E.J. Smith is expected to be one of the top running backs in the nation in 2022; he wasted no time in living up to that billing Saturday. | From @ToddBrock24f7

Etienne might be our best back...him and Johnson looked like the 1-2 guys last night IMO got to hold onto that ball though.

Is Lingard hurt? He had been talked about as part of a 4-man rotation and last night we only used 3 guys.

I don't think so and I doubt the 4th guy gets many carries this season. Etienne on a few of those runs looks like he is the real deal. He has to protect the football though. I am curious to see how many carries Etienne will be getting by the end of the season.

Tbh I’m good with those 3

Good for Emmitt’s son. As for UF Lingard is 4th string and with AR getting carries in this offense I doubt we see much of him unless one of Wright, Johnson or ETN get hurt.

I think Lingard was in for one snap, on the last play of the game in victory formation. I think he got the message his coaches sent him. He'll get his chance soon.

Could be wrong but I doubt he gets many carries short of an injury. I think the issue is like Miami said that he has speed but runs too stiff to be real good against good defenses. I guess Napier is aware of social media as RB is the only position on the depth chart showing 4 players now.

Another possibility is that, if you are planning to use three in the game, if somebody gets hurt early you might go down to a #4 guy, so you have that spot identified.
