It’s that time of year we can all get drunk on the green Koolade, but jumpin Jehoshaphat—might this be the finest overall collection of running backs in North Texas Mean Green history?  Yes,  we had Super Jamario Thomas & the great Patrick Cobbs at one time, but they were “the 2.” 
Still, I can’t remember anything like the quality of this upcoming group since 1973—my first year as a MG fan.

Could this present group improve on those lofty numbers in 2022?

Ummm, that picture is of Adeyi not Adaway.

Yes, our RB room is probably the deepest I can ever recall.  I am interested to see Jackson perform based on his high school stats and highlights.

We are RB U! As long as I have been a Mean Green fan, since 1999 and J'Quay, we have always had at least one guy in our stable that is a stud.  This year we are deeeeeeep.

We only need serviceable play from the QB room, we don't need a superstar! Just a guy that can distribute the ball, and represent an occasional downfield threat to keep the defense honest.  

Let the RBs win our games!
