We've got Mixon and Perine for one more year, DOUBTFULLY 2. Brooks for 1 more, then he's gone. I won't even count Ross because he... well... just yeah... I won't count him.
So the breakdown...
2016: Mixon, Perine, Brooks, Anderson, Adams (if he doesn't redshirt)
2017: Anderson, Adams, ?????
Am I forgetting anyone?
Do we really expect to get by in 2017 with just 2 RB's? This is absolutely insane to me. Can't believe we didn't give Whaley more time to make his decision... just doesn't make any sense.
My only thought is that the coaches must feel INCREDIBLY good about a couple elite 2017 backs to not be getting another one with this class.
