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

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

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.

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

I've watched his film and he's a special talent. Tre Mason-like through the holes and can turn it up when in open space. Someone from auburn needs to talk to him everyday for the next year lol.
