To tell the truth, the running back position for the new season of Crimson Tide Storm was fraught with difficulties, and injuries were a major obstacle, beyond even the best coach's ability to manage.
Behind the decision to appoint Jacobs as the starting running back, one could faintly perceive the coaching staff's helplessness.
However, from another perspective, even though Jacobs was just a high school student, he indeed possessed outstanding talent and ability. Relying on his own strength, he stood out from the fierce competition and secured the starting position; in the current team setup, he was the best choice for the starting running back.
As for Li Wei?
He was indeed excellent, without a doubt; but starting from scratch, with only three weeks of football experience, the time was simply too short.
In Saban's original plan, he had hoped to use Li Wei as a secret weapon, to achieve victory through unexpected strategies.
