Is Homer the guy or will Lingard pass him?

I dunno man, DJ looked better than Homer at times. I can't tell if it's because our OL sucks that much, the passing sucks so no one respects the run, or if Homer isn't RB1.

Homer is good and runs physical. Personally I like the way deejay dallas runs as well too. We will be very talented at running back next year
 
Homer lacks vision and wiggle. He’ll prob still be number 1 but it’ll def be by committee next year

This. I don't think anybody is passing anybody next year. Look at how Georgia runs the ball with 2,3, and 4 talented backs. I suspect that's what we'll see going forward. Homer will probably be the "starter" I guess, but every healthy RB on the roster will play significant time next year.
 
i think homer well start the year but eventually lingard well pass him up
 
Homer is a perfect back when the defense is tired in the 2nd half. Lingard is a special talent who will be the starter. Lingard, Homer, DJ, and Cam Davis is a great group who all have different strengths. Much deeper group than this year.
 
Homer will be the guy - Lingard will get burn unless Robert Burns steps up and stays healthy to allow them to bring Lingard along slowly. You need 2 RBs at minimum to keep them fresh in today's uptempo game.

DJ adds another dimension, but he is not a RB. He's not built like one and i have concerns he would hold up over an entire season. But he is a tremendous athlete and should be treated as one in many forms - wildcat, RB, WR, flanker runs, screens, etc. Let him touch the ball 10 times a game in various forms and see what he can do.

If Lingard is a legit 5* talent he should blow by every RB on our roster this spring.
 
It will be homer the other guys aren't proven and idc where we line up at just get him on the field
 
I think we're going to rotate a lot. Homer has earned his keep. That boy lays the wood. He picked up some excellent blocks last night and lowered the boom on a few runs.

If he’s not healthy time to send him to kiffen or Davis

He will not pass homer but will get his share of carries to keep everyone fresh..Miami will not bring along slowly he’s an EE so by fall he should have this simple playbook down
 
I think we’ll see a trio of Homer, Lingard, and Dallas next year and he uses them the way UGA uses their backs.
 
Thomas Brown doesn't really rotate guys. I would guess Homer and Lingard are 1-2, with Deejay back at receiver and wildcat. Davis redshirt.
