Tyler looks to finally break through

Marc Tyler dropped off the radar screen last season. Tyler had to redshirt last season due to complications from a broken leg suffered in his last high school game.

The sitting and the watching hurt more than the injury.

Tyler said he learned from the experience though, and the pain suffered on the field helped make him a stronger person off of it.

"I found out that there's more to life than football," Tyler said. "At any time, I can get hurt. It can all go away like that.

"Having to watch everyone play, I decided I was going to work hard."

Where Tyler fits in this season still remains to be seen. SC still has a lot of running backs on the roster and there are only so many touches to go around. We haven't seen what Broderick Green can do as he also sat out last year with an injury.

Sooner or later he will get on the field and it will great to see just what he can do.

How about a little blog etiquette, why not just shoot me an email about your site.

We are pretty easy going here but we hate shameless shilling for hits.

back on topic, yeah it’s easy to forget about Marc since he’s been off the radar a bit, but as I recall, until his injury wasn’t he the #1 recuit in the nation? It wasn’t until his injury that Mcknight jumped into the top spot. Anyway, here’s a big Fight On to Marc!

Rankings

McKnight was ranked #1 on ESPN and #2 on Rivals, while Marc Tyler was Ranked #3 recruit on ESPN and #17 on Rivals. Although it is safe to say that McKnight was more heavily recruited than Marc Tyler, there is really no glaring discernible difference between the skill sets of these two running backs. With all that raw talent in the back field (what is it like 9 All-Americans? I’ve lost count), it will definitely be fun to watch all these backs getting better and competing for more playing time.
