It seems Kam Martin will be “The Guy” heading into the season...

While we’re discussing RB’s, I have it on good authority that we’ll be very fortunate if Harold Joiner lasts more than a few semesters at AU. Apparently he’s pretty heavily involved in some illegal activities.

Like how illegal we talking? Is he buying an ounce of dro and spreading it around to some friends and just trying? Or is he getting that hair-ron re-up on the weekly and being bout that life?

It’s my understanding that he is (hopefully was) transporting mass quantities of notweed from his home base down to the coastal area. A buddy saw him make a delivery with his own eyes and later found out he was an AU player and his full name. Thankfully my buddy is in rehab now so he’s staying away from that life at the moment.
 
When you become an adult it will get better though. You'll realize there are way more important issues in life outside of OL recruiting.
How’s about you blow me? This is a fvcking message board where people regularly talk about Boog Football. It’s not a place where people generally come to discuss the truly “more important issues in life”.

Hopefully it was just a few bags of flour to get some cakes baked.

As I predicted after last season, get ready for Gus to try getting Chandler Cox into the mix as a ball carrier once KMart proves he’s not the every down back Gus thinks/hopes/prays he is.

Screw giving the ball to young studs like AMart, Boobie, or Joiner... let’s let them rot on the sidelines and get frustrated into acting out while we do amateur shit like making Gus’s favorite Son a focal point in the offense.

Gonna be a long season, I’m afraid, fellow Greggers.

It will be by committee this year. My buddy was a the coaching clinic and that is what Horton told him. Just because someone is the starter doesn't mean they will be getting 20+ carries. Now, in Malzahn's system that has been true, but I believe that will change dramatically this year. Kam may be the main guy due to his ability to catch the ball. We'll find out soon enough if Horton lied, but I believe we will use runningbacks by committee.
When did Kam learn how to catch? He sure didn't show off that skill in Athens in 2016
 
I don't think Chandler Cox is getting any real reps at RB. that's just from the 15 minutes of "practice" that gus let the media see, so I all know that his paranoid ass wasn't letting them see anything. JMO

Ha even the psychos of the 247 network aren’t on board. I don’t think he’ll get reps but the fact he’s on scholarship and gets a lot of PT is a disgrace. Was only ever useful to help us procure his stud OT buddy and he failed.

You forgot to include show much better he is than Dell McGee
No shit. I saw Ricecake the other day on tbb attacking everyone and anyone who had anything negative to say about Horton recruiting prowess... or lack there of. When he tried to say Horton was a better coach than McGee I lost it. Every time I see ricecake post I'm like...

The frustrating part about Cox is we gave him a bunch of reps in the spring and fall to have him ready as an emergency RB if we needed him. And then we needed him for the SECCG when it was apparent KJ was crippled and we didn't trust Martin, but we never gave him any carries. And it's not like we were going to sacrifice anything by having him at RB on some plays. Some of our most successful run formations came from 10 or 11 personnel where Cox wasn't on the field or lined up in the HB spot. We had a lot of success running out of single-back looks last year, which would've been perfect for Cox to get a few carries.

I'm not a proponent of using Cox as an every-down RB. I don't think he's athletic or agile enough to run some of the things we ask of our RBs, but damnit, he's good enough to get us through a big game when he's been prepped as the emergency guy without severely handicapping the offense. He can do everything we need a RB to do for one game or one half if we get into a tight.
 
I think of the backup RB position this way...

If RB1 goes down against UGA/LSU/Bama, is the “emergency RB” gonna be able to give us winning carries against those guys?

If the answer is “No” and winning championships is the ULTIMATE goal, you’re preparing the wrong backup RB. Period.

Cox ain’t gonna have a prayer against those guys, so why not get someone else ready who could potentially have a shot if they receive proper development?

I don’t disagree there, but our options last year were injured KJ, healthy scrawny KMart, suspended Pettway, or white Cox. If we didn’t trust KMart, which IMO is clear we didn’t, and you don’t have anyone else to prepare for the emergency situation, why aren’t you using the emergency RB? It was a better option than broken KJ or a RB you didn’t trust to pass protect.

In any event, we shouldn’t be in a situation where we’re preparing Chandler Cox as an emergency RB. We should have enough options on campus where it never comes to that.
 
What happened to the Barrett kid? He just gonna come in a catch swing passes his whole career?

It’s actually amazing when you look at how retarded Gus is with personnel. He finds a niche for literally every single player and that’s pretty much all they do. Ever.
