Mikey 16,776 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Either running backs Cobb or Alston leaving would be a kick in the teeth. Battie or Jackson, not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally would prefer to keep Cobb, Alston and Battie. JH just didn’t take the next step last year as many thought he would Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure he’s going to get many more touches than he got last year. When I think of scholarship running backs I don't even think about Sean Jackson anymore. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScotsAU 1,343 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Most likely exit would be Battie. He’s a senior, and his carries will probably not go up this year. Alston and Cobb have great chances to be featured backs next year. Didn’t Battie even put his name in the portal previously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yngwie1995 2,232 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 I'd be bummed if Cobb leaves. He's the best RB, IMO. His workload should increase this year, and next year he'll be the man. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree he needs to step it up but there were a lot of excuses for his performance last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUpreacherman22 3,892 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 Hopefully, we’ll start seeing some portal activity soon! I expect a few guys to depart as they don’t see a path to significant playing time. And hopefully we’ll bring in some quality players to fill needs. Anyone hearing anything yet???

He seems to potentially have the highest ceiling of the group and is good as a check down option as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeek 16,660 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 A little sad about this one I have liked him a lot since his high school recruitment. He does seem to be down the depth chart a bit though. The freshmen have been performing well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobb looks to be very versatile and it would be real bad to lose him. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much of the JH mystique is because of that 94-yard run? That's the only run I remember. I'm sure he's had others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
