this guy has been making defensive players look really bad. he has great moves and vision I think he is exactly what the bobcats needed for awhile. Not taking nothing from the other two runningback Justin and Jason Gathings but this Evin Groves Kid might be the Big Ticket he is just entertaining to watch

Groves is one of the players the coaches have been high on from last year's recruiting class. Saucedo, Mauia, Chris Smith, Ashley, Daly, Lulay, Papich, are others just off the top of my head that they seem to really like. There are others. I wouldn't be surprised to see about 10 of them from that class starting in '06.
All three backs looked good in spring ball from the sounds of it, I just think it's tough to say considering the poor shape the defense is in. All three backs have got to be anxious to run behind this line, which along with Lulay, are the strengths of the team and probably the best at those spots in the Big Sky. MSU has a chance to have a Ron Brown, Cadillac Williams...plus one backfield this year. The line will make an average back a good back, and a good back a great back. If the three are good backs, the should easily combine for over 2,000 rushing yards this year.
Back to Groves. He's in a great situation and MSU's line looks set for a number of years to come with Smith, Barnhardt, DeCock, Beniger to name a few waiting in the wings. Groves does
