I think this is a pretty good assesment. There's also no guarantee Dixon is going to beat out Leaf again this year.

From the original list IU's Blake Powers has also shifted to TE this spring. I don't know if this will be reflected in the game though.

Colt McCoy 90 OVR

My best estimate is that Stripling will be the starter and Allen will share carries. Stripling would probably be rated around 85 overall. Anthony Allen is a very big, powerful runner and is very similar to Mike Bush. I'll be able to give some more solid information after I watch Louisville's first official scrimmage this Thursday night and things should really be sorted out by the time I attend the Spring Game on Friday, April 20th. I would also guess that Brock Bolen would be listed as a fullback on this years game and he'd be rated 85+, too.

After almost two weeks of practices and two full scrimmages it is apparent that Anthony Allen will be the starting tailback in Kragthorpe's offense. Brock Bolen and Sergio Spencer will also be sharing carries in the running back by committee.

George Stripling is dropping like a rock on the depth charts. I'm not sure what the deal is... but he is seeing very limited (if any) carries. Stripling is probably the fastest back on the roster but he has been a non-factor all spring. It is surprising that Louisville native Sergio Spencer has surpassed him on the depth chart. Last year, Sergio was the 5th string running back.


I guess that I would rate Allen an 85 OVR. Stripling should be rated near there because of his past experience and his AWR should be higher than the other Louisville running backs... but I'm not sure how high EA would rate a fourth-string running back.

I can't wait until the Louisville Spring Game this Friday night.

Somehow Brad Lester has been left off the running back list...

This kid is a touchdown machine, and most people forget he started ahead of Kenny Irons as freshman until he got hurt...

this kid will definitely be an 85+

That seems optimistic for a kid who had 510 yards rushing.

as a backup behind a future NFL running back...

oh and he finished second in the conference in rushing touchdowns... as a backup...

and averaged 5 yars per carry...

Call me a homer all you want, but this kid is 85+.

Keller should be at least 90. Last year he was 92 for ASU.
