Why would a great RB want to come here when we have two already and a big back who is hurt?

Yep. I meant Dyer. I was multitasking. Mosley is supposed to announce before Dyer. Dyer also said he will still visit and look around after his "commitment".

- Williams just blew his knee out
- Bryce has that hip injury
- Oku has not proven he can run between the tackles in the SEC
- Poole might not be here next year

To be fair, Oku really hasn't had much of a chance. All he's got has been some mop up duty. Granted, i know he's not a Hardesty or Brown, just not that type of back.

I want to see Oku get more carries with meaningful snaps.

That's my point. There's a reason he hasn't gotten more carries. It's not for sure that he can do that yet. I think he will be able to, but you always need depth in case he can't...

look at the haul of 5* backs pulled in 3 straight recruiting classes. Stud backs aren't afraid of competition. they want to prove their the best.

I think CLK would like to get BB and Oku more carries, but frankly he's got a TB in Hardesty that is making a case to go on the first day in the NFL draft.

To some degree, you want to give a guy like Hardesty plenty enough carries to get a good draft grade (for his sake and for the impact it will have in recruiting), not to mention that he's just the best guy we have right now.

Ok, a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then, but I think a poll of SEC fans would show that they would rather have their team play KY than Auburn. Auburn's recruiting is also pretty fierce right now while Kentucky is... well, you know.

You give Hardesty the most carries simply because he's the best back on the roster, not to boost his draft stock.
