If Hiestand can conjur up even a mediocre offensive line, TP could rush for more yards than Hardesty had last year. He makes quicker cuts and he maintains balance really well. Only knock on him is that he isn't as strong as MH (or BB), so he won't be able to push the pile. But that's why we have Toney Williams. Also, I don't know how he is at protecting the ball. I guarantee he won't be better than Hardesty was, since he NEVER fumbled while at UT... not once....
Yes he did. He fumbled twice after catching screen passes.
