Does anyone know why Rendrick Taylor would be red-shirted this year?

Another one of our best players goes down. Every practice we lose a star player.

Jamie Harper is hardly a star player...

not saying he won't be, or that he hasn't had an impressive August camp, but he has never even laced it up for a game at Clemson and has two NFL'ers ahead of him... something tells me we'll be okay.

the coaches want a veteran RB back next year to work with Harper and Ellington. He wouldn't get many, if any touches, this year, so it makes sense for him to come back next year instead.

he will have his first career carry as RB next season so that's a veteran? I know he is in terms of game experience but certainly not at RB. That one has puzzled me.

I'm guessing J.Harper's gonna redshirt as well...

...and next season, Taylor will be throwing down blocks for him as he heads for the endzone.
With Taylor's massive size and speed, he should've been racking up blocks or tackles by the boatload. I don't know why he's been moved around to receiver and runningback... that's just not the kind of position I would've imagined. Is it only because that's what he wanted.

Harper will not red shirt, will be in for short yardage, just my thinking!
