Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't that give us NINE scholarship running backs ??

Can we not purge some bodies and use the scholarships elsewhere? It seems like Gus is grabbing a sample pool and figuring what works rather than going after an every down back.

I would assume there will be some attrition. Also guys like Joiner & Whitlow could easily move positions as well if needed

AU typically tries to grab 2 RBs each cycle. That could change in 2019 but that's just my assumption. Also I stand on the side that we do have every down backs on the roster. Asa Martin, Devan Barrett, JaTarvious Whitlow, Malik Miller are all guys I think can be 20+ carry backs in the SEC
FWIW AU is making a major push on 5* Noah Cain who is a non debatable every down back. If they got someone like him I could see only signing one back in next year's class
