Yes! That's we are paying him to develop running backs into hard nosed runners that can grind out 6 hard yards. Sets up a 2nd and 4. Then pick up 6 more and....wow, 1st down. His statement doesn't mean he won't go crazy when we break a big run for a td, he's just simply stating the fact that he likes hard running backs inside. The big runs will come. It's the hard yards that are so difficult to teach a rb. Every rb wants to bounce outside and outrun everyone to the endzone. That's not happening in the sec. Maybe every so often, those runs do occur. But, our offense isn't set up like the one down in Athens. Georgia's running backs coach is a good coach (he's at a d1 school in the sec, had to be good) but their offense, O line, and stud backs are what makes the plays. Gillespie is a great coach. Be thankful for our staff and find something else to complain about other than vols football. We are on our way back for crying out loud! Coming off a big win in front of a sellout crowd!! Let's squash the negativity and be more positive as a fan base so we don't screw up this good thing we have going right now! Go Vols!!!
