As long as Cook is at FSU they have the best backfield

Jeez...
I just noticed that we were 13/14 (just ahead of Wake) in total team rushing yards in the ACC.
That's pretty terrible.

We solid at RB, but I wouldn't claim the best at anything now. We simply have to show what we got on the field. I do expect we'll be a lot better at all aspects of the game next year. Clemson, NC (if they can maintain) and then FSU out front now. Houston showed you that FSU ain't all that.

Don't sleep on Pitt either with Conner potentially coming back (think I saw he was running already or something, which is remarkable)

That'll happen when you have to run behind players like Alex Gall.

I think Homer has elite top speed. But, he's a freshman.

Walton is elite and catching passes out of the backfield but I see your point none the less

That running back from usf Marlon Mack is better than any running back we have on the roster IMO, great size and speed. We do have a talented backfield that is 5 deep not many teams have that or can compete with yearby, Edwards, Walton, gray and homer. Clemson and Fsu has the best starting back but Miami is deeper at the position

When I think of elite I think they have to either be a homerun threat or run with power. McGahee had both but having at least one trait should be a requirement.

Walton proved that he is elite in space. He had some truly eye opening runs called back. Brother Richt got dis mane.

A lot of the rushing stats can be blamed on the oline. We obviously don't have a Cook type back, but yearby and Walton catch the ball better than a lot of college receivers.
Poor run blocking mixed with suspect play calling, your run game will be hampered. It does not help having the turnstile(Gall) blocking either.
