Spoke with a source familiar with the situation and it seems unlikely that BC will take a running back in the '16 class. That might not come as a huge surprise given the way they have recruited the position recently. The numbers just do not speak to a huge need.
They had offered some kids earlier this year. If they find a great player they feel like they have to get, they'll take him. But they're not going into it saying they need a running back.
Georgia's Malik Staples is someone BC uncovered really before anyone else. He has since blown up so landing him will be more difficult even if he plans to visit at some point still.
I asked about Carlin Fils-Aime, a Florida kid that's coming off an injury. I'm told he is someone that can play several different positions. He has always spoken highly of BC and I know at least that they're "in the mix." One reason for that is he's very close friends with Michael Walker and that's carrying a lot of weight.
