A couple occasions?? He looked like dynamite every time he got on the field. Owen Johnson is the future at RB. He is the fastest RB on the team, and he is nearly impossible for one guy to bring down. Remains to be seen what kind of pass receiver he will be.
I watched an interview he did where he said they had him at WR as a freshman. Apparently the hands are good.

Updated my depth chart with a few changes. Still some uncertainty with the OL. GoBison lists G Zabel as a guard, M Miller as a tackle, T Fraley as a center. Interesting, thought they moved Miller to guard last year cuz he struggled with the quickness on the outside. Things could get shuffled again in fall. Makes sense to have Poncius as a backup. No depth there. We should go after the UND starter in the portal. Great opportunity for a Hegerle/Collins to step up and give us a bigger receiver.
Need some backups on defense (dline especially) to take that next step. Would love to have Zenzen be a force opposite of Hendricks. Expect a lot of guys to play on DL. Weerts/Kubitz both listed as starters as they fit different personnel groupings.

Miller wasn't participating (was working on the side in gym clothes with the S&C coaches) but Zabel was lining up at LT with the 1s in their practice last Saturday.
really hoping to see someone at RB really step up and separate from the others. kpeenu and TK were both solid at times last year but I'd really feel better if we could get one guy to have a John Crockett kind of season.

I think with TP taking over, you're going to see a lot more power and pin/pull. Crockett murdered when he could get a full head of steam out of single back or the eye formation with his shoulders square to the line of scrimmage. We have a stable, albeit unproven, but given the chance to get in a rhythm and we may see some fireworks. However, for that to come to fruition the o-line needs to show up and start road grading people. For both of these things to happen, we need a shift in mentality. Polasek brings a different energy. He'll have the boys ready to run through a brick wall.
This is not 'Nam. This is Bisonville. There are rules here.
