Charleston Southern vs Jacksonville State

Man Nguyen sucks as a RB. Both of these teams have 3 or 4 backs that are better than anything in the Big Suck conference

Agreed, but I think that und back is going to be a good one

Although I feel that calling out a 20 y.o. dude by name is a dick move, especially by a guy that never did shit in sports at any level, I agree that we are run-challenged in the Big Sky. This needs to be addressed. We need a power guy a la Reynolds/Hilliard/Humphrey/Moore, Scmidt was good too-- ASAFP. Is this staff even attempting to recruit that position?? I've heard nothing on that...

I doubt we will see a bruiser like Hilliard or Humphrey with Stitt, but I also don't think we'll see another guy as small as Nguyen either. I think Calhoun will have the potential to be a great one for us. That is just 1/2 the battle though, gotta have an offensive line that can win the line of scrimmage for any back to be productive.

A bruiser that can get 3-5 a run, consistently, would have been enough to change how a few teams played us on defense this year.

I think it's more of an O-line issue than a RB issue. Honestly the "style" of back is probably not that important, as long as they can pass-block, catch some passes, and run well, they'll probably work.
