And some posters thought it ok to wait until 2024 to sign a top tier RB. SMH

I don't think our coaches wanted to wait until 2024.

Unfortunately we just aren't having much success on the recruiting trail lately with RBs.

Not since Shipley and Mafah we haven't brought in anyone considered to be a big time back, and Kobe leaving isn't making any sense to me bc of how RBs get beat up during a season, it seems that there should be plenty of carries for 3 backs, especially if one has an extended injury.
Maybe he feels that with Cade being the starter next season, and with the receivers we're recruiting and the few good ones we have, he thinks we going to try and get back to being WRU again, but I honestly don't see that happening unless Jeff Scott comes back and helps out with our WR's, and I would personally love that, Jeff Scott helping out with our WR's. The best WR's we've had, Jeff Scott was their coach!!!

If we are not going to use the portal, ok, but you have to be putting out more offers. We need to cast a wider net.

No need for DP to do anything unless Dabo decides to use the portal. DP is an easy target but it not his decision in terms of our using the portal.

Shipley 2021
149 carries for 739 yards (5.0 yards/carry), 11 TDs, long 42 yards 16 catches for 116 yards (7.3 yards/catch), 0 TDs, long 19 yards

That’s the statistics game I don’t like people playing
Dec 5, 2022, 1:09 PM

Those statistics are meaningless without context.
Did Pace put up those numbers in garbage time? Maybe he got the ball more against lesser opponents when Shipley was on the bench saving him for bigger games.
There are a lot of different scenarios that can account for those numbers.
I have heard people say DJ is a better runner than Watson and Lawrence, which is utterly ridiculous, but they used statistics to prove it. Of course when you dig deeper you realize those statistics are nonsense. But without context through the first eight games of this season people could make a statistical argument that DJ was the better runner.
They say you can prove anything with statistics. But that’s actually a load of crap. Smart people know to look at the raw data, as well as to put those statistics into context. Because otherwise they’re meaningless.

He's leaving because he's clearly third on the depth chart behind Shipley and Mafah, and wants to play more.
He isn't scared of competition from incoming recruits.

And he is good enough to start somewhere. Pace is too good a back to be 3rd string. Completely understandable move.

Mafah isnt all that impressive from a NFL lens and would be a late round grab at best. He's a solid bruiser back with avg speed. He's a 4 year guy with a slim chance of a NFL career.
Shipley can certainly go but he will need a superstar year to be a 1st rounder.

Shipley isn’t going to leave after next season either. Running back is the hardest position in the nfl.

I am curious. What kind of running back do y'all think we could get through the portal when our very good 3rd stringer is leaving because he is not getting enough carries.

IMO, that’s a very good question to which the answer probably is one we won’t like. Whoever gets Pace will be getting a good back. Doubtful we get anybody better than him (probably not even as good as him) in the exchange. Lots of ?’s to be sure.

Are you trying yo be funny?? Most schools only use their 3rd back as mop up time anyway. Pace is a legitimate back that needs to play and it was not going to happen with 26 and 1 around. If he had not decided to move on, Adams would have. I do not think anyone other than the staff realizes what we have in him---stay tuned.

I had a feeling on this one. He was healthy last two games and received little playing time. He was essentially alternate first string to start the season. A BIG loss concerning depth.

Koby is too good to not play. He needs to transfer as he can start or get significant playing time at other places.

This is what I consider a no brainer transfer. He's good, good enough to start at many P5 schools; but he wasn't taking many carries from the other two. I'd love to see his style at Wisco or a Big 10 type school as he's a really good fit for that. Wish him luck.

I wish him the best. I guess he saw himself as third on the depth chart behind Ship and Mafa and figured minimal or limited playing time next year….can’t blame him in today’s world of college football. I hope he lands better than Lynn J did.

Sorry to see him go and I wish him (and all the others) the best of success, but it really doesn't surprise me based on his dwindling number of carries. As many of you said - the real issue here is us being willing to use the portal ourselves to upgrade in needed areas.

Please provide the names of your top portal RBs and why they would come here to sit behind Shipley and Mafah. Or do you think there are lots of guys better than Pace in there that will beat out 1 and 26?
