Randy Sanders on freshmen running backs
Kentucky offensive coordinator Randy Sanders is counting on freshman running backs Dyshawn Mobley and Justin Taylor, who both weigh about 220 pounds, to give UK a new dimension this season.
“They are both, big physical guys. From what I saw today (in Saturday’s scrimmage), usually when they hit in there, the pile falls back,” said Sanders. “You didn't see them getting knocked back.
“It will be interesting to see how much better they are in the next scrimmage from what they were this scrimmage. The first scrimmage it is always a case with me that running backs you work on their footwork and everything else and they get out here and start running and they usually just take off. They are not executing their reads. They are just running like they always have.
“Once they get disciplined and really executing their footwork, they get better. And these two guys have the talent and strength to really do some different things for our offense.”

Re: Randy Sanders on freshmen running backs
I've been fooled a thousand times, but I am all in again thinking we are going to be better than expected.

Re: Randy Sanders on freshmen running backs
I guess I fall somewhere between "thinking" we will be better than expected, and just "hoping" we will. I call it optimistic, until results on the field prove me wrong. It helps my excitement level to be optimistic, doesn't cost anything, and can be extremely rewarding when results prove it right.
But at this moment, I can't say I'm more than optimistic. Let's see what happens vs Louisville and maybe we'll all have a great season.
