A position group viewed as having good depth just two months ago is now looked upon as dangerously thin. And rather than injuries, a relatively new dynamic in college sports is the main culprit. Three-year starter Stevie Scott left the program after the 2020 season to put his name in the NFL Draft, but with three program veterans returning there was reason to believe the running back room could be a positive for IU in 2021.  Then came the news that former 5-star recruit and USC running back Stephen Carr was transferring in, and the room was looked upon with…
