Pick Six Previews has the TCU running back room as number 14 in the Big XII. I assume that is because they are largely unknown versus the talent level.
Hoover is the clear #1 right now. But he has a ways to go to get where they were expecting him to be. That’s not to say he’s been awful, just still making a few freshman mistakes and kicking off some post-surgery rust.
I don’t quite have your level of confidence, but am very hopeful.
Unless the o-line gels, running may more about survival for our QBs and less of an ‘option’
This^ I said that all season last year. It was like he was going to be punished if he ran past the los. There were times he had wide open field, would run, get to the los and just pull up and then frantically look around for someone to throw to. The seat neighbors around me and I would talk about it all the time. Then, can't remember what game it was, towards the end of the year, he started taking off and it worked wonders. Its like Briles said, "what the hell, what have we got to lose? Go ahead and run."
We didn’t wait too long, we basically didn’t do it all. At least not planned.
There is no reason to save anyone for anything or worry about getting anyone hurt anymore. Empty the tank every year. Play your best players, and use em up. Next year will be an entirely different team, nobody knows who will want to stick around. Rinse and repeat.
You're not thinking in terms of Fall camp-speak. We have great competition between three QBs that it's very difficult to separate from each other because they are all equally ready.
