I know he's small, but again, give the kid a year in the weight room and let's see what happens. Got one from PC coming in on the line and possibly.......possibly one from Radford that can fill in at running back. That one is far from a definite. The kid from PC is pretty much a done deal. The backfield is where Giles is gonna suffer next year. It will be similar to 2009. We had a great line, but didn’t have the right backfield to run behind it. Someone will have to step up at tailback, Khalik will be the fullback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, we aren't going to be as strong in the backfield. That's a given. I just think Khalik will get a lot of touches. If I had the choice, I would want to be solid on the OL and also in the backfield. But, if I only had one to choose from, I would rather be good up front and then hope we can find someone to carry the rock instead of.....having great backs, but having an ineffective OL.

I agree that Khalik will get a lot more touches next year. We just haven’t been very effective on our fullback runs this season but hopefully that will change with returning most of the o-line. What these kids choose to do in the off-season is very critical. Hopefully they choose the weight room. BandanaVTDavis4321 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to get a little tougher running the ball, but he's just a sophomore too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it is a definite plus to have a tailback that can throw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
