Um is Castle going to possibly be an X factor this year? Seems to run really hard. I’ve always wished we had a few bruising type guys who can wear down a defense with 4 yard carries..repeatedly

Exactly this could definitely be our red zone behind the chains guy. Like his energy

Seems like we could use him in short yardage. It hard to fit in a 4th RB into rotation.

He’s definitely got the size right? Love to see a local kid out there.

Don’t count out the possibility of Harrington being available at some point.

Castle had a great day. Offense looked pretty sharp considering how good the D is. O-line is shaping up nicely. The guys were getting after it and playing hard. September 2nd can't get here fast enough!

He reminds me of Scott McConnell. In uniform he looks and runs just like him.
If he can keep that up he'll definitely be a factor unless he's redshirted.
We don't slide at Appalachian State. It's a sign of weakness.

He is valuable on ST. Too many mouths to feed under normal game situations to see him get enough touches.

I think I saw a lot of Jahmir Smith in the highlights too. Seems like he is a bruiser as well.

I was actually counting our big three as Peoples, Noel, and Harrington. Forgot about Smith and haven't noticed him in videos or heard much about him so far.

Got it. Smith has RB1 potential, according to the coaches.

To build off your comment, he should play here. Not because he came from Norte Dame, but because he saw the field as a RB for them. He didn’t get a lot of carries, but the fact that he saw the field tells me that he has the talent to compete.

I hope he doesn't fumble like McConnell was prone to do.....sorry Scot.

Sounds like Michael Hughes is pushing Staton for PK duties.

I love the dad-wave at the beginning.

Brice seems real accurate, solid stuff.
