Who starts at Runningback this fall ?

[Alto1]

Jabari Small

Will definitely be in the conversation...

I thought he looked good with the few carries he got. Should of played more imo.

 

[TJSVOLS]

What gave it away, the ridiculousness of the person or the smiley face at the end?

I guess you haven't been reading vn very often, everyone is a candidate. So I guess neither...

Agree...actually thought he looked the most natural of them all..

I thought the same thing. Definitely looked better than Chandler to me.

I have been, I just thought it would be funny to throw one out that nobody else had mentioned (which is hard to do!). I guess it wasn't. My bad.

Evans & Brown. Should be a nice combination. Small will be 3rd in rotation.

Thanks coach!

That's kind of my thinking, Smalls may start as number 2 is my only difference in thinking and then Brown gets more carries as we go. GBO!

 

[PEPPERJAX]

Thanks coach!

OP asked a question and I provided my opinion.

 

[tennesseeduke]

We have what maybe 200 yards in returning RBs ?

JUCO Transfer Tiyon Evans!

Nation's No. 1-ranked junior college RB signs with Vols

 

[HalfullVol]

we have lots of options

thankfully

 

[VOLfrombama]

Evans if he works really hard to get back into football shape. He hasn’t played in a hot minute.

 

[TMvol10]

Cody Brown is going to be legit. Not sure if he’ll lead the team his freshman year but as a sophomore I believe he will

 

[Commish14]

We won't know until we have a coach. By the way, what do you guys think of Phillip Rivers? I think he has the knowledge to be a great coach. He certainly has required NFL experience.

He's going to South Alabama to coach some Private High School team ...

 

[utvols20]

Brown!!!

Bryce?

 

[Border Vol]

Tiyon Evans hopefully.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

So we take the top JUCO RB only to look for a starting RB in the portal? Is that what some of you think?

[GUNTERSVOL]

If Grey doesn't come back, probably Evans and Small are 1a and 1b unless Beckwith stays there and flashes. Brown and Wright will get some run as well. Whitehead and/or Hodge may move to LB depending on depth there.

I was really hoping that Whitehead was going to be last years big breakout star at RB. Not based on anything but that he was shunned by his hometown Team, seemed to have exceptional speed recorded for his size and had great SPARQ scores at camp. What a wonderful in your face GA story that would have been. Hope his injury issues are totally behind him and he has not lost a step and does help somewhere.

 

[shane80]

Hopefully Evans. It will be nice to have some bigger backs running the ball.

 

[LittleVol]

it depends on the new OC.

Evans and Brown are the top pure RBs next season imo.
Beckwith is a freak that can play RB, TE, WR. Imagine a Kyle Pitts like TE than can also line up the backfield and run off tackle.

I'll go with Beckwith and Evans with Brown in 2021
Then Evans and Brown with Small in 2022 and Beckwith playing some type of offensive weapon position.

Hodge is guy that will factor as a blocking back and special teams. Short yardage runner and dumpoff option. Small will be your KR.

[Carson11]

Banks, Evans and Small.

 

[VolMarine1371]

Bryce?

Cody

 

[Mose Phillip's Watch]

He is the new

He is the new high school coach in Fairhope Alabama
