Virginia running backs feel confident and up to the challenge heading into the season

Fall camp got underway in Charlottesville on Friday morning as the Virginia football team took the field with three weeks left until the start of the season.

“Lots and lots of competition at the running back spot,” Mendenhall told reporters after Virginia’s first day of fall camp. “With Ronnie Walker being back, and Mike Hollins being back, and Devin Darrington from Harvard coming in — who has had a really strong summer — and Amaad Foston showing up, it’s probably our deepest position.
