Coach Washington announced today that Graves suffered a knee injury in the Duke game and they fear it could be an ACL.
That leaves Martin, Baker and TJ Boyce as the only other running backs listed on the team roster.
If it time to consider a temporary position change for Ifedi?

Nah.
But if Ifedi doesn't play QB at Charleston Southern... our offensive coaching staff needs their heads checked.

Not imo. He still deserves a long look at qb.
I'm sure there are more than enough players on the depth chart that have experience playing the position. There are probably also some redshirts lurking around on campus. Somebody may have to switch positions or take off a redshirt if necessary.
Heck, let Justin Nwachukwu or Jeremiah Martin get a few carries as long as they aren't fumblers.

But I saw enough on Saturday to know that we can't fool around with this one.... for this year and for 2020. Ifedi needs to play QB sometime on Saturday... period.

Heck, let Justin Nwachukwu or Jeremiah Martin get a few carries as long as they aren't fumblers. Nwachukwu has run the ball a couple of times this year already for positive yards. I would also look at Stephen Davis JR; he initially signed at Auburn as a RB. Another look to Aaron Harris QB that ran for 1,500 yards last year and lead his team in rushing. I am with Durham Ifedi needs snaps under center.

I figure we need a big back. Don't get no bigger than the two I mentioned.
Putting Ifedi back there taking hand offs makes much less sense than lining Bell up at TE.
Imo Ifedi needs to be the number one guy off the bench this weekend. Fowler's gotten snaps in two games and done less than nothing so far. It's time to see Ifedi in live game action in an Aggie uniform.

This may sound crazy but for a series have both Cater and Fidedi in the same backfield The defense would have to respect his passing ability and Carter running ability Like I said crazy but a hb option pass would keep the defense off balance CRAZY

Here's the million dollar question that Barnette needs to answer:
Why the hell were you running a toss sweep in the fourth quarter with the slowest running back on the team? What good could have possibly come from that play design? What, was he gonna make 2 guys miss in the backfield and maybe fall forward for a 1 yard gain?
That was almost a stupid as the the toss sweep to the short side of the field in the fourth quarter against Elon.

This one stings a bit more because that play call basically got Graves hurt against Duke. Not intentionally... but still.

Has that play ever gotten us any more than a yard or two?
