Butch Expects More From Tailbacks

Its depressing, thinking of the O line we are going to field this year and knowing we dont have an elite rb to hand the ball off to.

But, we do have an effective running game. And you can definitely take solace in that very comforting fact.

Hard to be effective when the defense knows you're about to run the ball. UT's offense last year was the most predictable offense I've ever seen.

Neal and Lane are good enough as a combo to get the job done. You can't run three run plays out of two formations and expect great success.

You, sir, are absolutely correct. Vanilla playcalling didn't help the run game at all. One would think with our passing game that it would've opened up the run big time.

 

[Ned Ray McWorkher]

One would then have been overrating our passing game.

Year too late. I'm hopeful Lane or Neal will be a good combo this year.

Put a freshman back in that starting role and see if that shame factor will make upperclassmen backs motivated. Im normally for red shirting but in this case what's Coach Butch got to lose? Other SEC schools feild freshman backs and if recent memory serves they pay off.

I really like Neal because I see potential but it just seems like he doesn't want to run hard or get hit.
I like Lane but he isn't as fast as I want him to be but he does run hard.
If Neal ran like Lane then we would have an All-SEC back.

Living in west Tennessee otherwise known as the capitol of east arkansas and north mississippi I seriously have to ask a question to Vol nation. It seems like the Chattanooga news is head and shoulders better than the Knox news when it comes to UT sports. If we can fire coaches then why the f can't the boosters get rid of Adams and gang and get the chattanooga boys up there?
