What's this?

Blackshear would be my pick

Chandler is pretty impressive. He consistently ran 10.8 100m in high school and did really well in the SEC on mediocre teams. He'll probably run wild in the coastal division.

Blackshear has put up some decent stats over his career and he had a couple of impressive plays last year. Herbert was the man last year but Blackshear could be the guy this year. King was pretty explosive a couple of years ago. I read that the coaches wanted to keep Burmeister healthy so let's hope they give more carries to the running backs.

Does VT have a RB that can compare to UNC's Ty Chandler? Hope so ----> -- VTVOICE 08/31/2021 11:37AM

Not worried about having a running back that can compete with him.... -- 83hokieee 09/01/2021 10:14AM

I would rather face him anytime versus Carter and Williams -- sacramento hokie 08/31/2021 8:33PM

Sometimes we shutdown those big RBs only to have their QB go wild in -- VTVOICE 08/31/2021 9:03PM

Blackshear would be my pick -- Flanker 08/31/2021 7:30PM

Any college RB that doesn't become a weight room warrior will not make NFL. ** -- UTPr0sim 08/31/2021 11:53AM

I don't want to downplay him because Chandler is a good RB, but he is -- IV_Hokie12 08/31/2021 11:39AM

You can bet the Cheat RB room is down from last year and WR as well. -- Wizk80 08/31/2021 2:34PM

The question is how much? They were at a very high level last year so -- VTVOICE 08/31/2021 2:45PM

Don’t be shocked if he goes for 150 or more ** -- Tombo 08/31/2021 2:15PM

Even with their starting receivers out? ** -- AirborneHokie 08/31/2021 5:58PM

In a word, "yes." ** -- Tombo 08/31/2021 8:09PM

‘On Friday, North Carolina rushed for 146 yards. No back had more than 66’ ** -- AirborneHokie 09/04/2021 09:21AM

Does Holston catch passes and return kickoffs? What about King? ** -- VTVOICE 08/31/2021 11:49AM

I'll put it another way. I don't think our talent in the RB room is -- IV_Hokie12 08/31/2021 11:51AM

Yes rb is not a position that worries me.. ** -- capitals1 08/31/2021 12:56PM

In terms of VT or in this game? Khalil Herbert sure worried opponents. ** -- VTVOICE 08/31/2021 2:48PM

Im saying I think we are fine at the rb position ** -- capitals1 08/31/2021 11:29PM

Thanks ... not arguing. I am just saying "Heads-Up". :-) ** -- VTVOICE 08/31/2021 11:54AM
