Freshman Rashod Dubinion has potential to be key player in rushing game

There’s another candidate to carry the load for the Arkansas running game this season.

There is a ton of buzz surrounding Arkansas football and for good reason.

Both coordinators, [autotag]Kendal Briles[/autotag] and [autotag]Barry Odom[/autotag] return for their third season, and signal-caller [autotag]KJ Jefferson[/autotag] returns to lead the offense with his dual-threat attack.

The biggest question surrounding the Razorback offense is, “who steps up in the place of Trelon Smith?” Smith, who transferred to TCU during the offseason, leaves behind 598 yards and five touchdowns from 2021.

[autotag]Raheim Sanders[/autotag], [autotag]Dominique Johnson[/autotag], and [autotag]AJ Green[/autotag] are among the choices that Arkansas has, but there is another name that Razorback fans should get to know, that’s freshman [autotag]Rashod Dubinion[/autotag].

According to Nikki Chavanelle of On3, Dubinion, an early enrollee from Cedar Grove High School in Ellenwood, Ga., played for current running backs coach Jimmy Smith in high school. Although early in his career, Dubinion looks to get a significant amount of carries in 2022, says head coach Sam Pittman.

He’s really a shifty runner. He’s a mature kid. There’s no doubt in my mind that he’ll help us next year in games. Not just special teams but he’ll be one of the backs toating the mail because he’s a good player.

Georgia currently lacks a commitment in the class of 2022. Dubinion recently visited Athens with his teammate Janiran Bonner:

The duo would be fun to watch in Athens. We’ll have to wait and see where else they draw interest.
