Ok, well Nesbitt is honorable mention, but Dwyer is on there:
RB: Jonathan Dwyer Georgia Tech
Most places, especially in the ACC, Dwyer would be ineligible for this list because he would have moved right into a starting role as a true freshman; at Georgia Tech, he was stuck behind workhorse Tashard Choice, didn’t start a game and only logged 82 carries. But he was impressive on those runs (5.3 per carry) and will get many, many more opportunities in Paul Johnson’s offense, wherein Dwyer is projected as a "B-Back," or fullback, which takes a huge share of the snaps right up the gut; if Johnson’s lumbering fullbacks at Navy could consistently average five yards on straight-ahead option dives, as they did each of the last four years, Dwyer will be a frequent terror on the second level.
Nice to see these guys getting some national attention.
Also, Georgia Tech's not very hated:
