2019 Griz RB's

[Copper Griz]

It would be nice to see a drop down back who can fill the void Calhoun left. Having said that, the receiving corps is ridiculously loaded with talent. What SA was doing to the Bobcats should be a much more frequent occurrence. JLM and Sulser (others as well) have speed and quicks that are superior most of the other teams in the Big sky. If the O Line gels and there is a semblance of a running game, look out. This offense could be lethal. Sneed also needs to have the time to make a read beyond his first go to. I believe this offense could be brutally effective in 2019 and especially in 2020.

Greg Bell would be a fantastic addition to the Griz backfield. Hoping for Bell for Grizmas...

Bell redshirted this year (he only played in four games), so he can go anywhere he wants. I wouldn’t hold my breath if I were you.

Somewhere out there is another Chase Reynolds. Bobby will find him, if not already?

Most college teams only have 5 maybe 6 RBs on the roster. We have fullbacks too. Our current size group is normal. Don’t expect a huge push for a RB unless we see a very good talent open. Ie bell but I doubt he comes here

Loses his starting job so he quits the team after 4 games because of the new RS rule. Sounds way too familiar; just the attitude we need.

I’m sure if Bobby wants him you’ll be all for it though right? I mean Bobby can do no wrong right?

i agree. i count 8 on the NDSU roster (2 of whom will graduate this year) and 6 for EWU. with a drop-down, a position change or transfer we should be right about average in terms of numbers of RB's.

I don't believe that is how it works.

Yes, if the OL wakes up from their long sleep.

I believe it actually does. Bell preserved his red-shirt by only playing in four games. He never actually made it to San Diego State because he didn't qualify academically. He signed, but never ended up enrolling. He was at a JUCO for two years, then went to Nebraska and played in four games. I actually do believe he is free to go to another FBS school, unless I'm missing something.

Also, I don't know if I would consider his Twitter as an insight into what he's doing either. Yes, these days, MOST of these kids you can get a good sense, but, he literally never posts anything about himself, and if you're just going by followers and following to say there's a "buzz" with the Griz. Well, he follows two Griz coaches and Akem, but he also follows Choate and Orphey too, so I guess there's a buzz with him possibly going to MSU too.

I do not think he is coming. The old "to good to be true " saying. As for Twitter followings, heard that more times than I can count with it not being significant in the end. Gladly eat crow if it happens but not worried about any future indigestion on the one.

the Green kid is a mystery to me....he was a sought after recruit in high school, good size and speed too...his film was real good.......has he been hurt or what ? .....is he even in the running ? ...must have been buried on the depth chart also...just wondering ?

From what I heard was healthy, just not chosen to get reps. When Janacaro and Graves got reps and he didn't it had even some players wondering why. Not sure if he was somehow in Bobby's doghouse or he just didn't like him. It was pretty evident that Bobby wanted his guy to get the majority of reps. Lee was not used much either.

I understand he's an anthropology major, which may be the reason he follows Choachode.

I knew someone would take this angle. :lol:
Thanks for not disappointing. :thumb:

Ball security problems. If he is back and takes care of the ball better, he should be in the running.

Garret Graves. Is listed as qb but every time he played during a game, he played rb.

+1

I'd like to see him more at the RB position. I thought he did quite well albeit in limited action.

He reminds me of the way Troy Andersen runs. He's no TA, but his hard, aggressive, style reminded me of TA.

I had gotten the same impression.

Well, Choate does have a certain amount of Cro-magnetism.
