I am not ruling out the fact he can't be productive but the guy has not played a full year in 3 years by the time we get to the fall. He played a lot in his freshman season in 02 backing up Cedric. Since then he has had hamstring trouble in 03 and then the knee injury he suffered at Arkansas last year. Not to mention that he is not involved in spring drills since he has had the issues with his classes. Of course I hope he comes in and tears it up but this is not a given by any means. The Horns have quite a few strengths going into this year but at this point in time it doesn't really appear to me that running back is one of them. Maybe that will change.
