Selvin Young will get the majority of of the carries, if he doesn't show well and they dont want to move bell to RB Hall may get some shine.

My garbage fantasy team will be the proud new owner of Andre Hall!  Atleast I'm in a league with 80% USF grads so they'll know why to laugh at me.

Great break that Hall may get some carries, but make no mistake, the job will be Selvin YOung's to lose.  The guy is averaging over 9 yards per carry and looks GOOD from what I've seen.  Not too mention they've got experience in Bell there too so even though I'd LOVE to see Hall get some carries, chances are he's still one injury away from getting them.

I can't believe these guys, making millions will risk it all for a little weed.  Unreal.

For the first time ever, a USF player has actual fantasy football value. Nice.

For offensive purposes anyway...

Bill Gramatica had value as a kicker...

Henry, Mitchell and now Nicholas have value as IDP's...

The last 3 years Denver has had a different back that was their leading rushing and went for over 1000 yards.  Everyone of their backs that leaves ends up being less productive somewhere else.  Portis is still putting up good numbers but not what he put up at Denver. 

If Denver gives Hall at least a couple of runs a game and lets him work on filling in his NFL resume with some stats he should be able to have a decent career in the NFL.    No offensive player from USF has really had a legit shot yet in the NFL.  Hopefully Mr Hall can  help us break that trend.  If Blackwell would have been a little taller I think he would have done great in the NFL.  I still think he is the best college QB I have ever seen play in person. 

"Blackwell, who could not be reached for comment, threw for 9,108 yards and 57 touchdowns for USF between 1999 and 2002. He had preseason playing stints with the New York Jets and Tampa Bay Bucs before coming to Freedom. "

From RotoWorld.com:

Selvin Young is in position to start for the Denver Broncos if Travis Henry is suspended by the league for violating the substance abuse policy.

There are still many details to be learned, but Henry is at risk of missing the rest of the season. In his limited time, Young has looked very impressive, averaging almost ten yards-per-touch and often bowling over defenders. Young would be projected as a top-15 back as long as he held the starting job. Andre Hall would move into the backup slot, while Mike Bell and Cecil Sapp are candidates to move back to tailback.

Buddy of mine told me via NFL Radio that Hall has looked very impressive and could see a majority of the carries.

I just picked him up in all my leagues.

    With the climate going on in NCAA athletics, you’re either moving forward at a hard pace or you’re not. I think what intrigued me the most is they’re very determined to become a big player nationally.
