Drew played with heart last night!!!

Did anyone else notice Drew Richmond played a lot better last night?

 

[VolGirl1126]

Yes. He only had 2 penalties.

 

[BlackCreekVol]

I noticed the false starts. In all seriousness, he did play better

Sometimes a little time on the pine pays dividends!

 

[FranklinVFL]

Over 200 yards rushing. Every player on the OL has to play their role to do that.

Much better day for 51. Guess getting yanked woke him up.

 

[SandoVOL]

We were running between rt and rg effectively all night, I just don't understand the false starts...

I also noticed him pulling a teammate away from a possible altercation preventing a 15 yard penalty.

 

[NEVolFan]

I usually like to watch where the ball goes... but focused on Drew for the first half. He did a very good job... was actually a positive factor in the game.

 

[Mathias]

Yes. He only had 2 penalties.

XD

 

[SalVolinus]

I'm a big believer in positivity. He wasn't perfect but the guy has poured a lot of sweat into the program and he's had some good moments this year. I'm happy for all the guys that have been able to celebrate the Kentucky and Auburn wins this year.

Your right.Sitting in QQ we watched him and i think he may have had a light bulb moment,with a little help from coach.

Yes ge played with much more effort.

 

[FïreBall]

He played mad it seemed.. Hope he continues this..

 

[bpalmer28]

I was pissed after his false start on the first series. Watched him on the next play to see what he’d do and he MAULED a guy. Helton called a run play right behind him and Richmond opened a big hole.

Was my favorite call of the day by Helton. Richmond grew a little hair on his chest yesterday.

There where at least 3 times Drew appeared to pancake the guy he was blocking.
When I got home the DVR was on the Fritz (thanks AT&T)

 

[SD189]

Very happy for Drew. Sometimes guys are just really laid back and need the right guy around to push his buttons. Hopefully Pruitt and Friend can keep him fired up and hungry. The guys has lots of potential, just needs to be an ******* on the football field.

 

[TennGentry]

Yeah well do it for more than one game

 

[njvols]

Yep, I'll take a personal foul for aggressiveness every now and then, in exchange for playing with passion. Good for him (not the penalties)

 

[BanditVol]

He did play better. I'll give him a pass on the false starts and assume it was because he was so eager to knock heads. But he does need to clean that up vs Mizzou

 

[ITSGR82BATNVOL]

He may start next year too as a red shirt senior, but if he continues the type play we've witnessed his first three years, his ass will hit the pine and stay there. The only reason, he sees the playing time he does now is because we have no other choice presently.

 

[photovol]

Yes. He only had 2 penalties.

Richmond was much more agressive, regardlless of the 2 penalties, he played pretty well and it was a welcome site indeed

Hope the coaches aren't handing him a pass on the false starts. In all my years of watching fball, I've never seen a 3 year starter on the OL with so many false starts - makes one wonder if he has a hearing problem? Is he up to 10 on the season now? Zero excuses for these false starts and alignment penalties. Our margin of error is so slim that these simple mental mistakes can keep us from a win. We need better leadership from our upper classmen.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

Some competition for that position might be a real good thing for him. Sometimes you can run faster if you're hearing footsteps.

Maybe we should get someone from the other team to attempt to fight him during the 1st quarter of every game? He played very well!
