Permanent game captains

[Bassmanbruno]

343 yards with 6 games to go. Hard to see him not get the record unless he is benched.

Good chance he goes for 20-40 yards against Bama/South Carolina/MSU/Kentucky.. all have really good defenses. So he'll have to go off against Wyoming.

He's only rushed for 341 yards in the previous 6 games...

It could happen

Foster's touches this weekend will determine whether has a chance at it. If he is relegated to spot carries, his career will end as quietly as Keith Davis' once promising career.

 

[SanFranVolFan]

wow... imagine being 2 yards short of the record

 

[Low Country Vol]

He's only rushed for 341 yards in the previous 6 games...

He has 68 carries through six games. The question is will he get 69 more carries at 5 yards a clip the last six games.

 

[SanFranVolFan]

I'm pulling for him, but he needs to bust a long one soon to have a chance

 

[zjcvols]

I can't believe Foster might break it. I mean think, he's not even a top 10 back in UT history

Taurean Poole? Creer? Who do you speak of? :crazy:

I was thinking the same thing:lolabove:

Hardesty over Foster? Interesting

Someone has to be captain for all those that should get more playing time, but don't. I think I remember reading this was a player vote, but can't be sure.

Ramon Foster? He's terrible. There are several senior or junior OL that are much more competent.

I think it was a player vote.

I'm not so sure it smells like a player vote to me...

Who cares? It's just ceremonial blather. The leaders of the team are who they are. The guy that gets to look to the sideline and tell the official what the coach said is just immaterial.

You trying to say, "They are who we thought they were"?

 

[vol_in_ar]

Maybe it will help define clear leadership roles? Anything at this point.

Agreed....

[velovol]

it might mean something if it wasnt midway through the season.

 

[dan4vols]

Today, Fulmer named Robert Ayres, Ramon Foster, Lucas Taylor, Ellix Wilson, Montario Hardesty and Eric Berry as captains for the rest of the season. Previously, captains were named on a game by game basis.

Thoughts?

I'm not sure how much difference it will make but I like the move.

I think either CPF reads this board or he's beginning to think like a fan.

Agreed.

Any decision Fulmer makes carries no weight in my book considering how screwed up a job he did with the QB decision this year.

He has 68 carries through six games. The question is will he get 69 more carries at 5 yards a clip the last six games.

11 carries for 40 yds ain't gonna git'er done.

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Foster ain't gonna make it...
