The Marlin Lane Breakout Party

[ThunderVol11]

Wow!!!!!! I've been so impressed by him to day. Needless to say, we have to get him more touches moving forward. He has a bright future in orange!

He looks good. It's Marlin just fyi.

Hes done good all year. His avg ypc was better than Neal until the bama defense. After today it will be back above Neals again. He has a longer carry from scrim than Neal with a lot less attempts. Runs north and south and hits the hole better than Neal for the most part. I think he shouls have been starting all year. That being said, Neal has done a good job also. Both backs, the o-line and Jay Graham deserve props.

I was waiting for New Coach to start this thread. He had a good day. But before today he had shown nothing to impress me.

It was against a SunBelt team that plays defense as good as us.

Both are average at best and not what the Vols are used to having at that position, that being said the offensive line has been much improved, I would love to see a back like Hardesty or Bryce Brown run behind this line.
