That said, there are reasons Hill continues to get plenty of carries (more than Gio) despite Gio's success. Gio is clearly best suited in a time share. He was a disappointment as the clear cut starter last year. Any time he's split carries (with Hill or BJGE) he was far more effective.
Also, the coaches (unlike the pro-Gio, anti-Hill crowd) realize that a RB who does what Hill did last year clearly has talent. Like it or not, Hill is going to have a significant role for the forseeable future. Even if it's only to keep Gio fresh while he endures through this slump.

I didn't give up on Gio last year and I'm not giving up on Hill now.
I am with you guys, love the one two punch and completely agree.
Gio got injured and was not the same guy last year. I think this was more than anything but the
sophomore slump seems to be happening with Hill. Like i have been saying, watch out when both
of these backs are playing to their potential.
