Georgia can give a healthy case for why it should be considered "Running Back U."
Exhibit A: Herschel Walker. And then there are guys like Willie McClendon, Robert Edwards, Rodney Hampton, Garrison Hearst, Knowshon Moreno, Todd Gurley and all backs in between past and present.
Elijah Holyfield hopes to be the future for the Bulldogs. The 4-star Atlanta back verbally committed to Georgia Friday afternoon, choosing the Bulldogs over offers from Auburn, Alabama, South Carolina and Tennessee. Holyfield became the 17th pledge in the 2016 class for Georgia coach Mark Richt.
In a video courtesy of WAGA-TV (Fox 5 Atlanta), Holyfield made the announcement using what he called "two of my friends"—two white bulldog puppies on red leashes escorted to the Woodward Academy gym.
