You guys have had more consistency at this one position than any other program in the past 8 years. Along with that, Richt will commit to the run and throw waves of backs at you. With Chubb, the best back in the SEC, headlining the unit, I want some opinions on the rest especially the freshman.

sony michel- was 2nd string behind gurley to start 2014. Former 5* out of miami. He's not a bruiser like chubb, he's a lot more fluid and shifty, but he's certainly not a scatback. I'm not saying they're the same of course, but if I had to compare him to someone I'd say carnell williams, style wise.

keith marshall- finally healthy again after his excellent 2012 season where he ran for around 800 yards behind gurley. He's a speed guy all the way. If he has a crease he's gone, but he's not good between the tackles and typically needs a hole rather than creating one for himself.

brendan douglas- backup white guy who can pound it. He's played admirably the last 2 years but shouldn't get significant carries. Is usually good for 3-4 yards a pop.

AJ Turman- redshhirted and has never played. He supposedly looks good though so we're excited to see what he can do. He was the best looking back in the spring game.

I'll post some gifs in a later post.

Sony Michel is currently our number 2 and was actually listed ahead of Chubb on the depth chart last year before blowing out his shoulder against UTk. He was a former 5* recruit out of Miami and is VERY good.

Keith Marshall is our #3 and was a 5* out of NC along with Gurley. He blew out his knee his sophomore year and has struggled to get back to his freshman explosiveness but by all accounts has made huge strides and should see a lot of PT with Michel and Chubb.

Brendan Douglas is our #4. He has been jokingly referred to as "The White Adrian Petersen" by teammates because of how hard nosed a runner he is. His highlight film is actually pretty impressive for being #4 on the list; he has put some nasty licks on UF and USCe players and did a full flip into the endzone against Mizzou last year. Very solid player.

AJ Turman is a former 3/4* kid out of FL that hasn;t seen much PT. However, he is said to be a strong runner. Just hard to see the light of day when you have these guys ahead of you.

Tae Crowder is our lone frashman this year. He's a really tall kid for a RB (similair to Gurley) and there's some talk that he may move out to WR eventually. He wasn't a highly rated kid but we have him on reserve should we have a repeat of the injuries in 2013.
