and then we wont use any of them and our running game will be predictable qb draws.

Dang man - every post I have read today from you is sooooo negative.  Go out and have a Happy New Years and cheer up.

He nailed it though. We have no idea how to use our running backs.

Zero clue, but Im sure it has to do with players not busting their butts in practice and taking the oppurtunity.  No way it has anything to do with coaching.  NO WAY!

I predict that ATLEAST 1 RB will transfer out between now and next fall.  Also people are saying that we shouldn't count on Bellamy making it here and Powell still has some work to do Academically.

I will be surprised if you see Ford back next year.  This guy is a disappointment and a screw up so there is no reason to keep him.  He has never produced on the field, been a problem off the field, academic issues, and I think he was a problem at practice.  No more, bring in the newbies that want it, he does not.

Mo has worked his butt off,and should not be tossed out, but I do not know about getting a 6th year for him.

It must have been my imagination during the UCONN game that Ford was pounding the ball up and down the field all night against them. He was given an opportunity and he showed that he wants it. Get a RB coach that knows how to use the RB's and I think we will all see more production from everyone at that position.

Ok for one, Mike Ford is real deal running back.... as in size and running ability. Two we never used him the right way, which is in the I back with a lot of power and traps and down hill running. Three look how many times did  mike get the ball more then 14 times in a game this year? ONCE!!!!! Which was in the UCONN Game were he went 20 for 79 and touchdown.  Look at 2007 he had 138 attempts for 645 and 12 TD's and that was sharing the load with Ben Williams. I remember that year Mike went for 123 and two touch downs vs SU and he had a lot of carries.  The sad thing this year is that qustionably the most high heralded RB only averages just under six carries a game, as the Monday Night Football Pregame crew would say C'om Man. If you really wanna win bowl game line up and run right up NIU a#% with Richard Kelly at FB and Mike Ford at HB  because as BCS school are Oline should be able dominate the smaller NIU up front.

I would think that one more screw up and he would be gone but i don't know if the coaches would do that in his final year.
