Groshek was Wisconsin high school POY at QB before converting to RB at Wisconsin. Passed for almost 2,500 yds and more than 40 TDs as a hs senior so he could be a deep fallback option at QB.
Yep. I like him over Watson as a RB. Just seems to find the holes and reminds of a Rex Type RB. Nothing flashy but just a really good football player. Unlike James White, this kid can throw the call and has experience as QB. Go heavy set and grind the call against NU and shorten the game. Sprinkle DVB in as well to run your normal offense and they can win this game.
