And why would you pass over Skip for this guy? questionable. :shocked:

[BountyHunter]

Went to App State , played for the Redskins, Lives in NC, and is RB coach for Wisconsin. Other than that I've got nothing.

Wisconsin has had a juggernaut running game for the last season and a half or so, fwiw.

Oline is part of it but they have 3 reeeeeeally good backs. Hard running, hard to bring down, dependable production.

Yes. There are more successful candidates than this guy.
