All of a sudden we are EXTREMELY thin in the running back room. Marshall has been absolute stud the last two weeks, runs decisive and very hard. Castle, Haywood, and Calhoun were already out, and Kanye went down yesterday. Any updates on Kanye’s injury? It didn’t look good. On a short week, and with JMU and Southern looming, we will need all hands on deck. Any updates on our backs and when we can expect some of them back?
GO APPS!!
We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

Re: RB Room
I would take Clark's post-game comments about injury status with little seriousness. He has a history of not being truthful or not knowing the full extent of injuries.

Re: RB Room
Things do tend to be worse than the initial comments after games. I don't know if he is not being truthful or just trying to be positive. There is one thing I do know for sure. Shawn is coaching scared even more than usual so he is definitely feeling the pressure. I am sure he is stressing out these days.

Re: RB Room
The silver lining is that this has forced us to rely on a single back and it has produced good results. Hoping everyone else gets healthy soon and the coaches have seen the benefit of letting a back get into the rhythm of the game.

Re: RB Room
Yes, Coach said he is out this week. Calhoun is out for the season. I thought we might see Alexander Saturday . Maybe Thursday. Maybe not. I remember Settle , Hooks , Richardson and others basically carrying the entire load. Rare these days but perhaps a necessity.
