What situation? I’m out of the loop with Perine and Lemons...what’s going on?

Lemons said he was miserable last year because Mcelwain's offense sucked the life out of the team.
Idk if that's what Perine is tweeting about. Perine has to know that this looks like he's saying he's not happy. RB and WR might have some unhappy players a few more games into the season. Let's see who gets touches. Pierce is a beast and might be the best back. But i bet he gets the 4 game redshirt treatment. It's between Scarlett, Davis and Perine. That's one guy too many when we have a bunch of WRs that need touches too. Plus we have a QB that's going to keep it on some option plays. Is Perine the odd man out? Probably. I like Perine's ability a lot. I think I'm probably in the minority on this board when it comes to Perine. I still think they need to feed Davis first, then Scarlett. **The offensive line will have to figure out how to run block first though**

Thanks. I didn’t see lemons comment anywhere. He’s could transfer with all the backs we have. But he is also really, really good and maybe the best breakaway threat of all.
I’m another Perine fan as well. Consistent and runs tough.
It’s just crazy we suddenly have this problem. Add Sanders or Wright to the mix next year and it’s wild.

Yeah I think it kinda sucks that we can't see more Lemons. He might have the best burst and top end speed. But the other backs are just better. Davis is clearly the best back when he's 100% healthy. We haven't seen enough of Pierce yet. He was my favorite recruit last cycle. I just wish we could have one guy get into a rhythm. It's always been a balance of trying to keep guys fresh/getting one or two backs enough carries to get into a rhythm.

You can't give Peerine the ball only twice when he runs it once for 24 yards breaking tackles repeatedly. Wake the fck up, coach.

Perine might have the best vision of the RB group, although I really like what I see from Pierce early. Both Perine and Pierce set up blocks with patient running, and also know when to get vertical. Hopefully that wasn't an ominous tweet from him. I agree that he needs more than 2 carries a game. Scarlett didn't impress me at all. Unless he stops dancing in the hole trying to break every run for a huge gain, I really don't see any reason to take touches away from Perine on his account. I would go with Perine and Pierce, and use Malik as a change of pace back. Scarlett should come off the bench in the 2nd half to pound an already tired defense.

Perine is the best all around back on the team.....Davis doesn't appear to be 100% and as we all know any of these backs are only one play away from getting more touches due to injuries.
