I read the article this morning in the CL about the team. It turns out that Ducre has been demoted to 3rd string back.

In my observation, he is the best back we have. He runs with more attitude and desire than Dixon for sure.

Your thoughts?

The running back that does not miss running lanes that can be seen from outer space has been demoted. I honestly am starting to think that crxxm is trying to lose games.

stupid crap that Croom does. His assessment of offensive talent never ceases to amaze me. Maybe Ducre isn't "practicing" very well.

Ducre is just a smarter running back than Dixon, and that's what makes him look better sometimes. However, Dixon does a ton in pass protection, which is probably why he's the starter. However, Im not a fan of naming 2nd and 3rd when you have two solid backs... just decide what situation you'll use both of them in and prepare them for that. That seems to make sense to me

our coach throws his players under the bus to the media as a way to motivate them. It has worked great so far this year.
