hard to find speedy runniing backs to walk on during those days. 30 scholarships and 120 max meant there was little quality left to get studs like him to walk on.

While I.M. Hipp has the all time greatest name for a college football player and was a great runner, I think Tomich's impact was greater. He was a big part of those championship defenses.

I think with physicality the speed comes, actually. These days, you recruit speed (which is what the staff seems to be doing) then build them up. Make them physical to go along with that speed.
