Appears to be an issue with only 2 healthy backs, one of which we pulled a RS off of just to be able to spell Custer. I hope TP is able to go soon. Other than him I’m not sure we have another player on scholarship. Anyone know why that promising Freshman whose name I cannot recall left the program?

I was also wondering what happened to Isaiah Lewis #48. Micah Smith #16, redshirt freshman played against Idaho and ran well, caught a pass, and looked good. I think only Custer and Perreiah played yesterday.

I don't know the answer to why we aren't seeing the other guys, but my hunch is Perriah has just beaten them out. Frankly, it seem like Eastern is better offensively with a bruiser at RB. We saw it with McPherson last year, and I think Silas is the heir apparent to that role. I hope some of these other guys develop quickly. But if not, we just need both Custer and Silas to stay healthy as they make a pretty good thunder and lightning tandem.
It also makes a ton of difference when the OL takes care of their business. They did yesterday, but hadn't looked good until then.

There was some serious holes made by that OLine on multiple occasions. Moreso than I've seen thus far. This team is hard to get a bead on. We should be pretty darn good and show signs here and there and I sure can't figure it out. I get the feeling after last season coaches saw what we are capable of doing this year and looked to tweak some things to get more outta this team and almost changed style of play on both sides of the ball. Looks awkward and stiff like doing something new or different that's not working right....weird.
