No surprise but deeply disappointing to have the lack of rushing production in year 5 for Sark.
Sark, Flood, Becton and Choice failed Texas.
Excellent detailed work CJ!!!
4 year players Hutson, Robertson, Neto and DJ didn't develop into an IOL group that can successfully run block. 4 years is plenty of time to develop fundamentals, techniques, explosiveness, more size/strength, better push and cohesion to run block effectively. Becton, Flood and Sark didn't succeed with OL. TEs have not been good run blockers over the past 5 years. Becton, Banks and Sark need to do better with TE run blocking. All our good Herman/Drayton RBs are gone. Drayton recruited maybe 5 RBs that went on to get drafted including two that were the first running backs taken in the draft. We converted a tweener to RB out of necessity. Without Wisner, we would have next to nothing at RB. Choice didn't evaluate RBs well enough imo. We had 2 RBs coming back from serious injury. We didn't hit the portal for a RB like we should have. Missouri is #1 in rushing and they hit the portal for RB Hardy. Our RB woes are mainly on Choice and Sark.
Our OL & RB personnel, development, coaching and rushing attack came up woefully short this season. Sark and others did not recognize the urgent need and potential to get a starting portal RB along with upgrading our IOL.
Pathetic rushing attack this season along with poor pass blocking in many of the earlier games. This is year 5 for Sark, Flood and Becton yet we waisted Arch's first season as a starter.
Going forward changes need to happen. We are not on the right track as a rushing offense.
