But with only 3 RBs on the roster after this season, Oregon's depth chart is not completely unfriendly for RBs who are willing to compete and wait to be the go-to back.ksmack wrote:We have a great chance to get Byron marshall, but of course the depth chart will be an issue.

This is guy is quite a RB! he is not afraid to go between the tackles yet is elusive. THx for the vid!
Will we now recruit a RB?

Four RBs next year counting Forde. Which is still thin.greenyellow wrote:But with only 3 RBs on the roster after this season, Oregon's depth chart is not completely unfriendly for RBs who are willing to compete and wait to be the go-to back.ksmack wrote:We have a great chance to get Byron marshall, but of course the depth chart will be an issue.

Losing Seastrunk should reduce the depth chart issue quite a bit.

Re: Will we now recruit a RB?
Where would a back like Tyner figure into our rb corp? Obviously a 6'1'' 210 lb speed demon would fit the mold very well but is the kind of back who wants to split carries? one other thing, does anyone know what his 100 times were this summer?

Re: Will we now recruit a RB?
By the time he got here, DaT and Carson (assuming both play this season and are still here) would be JRs while any RBs they get for this coming class would be SOs or RS FR. I'd assume he'd challenge for at least 3rd on the depth chart, maybe even 2nd if he's not far behind Carson. His earliest possible chance at starting would probably be his JR year.
