The episode previews the Indiana football running back position for 2026, analyzing key players and their potential impact on the team's offense.
Indiana football has a fascinating running back room heading into 2026, and CrimsonCast breaks down how Turbo Richard , Khobie Martin , and Lee Beebe Jr. could power the Hoosiers’ offense. Galen Clavio looks at the numbers, roles, and skill sets for IU’s top three backs, comparing them to what Indiana got from Roman Hemby and Kaelon Black over the last two seasons. The episode digs into Turbo Richard’s production at Boston College, Lee Beebe Jr.’s early flashes before injury, Khobie Martin’s efficiency in limited work, how the Hoosiers may use running backs in the passing game, and why Curt Cignetti and Mike Shanahan’s run-first offense could once again be one of the keys to making life easier for Josh Hoover.
