00:00Have you ever had a room at running back this deep?
00:02I know Coach Mark said that prior to Cam's injury,
00:05this is the deepest room by far that he's had.
00:07How does it stack up for you?
00:08Yeah, I think it's an interesting question.
00:12I think that depth wise, to me always, I think about quality too.
00:17Like, who are the guys that are ready to play?
00:19I think injuries and a lot of things, you have to wonder how ready some guys are.
00:25Are they ready to step into a role?
00:26And that's the hard part, is where they're at.
00:30We played seasons at Fresno State where Ronnie Rivers and Jordan Mims and
00:35Josh Hokett was another guy people up here wouldn't know.
00:37But all three of those guys are in the NFL right now and are playing.
00:41And there was a lot of competition in that room with just three guys.
00:46So I think the level of competition obviously changed a lot with Cam out of
00:52the room.
00:53So now it really opens up where there was a definitive line where Cam had
00:57really cemented himself.
00:59And now there's a lot of guys that are very close.
01:02And I'm waiting to see some separation, to be honest.
01:05And I haven't seen anybody separate yet, not even two guys.
01:08So we still have some work to do to see who those guys are gonna be.
