunderstanding. It's not that he doesn't sub out, it's that they almost always had a formation with 1 RB, 1 TE, and 3 WR.

Sure, he could change it up some and probably will, but that doesn't mean he wasn't subbing players in and out...just that the personnel groupings remained the same.

Murphy could move back down. And RB is the easiest position on the field for a young guy to come in and have an immediate impact. We'll be fine. If a player isn't good enough to get on the field this year, we shouldn't be forcing it just to protect against a transfer. And surely Gibson himself could see the depth chart the following year and realize he'll get playing time by default in that scenario.

"11 personnel" not 11 players.



When naming a personnel grouping, a specific number system is used to refer to the amount of running backs and tight ends on the field. The first of the two digits is the number of RBs the second digit is the number of tight ends. For example, if there is one running back and one tight end it's 11 personnel. One running back two tight ends, the grouping is called 12 personnel. If there are two running backs and one tight end, the grouping is referred to as 21. Etc etc.

The number of wide receivers on the field is inferred, based on the fact that 11 players are allowed on the field

If Gibson was going to leave that would have already happened. I don’t see a kid leaving his SR season unless he is a grad transfer. And esp when you go into next spring as the number 2 Rb .. ( depending on who we sign this year )

Williams is not going to rush for 1,200 yards. Him, Hill and Fitz will probably all be around 700-800.

Murphy isn’t a SEC back period. I am actually shocked the kid is still here. Probs to him tho for moving positions and hopefully giving us minutes on special teams
Like you said we will be fine at RB going forward
