Can bielema produce a talented backfield like nutt year in and out?

We're running back U, didn't you know that? Before Nutt and after Nutt!
Always. 7 All Americans, 10 All SWC's and 5 All SEC's in the last 60.

Nutt had very little to do with the great running backs we've had and the success some of them had.

I have faith that BB in the HC role will get great RBs, develop them properly and use them to their full potential.

Running Back UUUUUUUU...WPS

[Tejas_Pete]

Nutt lucked into some RB's like McFadden and Hillis. He also had no passing game so running numbers were gonna look good.

I am skeptical of BB, but pulling in Alex Collins was impressive and the line he is building combined with an efficient passing game should produce running results far better than Nutt.

Bielema and Pittman are nationally recognized for developing Olineman and Running Backs.   Bielema and Pittman are building the Olines that will attract great skill players.

Good....These threads are still unbearable.

It's hard to imagine a better backfield the the best one in NCAA history but if you are talking about Win and Loses then I'm positive that his backfield will produce as much or more.

Do you really believe that Nutt had the best backfield in NCAA history?

You must have confused what I said, I didn't say Nutt coached the best backfield in history.

Yes, at the college they were the best to me and a lot of people.  If your not a fan then you thinking just one of the best is fine.  Anything less than that, well...

It should certainly rank in the top 5 imo....

It would certainly be hard to find one team that produced three at the same time, all in the league going into their seventh season and all three having produced 1000 yd years.  Individually, yes they would all be way down the list in the NFL.  However at the college level DMac would rank pretty high.

I think Barry Sanders and Thurman Thomas was the best in college history, just ahead of USC Heisman winners White and Allen. Best triple threat imo would be Portis, Gore, and McGahee

The best in SEC history would be interesting choice-
Alabama- Mark Ingram, Trent Richardson and Lacy
Arkansas- DMAC, F. Jones, Hillis
Auburn- Cadillac, Ronnie Brown, Brandon Jacobs
LSU- Jimmy Taylor, Johnny Robinson and Billy Cannon
Tennessee- Jamal Lewis, Travis Henry, Travis Stephens
Georgia- Hershel Walker and whatever Fullbacks he had

Won't argue with your opinion, it's yours.  How many of those groups were drafted or signed with a team the same year?

[razorbackfanatic]

Build a dominate OL and guys like Michael Jenkins, Alvin Ray, Kyle Dickerson, etc could have 1,000 yard rushing seasons. Now build a dominate OL and guys like Alex Collins, JWill who have already ran for a 1,000 or 900+ with a young OL that only had one spring and summer in Herbs program, will be Doak Walker finalists. Add top notch QB recruits like Storey and Peavey and things are getting exciting!

These were very good.  It seemed Henry hurt us more than Lewis.

I think Bielema can do a better job of attracting backs from outside of Arkansas and even region to Arkansas which increases our recruiting pool.  RB's is something the state of Arkansas has produced for decades.

What happened to the Modify feature?
