[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 739135, member: 2299"] Dwyer was the best back we've had in my lifetime, and probably the best since Ivory. As far as last year we had two great backs in the same year then it would probably be 09 for me with Dwyer and Allen. Dwyer putting up nearly 1400 yards on nearly 6 ypc and Allen putting in over 600 more on nearly 10 ypc is insane. It is also a bit of hindsight using Allen's following year (~1300 yards) as proof that 09 had two legit featured backs. '10 saw a similar dynamic with Allen and Smith but Smith never took over the featured back role. 2014 is probably another year people will point to. Days will always be a huge what if, in terms of what could have been had he started his career at BBack, but it's hard for me to really put those two in the same conversation as Dwyer/Allen when neither of them ever hit more than 1000. Likewise, based on pure potential, '16 with Mills and Marshall could have been comparable but neither turned out to be what they could have. This year certainly seems like it could have that level of potential. Mason already putting up almost 900 yards as a sophomore and we have guys like Griffina nd Gibbs that could certainly tear it up if we get our OL going strong. [/QUOTE]
