Mike have you heard an update on RWIII future?

Nothing from the university. Just the tweet from Rawleigh.

The Hogs have about 750 yards of proven depth behind RWIII. The potential is there with who we have got but that's all it is at this point.

that's not bad.  we will miss RW3's physical run style, like we missed Jwill's, but we still have some good talent to work with.  Whaley is the real deal, and Maleek looks pretty fast.  That's not even counting Hammonds.

If I had to guess, we will see RW3 back.

I feel the same way...

Prayers continued for RWIII!

Whaley steps up to primary, a new Williams steps in at #2, Juan Day gets his chance, T.J. Hammonds will wind up getting more snaps whether split out or in the backfield and Chase Hayden gets a stronger evaluation in the Summer. We will miss RWIII's experience, character and attitude, but others will be called upon to step up their game.

So does the plan stay the same with TJ as a Kenyon Drake type player and Juan Day get's the 3rd pure rb spot, or does TJ get reeled back in as the 3rd while still practicing alittle bit a wr?

I sincerely hope RWIII feels good enough to play again but doesn't.  This Kid needs the opportunity live a normal life.

I remember the JWill injury and how many, including myself, didn't believe it would make a huge difference in the RB department.  Well, in my opinion now, it did make a bid difference.  RWIII will be greatly missed.  We don't currently have an experienced Collins on this team to fill the void like we did  for JWill.   We got prospects, excellent prospects.  Whaley should be a great starter but beyond that, we got nothing absolute.  Hammonds should be lightening in a bottle but his development so far hasn't been there.  We seem to be able to build one RB per season.  Last year it was Whaley.  We can hope another RB steps up quickly to assist Whaley.  Which RB can get 3 yards on 3rd & 3 or 4th & 3.  This loss hurts this team likely more than the JWill loss hurt that team.  Nothing but GOOD LUCK for RWIII but I do not wish that he comes back to football unless its as a coach at some level.  GO HOGS.


Enos I hope will re-arrange the O to fit what we got to go to battle with and I am sure he will try.  He has the Summer to think that through.

Unfortunately his summer will be shorter this year because under new rules, fall camp begins in July.

Smart recruiting on Coach Bielema's part.
