Erin Madden would have bee the best JC running back in the nation if he did not get into league problems. He is still in Jail and is trail won't be anytime soon.

: I wouldn't count on SJSU landing a JC
: running back this year. Only three names
: have surfaced, so it appears that a JC
: running back is not a priority. The three JC
: backs that I know of are as follows:
:
: Erin Madden - Compton JC
: Highly touted (4 stars), he had offers from
: SJSU, Arizona, Colorado, Oregon, Oregon St,
: and Kansas St. prior to the 2007 season. He
: ran into some legal problems over the summer
: and did not play this past fall. It appears
: everyone, including SJSU, has cooled their
: interest. I doubt he signs with a D1-A team.
:
: Evan Williams - Santa Rose JC
: At 6-1, 210, Williams had the size to be a
: workhorse, but that simply was not the case.
: In nine games for SRJC, he only carried the
: ball 61 times, which is slighly more than
: half of the number of carries his QB Greg
: Alexander had. He did catch 41 balls out of
: the backfield. But, based on productivity
: alone, it does not appear he would be an
: impact player for SJSU.
:
: Zack Hulce - Glendale (AZ) JC
: Hulce was much more productive than Evan
: Williams. He ran for 1100 yards in 10 games,
: 8 TD's, but only average one reception a
: game. I ran for 260 yards in one game this
: past season.
:
: It's more likely that SJSU will sign a high
: school back. I'm keeping my fingers crossed
: that Langston Jackson of Simi Valley chooses
: the Spartans. He's cut in the Johnny Johnson
: mold.
:
: Would not be surprised to see both of the
: backs from Mitty come our way. Fullback
: Kenny Jackson is the son of the former
: Spartan from the Mike Perez era. He can also
: play LB. Running back Thomas Reynolds, who
: broke his leg last fall, might be asked to
: walk-on or grayshirt.
:
:
: Returning Spartan backs include:
:
: Yonus Davis - (if he is granted a medical
: reshirt)
: Patrick Perry - (coming off a knee injury
: that sidelined him the entire 2007 season.
: Cameron Island - Played hurt the entire 2007
: season.
: Dominique Hunsucker - Probably will stick to
: defense.
: Cameron Collins - Redshirted in 2007
:
: The one back that I've heard good things
: about is Brandon Rutley from Martinez, CA. I
: believe he grayshirted this past season.
