now that we've got ford, what happens to plancher?  or williams?  or ponton?  I only heard good things about plancher in the offseason, and due to the praises of some of you guys, I could have sworn that he was the 2nd coming of Warrick Dunn.  With that being said, if he was that good, should we RS Mike Ford this upcoming season?  It will give him an opportunity to learn the ropes of college, both on the field and off.  It will also get him acclimated to our offense and the plays.  Hey, it worked for Grothe.  From what I hear, Ford has 4 full yrs of eligiblity.  if Plancher is that good, we can maximize those yrs by seasoning him with a RS.

I don't see us redshirting Ford, he can play next season and contribute heavily.  I see us doing a lot of two back sets... ;)

We definitly shouldn't Red Shirt Ford, we can utilize the talents of both backs. I am sure Ford can easily get adjusted

Ford is already 2 years out from HS, so he is probably 20 years old.  No redshirt, especially given the hype and the lack of RB production last year.

You have to worry about Ponton even making it on the team after his prior suspension and his act after the Bowl game.
