Glad Arian Foster is graduating

Yeah, he was dedicated about playing against Wyoming. This guy has an attitude like KW did and is bad for this team.

Arian played as hard as he could for this program. He wasnt the fastest or strongest on the field but he played for four years at TN. He deserves to respect, not disrespect.

I have no doubt that in the past AF has given his all for the team. His untimely fumbles have cost the team at least two games this year alone. But it's just a series of unfortunate events. My major complaint with AF is that CPF has stated that AF has played through numerous injuries and given his all for the team. Yet, this weekend against Wyoming, he didn't feel like he could go. I saw another post somewhere that stated he was talking it up in class with other people stating he was sitting out because CPF was fired. Well my friend, if your not going to help the team, sit your arse on the bench and sulk. Let the players that want to win, no matter what, get in the game and give it their all. I wish you well Arian, but your time should be done with Tennessee now!!

I think the problem is that Foster had a break out year last year with like 1200 yards and 12 TD's as well as a few through the air and this year he just hasn't been able to produce. you can say you don't like his running style or whatever but the bottom line is he is a good RB and he isn't at the all-time list for no reason. please don't step on the man's head while he is drowning......just pray that the o-line might throw a block or two these last few games.

This would be borderline applicable if the other running backs hadn't gotten so much playing time.

Nice Try KPT
But of those other backs, how many times have they single-handedly changed the outcome of a game? Or even have had a part in changing the outcome.

Arian has changed momentum/outcomes of games more the all the other backs (fullbacks included) combined.

No one is stating he is not a hard-worker, or a dedicated player (although his dedication took a hit with his "ghost injury" this past game....ahem....boycott). All people are stating is that he has a knack for fumbling, or having a part of the fumbling that is devastating to the team. Florida this year, UCLA this year, Auburn this year, etc etc. And that is just this year.

He may be a decent, albeit weirdly fascinated with dinosaurs, guy. He just hasn't cut is a running back that will strike fear in the opponents. The defense has instead been licking their chops when he is in the game.

As far as being on the All-Time list, how many games has he started compared to the others around him on the list? He has had the benefit of playing significantly all four years. Most of our backs have not had the same luxury.

over the years I have heard alot of my friends give me a hard time about casey Clausen and Eric Ainge. They told me several times they were glad they were graduating. Now they kinda eating crow. I on the other hand have to agree that I will never be so happy to see Fumblin Foster leave with hilip. In a way it kind of sum up Fulmers career. The Senior plays no matter how much slower and how undisciplined he is compared to the younger more talented players. Sorry to beat a dead horse but Foster graduating is addition by subtraction. In closing Iwish him the best in his Philosophy major, I hope it takes him to success, just as long as he never touches Shields-Watkins Field Ever again!:horse:

A totally tasteless post, for a kid that played his heart out at YOUR University. Some of you idiots make me sick.
