[Husker] Depth Chart

[Andy Knipp]

Very true, I had forgotten to mention that as well. Yes, Lucky is the top returing RB in the B12. But we will have to see how the season goes. UT will have another horse, OU has a very good OL, so whoever plays there will do well. ML has a solid career in the NFL as a 3rd down back. He has not shown that he can be an every down back, running between the tackles is a typical requirement for an every down back. :-)

It will be interesting to see how the year shakes out.

I'm surprised more people aren't talking about Roy Helu being "co-#1 I-Back".  Marlon Lucky does a few things really, really well, but he's never been a complete back IMHO.  Helu might be that complete back, and I wouldn't be surprised if Helu doesn't end up playing more snaps at I-back this fall than Lucky.  (Lucky may see more total snaps, because you can line him up in the slot as well and really wreak some havoc with opposing defenses.)
