I think is very strange they didn’t pick up another back in the TP so with that non movement One of the filing is true:
1- they really thought they could get Robins to return and things ended up changing too late to pick any worthy backs up
2- Davis and/or Ropati have shown massive improvement and are now healthy and ready to be CFB RBs
3- The major reason for the lack of a running game was the OL… no tooling with a good RB room will fix anything
4- they have a ton of faith in this Reno Mahe RB Freshman also from Timp V
5- Coaches dropped the RB ball
It’s a combo of 1 and 3
