I dont think so. I can't actually remember who the backs were after Polk, but I don't think they were one of the big factors leading to owen.DerekJohnson said:If the freshman Chris Polk doesn't get hurt and plays significant minutes in 2008, do the Dawgs avoid Owen?

Freshman Polk ran like a scarred pussy.
@iDawg and @RaceBannon had a podcast about his scarred running before he got hurt.

He had barely played, but Polk was playing soft his first couple of games as a freshmen. Some thought he was more of wr. Something obviously clicked from then to his R-fr season.

He played more receiver than running back in HS iirc and was a speed guy. He wasn't fast enough to be thst guy in college and needed time to develop. Had no business starting in 2008. -
didn't his mom make a comment about playing time or some such thing?

Started at Oregon as a RB the first game of 08 as a freshman. Got hurt in the game. Everyone thought he medically redshirted but found out late in 2011 no one filed the proper paperwork IICR.
