This the time of year where we hope our players with great athletic traits get it right between the ears. I miss football.

So many backs I don’t understand how you keep them happy. Our new RB coach better have a sports Psychology degree.

This. Amazing problem to have but I have no clue how they’ll do this. Hopefully we are up so much end of each first half that they allow Fletcher to rest and then the committee gets their carries.

I truly am shocked that when Fletcher came back nobody left
I could easily see him being RB1 for a bunch of games next year. Fletcher has nothing to prove and we'll want to preserve him for the postseason.

Given Fletcher’s personality, he was probably a driving factor in getting everyone to stay

There was a reason he started game 1. He earned it in practice. The Lyle vs pringle battle will be a fun one to watch in the Spring. One of them won't be happy

ehhh, in most of those games Lyle only got 1 or 2 carries and as we all know, most RBs need a few runs before they truly get going. Lyle never got those opportunities like Fletcher did.
Also, how come we're omitting the USF game when Lyle went 6 for 104 (17.3 avg)? That's 2 games that year where Lyle went for over 100 yds (in 7 and 6 carries respectively) when Fletcher didn't do it once.
And i'm a HUGE fletcher fan btw; he's an amazing Cane. But to say Lyle being RB1 was "disrespectful" to Fletcher based off what they both did in 2024 and what the coaches saw behind the scenes during practice, it's not fair either. JMO.
