Georgia is once in great shape when it comes to the running back position, with the return of Zamir White, James Cook, Kenny McIntosh and Kendall Milton.
After Tuesday’s practice, Milton, a sophomore out of California, spoke with reporters about the stable of backs returning to Athens for the 2021 season.
And he made one thing clear – Georgia is RBU.
“This is Georgia; this is RBU. So, I feel like the run game is always going to play a part in the offense,” Milton said in a post-practice Zoom call Tuesday. “But we’re an offense that has a lot of weapons all over the field. With all those weapons, everybody wants to get the ball. So, you’ve got to make the scheme basically where it fits everybody.”
Last season, White led the way with 779 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns, and is expected to be the lead back again this year. Milton, however, looked great during his freshman season and saw action in seven of 10 games, but battled injury.
