I watched him some during his high school years. Is he the starting RB this season?

Most likely going to be Carson but Williams will get his share provided he has dedicated himself to pass blocking.

Both are good but I get really excited when Williams is carrying. The guy is slippery quick and then he's fast once he creates space.

We have more of a three headed attack. Trey Williams and Tra Carson will probably have most of the carries, with Brandon Williams getting a smaller amount of carries.

If I had to guess, I would say that Carson probably starts most games with T. Williams coming in as a change of pace.

If he figures out how to pass block he will be. Otherwise I think Carson gets the nod.

No but he should get a lot of touches. Carson will likely start though.

I'm excited to see some new formations. If we really are using RSJ as an h-back guy, I think we could see some cool diamond/pistol type shite.

Probably not, but he might as well be. Him and Carson will split the majority of the carries. Brandon Williams will get enough to make an impact too.

Here was last years breakdown.
Johnny - 144
Malena - 115
Carson - 62
Trey - 58
Brandon - 44

I expect...
Carson - 135
Trey - 125
Brandon - 95
White - 40

We ran some diamond and pistol against Duke IIRC. I saw his comments the other day indicating the run game would be big for us this year, which I like

Looks about right. I'm sure we will run a few designed runs for Hill if he's the starter but probably not a lot.

aTm never starts their best back. Ben melena was garbage. Carson and B.Williams are basically the same player. Tre Williams is the best of the 3

When I started no one else had responded. My post just took a little research.

Ben could pass block. The others struggled with that. Therefore, he started.

I agree that Ben was nothing special, but damn if he wasn't a lunch pail guy if ever there was one. He earned his snaps by just not being a liability in any way.

Be careful before you slob on your mediocre starting RB. He backed up Ben melena who is trash. And Brandon Williams had a higher yards per rush average.

I remember when I played Madden I would always start the guy with the highest YPC

Numbers don't lie. And as far as the same back comment goes, I'd hardly call Carson a "thumper" where was he during the Alabama game? He would have gotten "thumped" by Alabama LBs that outweigh him by 50 pounds.
