Heated battles next season at RB and QB . . .

Maybe at QB but not RB. Cronkrite would have been the starter this year if eligible so barring injury it should be the case next year.

Mack also played, Elijah Mack. 3 Rushes for 10 yards.

I noticed that in the box score too, but somehow missed that while watching. Any idea when he got those carries?

The big senior losses will be Q, Tice, Johnson, MVS, Ruff and Jeremi Hall on offense.

Defense Senat, Love, Sanchez, Hector, Abraham, Nichols and Fullwood.

Plus both punter and Kicker.

That's why it's good to get the younger guys in whenever you can.  I heard on the last broadcast that we rotate several guys on the d-line.

The coaches gave him limited reps since he wasn’t playing this year but with what he did in those reps had everyone feeling the job would have been his if eligible even with those reps. 

If you look at this years RBs, Tice is having  more success and fits the style of running that this offense needs. Patient North-south runner with good vision, one cut and go. Cronkrite is the same style just bigger, faster and stronger and probably better vision as well. DJ has struggled more because that’s not his style as much.

Late in  the 4th quarter.

We already have two good ones for 2018.

Plant QB Jordan McCloud had 5 touchdowns (4 passing, 1 rushing) in a 36-0 win over Sickles. @jmccloud3423

 

*Carver (Atlanta) QB Octavious Battle was 19-of-23 passing for 355 yards and two touchdowns, rushed for 87 yards on seven carries and converted four two-point tries in a 36-29 victory over North Springs.

If he is doing things in the city of Atlanta its a good sign.  This is a very underrated recruiting ground that should be explored more often.

I don't know about all that. We;ve had a handful of high profile transfers come to USF and get their feelings hurt. Sands looks pretty fast. I think it will be a running back by committee. If Cronkite wins then cool, but sands will get his carries as well.
