Thanks_Tom RR Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Cross---pass pro, short yard packages Newby---homerun hitter, outside threat Taylor---inside runner, pass pro Wilbon---low to the ground, hip flexion, lateral cuts (similar to Stevenson, but less explosive) Ozigbo---big back, proven passing threat Stevenson---homerun hitter, inside/outside threat, lateral cuts Nabity---pass pro, short yard packages Nelson---inside/outside zone runner Grouping these RBs, I could see (no order): Pass pro: Cross, Taylor, Nabity, Ozigbo Passing threat: Ozigbo, Wilbon Inside zone: Cross, Taylor, Wilbon, Ozigbo, Nelson, Stevenson Outside zone: Newby, Stevenson, Ozigbo, Nelson Power: Cross, Taylor, Ozigbo, Nabity (maybe Wilbon and Stevenson) Fly sweep: Newby, Stevenson, DPE If you needed three/four guys to cover these requirements, I would say we could see Newby/Stevenson being our outside/motion/homerun threat, Wilbon/Taylor/Stevenson as the inside guy, and Ozigbo/Wilson as the pass catcher. 2 Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Cross should have been moved to LB in the spring. Even if just as a reserve. And let him run around and smash people on special teams. Hmm... personally, I don't know about that. One thing we know Cross is good at is his ability to go north and south, not so much his lateral movement, and you need to be able to move laterally quickly as a LB. Quote Link to comment

True2tRA Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Sounded like Newby is ahead of the pack right now. Definite leader starting fall camp. Riley didn't even hesitate to say that. I also heard someone say RB by committee was not something Riley usually did a lot of? With the competition and talent at RB that might change a bit. Quote Link to comment

quesadilla Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Here is what they are saying about Stevenson to Nebraska over at a Wisconsin board "Buckyville dot yuku dot com" As I understand it. Nebraska has been trying to improve it's academic reputation since joining the B10. Doesn't this scream 'We care less about academics'? Just awesome, we'll be going against him every year and possibly this October in Lincoln. If there's one good thing about this, it's that him and his talent will be shoved in our face every time we play them and maybe more people will get pissed off about it and request that we give kids the same chance other "like minded schools" are giving. Let's stop playing with one hand tied behind our back while throwing at a moving target that has the scoring lines drawn on after the darts are thrown. Ugh. Alabama would almost have been the lesser of two evils. The thing that really chaps me is that Jordan so badly wanted to be a Badger. He committed when we didn't have a coach. I believe he even got a Motion W tattoo. And now he's going to...Nebraska. A team we play every year. It's going to suck REALLY BAD if he becomes the next Montee Ball or Melvin Gordon. Maybe he will only be A mere Abdullah when Nebby plays Sconnie! I was over on buckyville reading some of this also. I usually only go to there leftover board the have some funny stuff on it. Anyway, some of them are kind of upset he didn't get into Whiskey while others are saying they won't lower their standards to let him in. etc. It is pretty well split from what I can tell. Whiskey grads to tend to think their degree is of a greater value than most and the definitely look down on Nebraska in that respect. Usually when fan forums start making these sorts of arguments it's all uniformed BS. With 300+, Nebraska has had more Academic All-Americans than anyone, by a healthy margin. ND and MIT the only other two schools to break 200. I'm not sure how many Academic All-Americans Wisconsin has in 2015, but in 2013 they had 34(!). Nebraska has had more than 100 on just the football team. Also as of 2013, WI did have an impressive streak of 34 consecutive years with at least one Academic All-American. That tied them with two other schools for second all time, trailing the top school with 42 consecutive years. That school? Nebraska. All that's not to say that Wisconsin isn't a very well regarded university, but Nebraska has a much, much better track record of academic excellence with their "student ath-O-letes," which is really all that is relevant to this sort of rationalizing. 4 Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Here are my conclusions I draw that most might agree with. 1. Ozigbo will RS 2. Cross will be Goal Line situation back. 3. 1 Back will have some sort of injury that takes their PT away. 4. Newby will be feature back to start with. 5. A young back will overtake that role eventually. 6. A young back will be disappointed in lack of PT and transfer. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 We apparently told Stevenson that he would come in and compete for playing time right away as only one RB currently on the roster had "proved himself" during spring ball. Quote Link to comment
