Could next year be the best RB core

Clemson has ever had
1. Gallman
2. Brooks
3. Choice
4. Feaster
5. Fuller
I think at least 3 of these guys play in the NFL

I'm excited to see just how much Gallman can improve. He separated himself this year for sure. I think Feaster and Choice start contributing at some point next year also.

If we're not splitting hairs between RB and FB, Chad Diehl was on that 2008 roster as well.

Ellington only played with Spiller for one season in '09. Harper did play with both.

It might be the best for sheer volume, but we have had some very talented running backs from "back in the day" that I think would compare very well. in no particular order,
Lester Brown
Terrence Flagler
Kenny Flowers
Terry Allen
Chuck McSwain
Kevin Mack
Anyone remember the big fullback from way back, Marvin Sims? I believe he never had a carry for loss his entire career.
Not even counting the recent ones like James Davis and CJ, Reggie Merriweather, Andre Ellington, etc.

The point he is making is not that these are all the best RBs in Clemson history, he saying that all these good RBs are on the same team (in the same year).

I believe we will have some attrition at RB. 2 of the following 3 will redshirt IMO. If they don't, they will be buried on the depth chart with Feaster coming in next year.
Dye
Fuller
Choice (most likely)

Dye and Fuller have already redshirted, and I'm pretty sure that Choice is redshirting this year.

1983 was better...
Stacy Driver
Kevin Mack
T. Flagler
Kenny Flowers
Braxton Williams
Rod Quick
Mack and Flagler played in the NFL, Flowers was probably the best but had a major knee injury as a Junior.
