ESPN names Georgia football running back Trevor Etienne as top SEC running back for 2024
Georgia was very active in the transfer portal this offseason, adding seven players to its already talented roster.

I can't wait to see him and others in action at G Day just a month away!
ESPN got one right, what do you know. Trevor will be the leading SEC rusher this season, I agree. This kid can cut and run like no other back I have seen. Very explosive. Quick like a dart....evasive and can catch a pass as well. Dawgs grabbed a good one in Trevor. Actually, UGA backfield will be loaded. Branson R. should return. This guy is a bulldozer. I look forward to spring practice and G Day.
Yeah, it’s nice to have a very good back like Trevor at UGA. Of the returning RBs I like Branson a lot. He’s a bull and difficult to bring down. Hoping his recovery from knee surgery goes well. BR and TE could be a lot like Chubb and Michele. Of course, Rod Robinson also looked very good toward the end of last season. Andrew Paul was touted for his work last year until slowed by an injury. Cash is a good back also. Plus highly touted freshmen coming in. The RB room looks loaded!
I would be fine with using a stable of 4 RBs back there (Etienne, R. Robinson, Paul and B. Robinson) like we did during the days of Gurley, Henderson, Michel and Chubb.
I expect Entienne will be the feature back with R.Robnson being the guy for perhaps short yardage and to spell Entienne. Sort of like we did last year with Dajun and Milton(when Milton was 100%). THat's a powerful 1-2 punch. Imagine the defense thinking OK Entienne's not in on this play we can catch a break, but oh no look who's in now the big 6'1" 240 pound horse! Good luck with that. WIth a good lead we should see any number of good backs in the 4th quarter!
ONe of the things mentioned by a couple of UGA players on their podcast is how R. Robinson is alot more nimble than people think he is.
I'm (confidently) guessing Etienne's status on the various "prospect radars" gets elevated significantly because he's now in the Georgia system versus toiling away in the Florida swamp. Not taking anything away from Entienne, as he's an outstanding, exciting back... but he's now where he should be, and will be rewarded for it. I'd also (confidently) guess those higher rated backs would average at least 1 less yard/carry if they went through the gauntlet of Georgia's football schedule. Go Dawgs!
Wonder if he'll have a better offensive line blocking for him this coming season?
Go, Dawgs!
