So... RB depth for Saturday?
1. James
2. Crenshaw
3. Barner
4. Loper? Shinaba?
Alston isn't cleared because of academics right now.

Is it too late for walk ons?
Do you need a transfusion of GREEN O Positive?

Boy that is one thin roster at RB. I think most duck fans be holding their rbeat every time we run the ball. Injury would really hurt us.

LMJ gets the majority of runs with Barner and Crenshaw (if healthy) getting significant playing time. Masoli will also run more

I have a lot of confidence in James. If he goes down though, I think the season is toast. We seem to have a ton of wide receivers/tight ends, maybe one of them can become our big back.

Is Crenshaw even going to be able to play? Wasn't he in a boot last week? Yes...we are VERY thin at RB right now.

Re: So... RB depth for Saturday?
If it became an emergency situation or a real need for depth I like Malachi getting a shot. Now that Paulson has passed him on the depth chart at TE, why not give him a shot in the backfield.

Put Dickson in as RB
just for 3rd and 1 situations...that would be cool.
In Helfrich, Frost, and Allioti we trust

Re: So... RB depth for Saturday?
Loper and Shinaba are the walk-ons. Loper is a true freshman, played in town here in Eugene at Willamette. Shinaba is a sophomore, played all over the place in HS, walked on last fall and redshirted.duckscribe wrote:Is it too late for walk ons?

Good god... That's the thinnest we've been at RB in possibly decades.
