    Makes the long of list of Stanford running back success stories in the NFL.

    1) Christian McCaffrey

    2) Who?

    I thought Toby Gerhart was going to be something.
    I was more of a Tommy Vardell guy myself.

    NFL teams don't line up with three tight ends and a tackle at fullback

    He was good.

    He got injured badly in the big game with uw.

    They made the injury permanent by doping him up so he could play the second half iirc.

    Bad call. Cost him potentially millions of dollars. He was never the same.

    For his sake and doogs everywhere I wish Shaw would have sat him. Cost us? the revenge game against Darnold.

    2 loss UW doesn't get into the game. Conference wasn't as bad that year as people think, it's just that the South was horrible.

    Shittiest of the 3 Norte teams went to the Pac12 Championship game.

    What went wrong? Being a fucking running back.

    Worst position easily

    Yeah, as a general rule, a big-time highly productive college running back has about the same probability of having a decent career in the NFL as a UDFA running back from a non p5 school that didn't do shit in college
    A RB shouldn’t want to be a workhorse for more than one season in college. Split carries the first two years, break out junior year, go pro. They can only take so many hits until they get slower or are chronically injured.
    Myles should have left his junior year

    Fullback. At least most teams regularly rotate at least two RBs, so plenty of jobs out there.

    workhorse is okay ... to a degree.

    but fucking medicating and covering up a serious injury in order to play 2 quarters and incurring even more difficult repair/rehab .... is stupid.

    Mortgaging your entire future for 2 quarters is not worth it. but I guess thanks to Allah for that Stanford degree.
