| I hate that he's getting to showcase his skills because of injuries but I'm glad that he'll make other teams have to think about UM having multiple solid options at RB.
Next year UM could have a serious 4 headed monster when Isaac gets eligible. Of course the O line is the wildcard.

| When Isaac was coming out of HS, wasn't he being looked at for both sides of the ball? Michigan might be better served playing him on defense. _________________ | |

I'd have to go back and look but I followed his recruitment pretty well and I don't remember UM recruiting him to play D. He was being recruited to play RB and that's it.

| It doesn't hurt to have two quality backs. | |

| Still can't figure how Drake was only a three star.
1. Had 2805 rush yards (8.17 per carry) and 37 TDs his senior year. 95 yds shy of the state rush record.
2. 2011 Detroit Free Press Dream Team
3. Detroit News Blue Chip List senior year
4. unanimous selction to 2011 AP All-State team
5. 2012 MHSFCA East-West All-Star Game
6. All American 110 meter hurdles
7. Two state titles in 110 meter hurdles
8. Two state titles for indoor 60 meter hurdles
9. Anchor on the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP shuttle hurdle
This kid reeks of athletic awesomeness. I'm glad he runs for us.

| It didn't hurt to have a team with a poor D down to a third-string qb. It was Indiana, folks. | |

Drake Johnson, Ty Isaac, Derrick Green, De'Veon Smith, Justice Hayes That's a lot of talent, and while that isn't a bad thing, but it'd be nice to fill two holes rather than just one. _________________ | |

| Five RBs is a pretty standard roster. I don't know that we've seen much production at all from the current group of RBs to think we have an abundance of talent. The Drake Johnson story was nice, but it was against one of the worst defenses in college FB. I think we'll need all the help we can get at RB next year. | |
