Kentucky is returning one of the best running backs in all of college football.
Actually, according to Pro Football Focus, Wildcats running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. is the best returning running back in all of college football. PFF graded C-Rod out at 92.4 for his unbelievably efficient season in 2020, ahead of BYU’s Tyler Allgeier (92.1), Ole Miss’ Jerrion Ealy (88.6), Kanas State’s Deuce Vaughn (88.4), and available transfer Kenneth Walker III (87.1).
