While I don't think our RB position is our weakest, they are defiantly alot younger than in years past, but I think the talent is there and will surprise alot of people. With that said, I do think our interior linemen is one of the strongest areas on our team. All three returning starters, Ethan Wolford at Center and Dagan Rash and Keaton Thacker at Guards will provide plenty of running room up the middle for our young RB's. And on the outside we'll be just as good with returning starter Austin Lawson and Logan Arbogast filling the other Tackle spot. Most RB's in Kentucky would love to be able to run behind an experienced line like we'll field this year. So I think our RB's will be just fine. Don't get me wrong, you can't replace a Derek Wellman or Taveon Hunter. Those two were beasts. But as good as they were they wouldn't have gained a single yard without good line play. The Hogs up front is where the game is won and lost, IMO. So I think we'll be just fine.
