I Find It Odd

that I have yet to hear a single rb praise their new coach. I've heard the wr's talk about the new O and their new coach. I have heard multiple players mention Clawson, but not one has mentioned Drayton. Maybe it's just the off-season and Im reaching.

well, if you were a player vying for pt wouldnt you publically praise your new position coach if he was helping you?

Rex sometimes I dont know why you even post. Foster has said that Drayton is alot like Trooper and as far as I know Foster loved Trooper. Drayton is a good coach and a great recruiter, nothing to worry about. GO VOLS!!

Didn't Tauren Poole have a lot of good things to say about him in the article one of the newspapers did on him?

Foster and the like have said a lot of good things. I remember arian in the last week or so saying he loves that Drayton has experience as a RB. They can relate a lot better than the former RB coach because Drayton knows what they see and how they feel, not a shot at Roper but he believes Drayton has a better feel for the position.

why do you feel the need to comment on what I do or dont do? Another thing, you seem to think a comparison to TT is a compliment, imo, it's not. By the way, you can call Stan a great recruiter, but until he performs outside of the state of Florida, the jury is still out.

No surprise there. It was on Rivals. Stan has Memphis, too, IRRC, so if he lands Marlon Brown at least that'll shut you up...

"that'll shut you up..", why the venom? the guy has yet to prove his rep as an ace recruiter outside of Florida. what's so bad about pointing that out.

I'll try to find the link.

Every RB on the roster has complimented Drayton at least once.

Link of Creer and Moore talking about Drayton - cPanel®

Poole on Drayton - cPanel®

Foster on Drayton (not the one we were speaking of) - cPanel®

Can't find the article we were talking about though.
