You know, VFL34, you have more FB talent in one finger than I have in my whole body--or ever had--
but this comment by you is absolute HORSE-@#$&!!
It was just LAST YEAR with you posted in a thread about how Jalen is a much better RB than Alabama's HENRY...and how Hurd was gonna be much better in the NFL than him....
And how HURD had a much better upside than Kamara because of his longer stride and power....
And NOW you want US to believe that Tee Martin was RIGHT when he said that HURD WAS SOFT???
BULL--EFFIN'--SHEEET!!!!!
I've watched HURD play in the SEC now for almost 3 years like the rest.....and HE IS ANYTHING BUT SOFT!!!
I ALSO read your post before the BAMA game about how we Tennessee and we GONNA BEAT BAMA.....
I know that you don't have to give a Dang about what I think at all...but until now I really was willing to hear you when you spoke....
But NOT ANYMORE!! Thanks for all that you did for UT on the field and off..and I will always admire you for your team attitude, toughness, and selflessness....
But I can't abide this HORSE-crap HURD being soft....
And a bunch of you dudes better be careful about what is said about HURD.... He is going to play in the NFL...and he is gonna be VERY GOOD.....
You think some of you idiots would have learned something by now from making wrong conclusions about Arian Foster's talent and ability.....
:jpshakehead:
He said the comment was in reference to his attitude and that he walked around campus like he was better than Peyton.

And there goes any credibility you had on volnation. VFL34 is exactly what his name says "VFL". He brings alot more to this board than you can ever dream of doing. Go back and watch Hurd's body language on the bench. He wouldn't even voted a team captain. I hate this as much as anyone and it kills me to see him leave but I can't argue with Vfl34 on this.

Hurd is soft = he can't handle not being the center of attention and he quits when there is adversity. That's different than soft=not physical. Why don't you get it?I was calling B.S. on his comment that seemed to communicate that he agreed about HURD BEING SOFT...
Hurd has taken a BEATING as he has borne the lion's share of the load at the RB position...and even VFL34 said in a thread how much better as a RB Hurd was than Alabama's HENRY....And now he says that HURD IS SOFT??? B.S....
And I honestly don't give a rat's butt about credibility on this site....HONESTLY--some of the most intelligent posts on here have come from fans of other teams--like 99gator to name one!!
His rant was comical and out of context, but wtf does this have to do with anything......
"And a bunch of you dudes better be careful about what is said about HURD.... He is going to play in the NFL...and he is gonna be VERY GOOD....."
:blink:
I can't speak for VFL34 or what he means by his comments about what Tee said.
BUT, I do agree that Hurd is soft as evidenced by quitting. Whatever happened to putting your head down and working harder? How could he give up on his team?
He was 4 games/440 yards away from being the best back maybe ever at UT. A real man would have done what it takes and not run in the face of adversity. A real man would have finished the season and not made himself look like a giant baby.

No. Tee made those remarks regarding hurds demeanor and personality. I stand by them
Travis this is just not correct.
This is you trying to stand by your Vol heritage and rally the horses.
I know you and other former Vols don't want to give any real steam to "new regime" talk. And rightfully so.
But how many times has Jalen bareld over a defender for 1st down?
How many times did he push piles 4 yards after contact??
We don't go to a bowl game if Jalen doesn't make that amazing play against South Carolina as a freshman.
Jalen was one of the biggest reasons for the turnaround.
Yes you feel betrayed, but think about the abuse he has taken... think about all these other offensive players that have left the program.
He did the right thing.
And as a former Vol running back from the state of Tennessee, maybe you should think about how you just described him...
You are right about John Kelly. He will shine.
But Jalen was 446 yards away from being the All-time rushing leader at Tennessee. How could anyone truly call him soft?
I don't understand how you and MikeVol44 don't understand that mentally soft is NOT the same thing as physically soft. No one questions or denies Hurd's physical toughness, but it seems to be pretty clear from multiple sources that Hurd has attitude issues and desires to be the center of attention. This is not the same thing as calling him soft on the football field.
I cannot understand why people do not get this.

I took Mike questioning the comment of being soft being in reference to how he played the game. I was just letting him know it in reference to his attitude,not his playing ability.
Well, in all honesty, I was angry at the time....
I truly confess that a better approach on my part would have been to ask 34 exactly what he meant by his comment.
However, he said that we should remember what Tee Martin said about HURD...
TL;DR the rest of the post
