War Horse

[WoodsmanVol]

I was looking at Evans' breakaway runs against Missouri with camera catching him front side. His gait makes me think of a Native American paint, a war horse of the plains tribes. Half galloping and half prancing. The gait is practically the same. Naw, I won't be referring to him as the war horse, but..um..if the hoofing fits...

You are a really interesting person, WoodsmanVol.

I know it's early, but Evan's vision and break-away ability are combined traits we haven't seen in a long time.

 

[Special Ed]

Makes me think of the Steeds of Helios:

Blazing a fiery trail across the sky...

Or winged Pegasus:

Do you indulge in peyote?

HAHAHAHA!

Evans is going to feast Saturday. Being a Carolina kid, he’s going to have a chip on his shoulder. Time to punish some defenders

 

[WoodsmanVol]

BigOrangeLoyalist, thank you. It's like I told another poster, I think as a baby I dropped my head but didn't put it back on quite correctly.

Rylee, peyote? That little cactus? Well, yes, but for medical and religious purposes only whether sick or rituializing or not. In other circumstances, well..the Debil made me do it.

Does Evans rush for 1,000 yards this year?

You misspelled weirdo

Does Evans rush for 1,000 yards this year?

Definitely if he stays healthy and we make a bowl game. But regardless of bowl game, he's gotta average 91 yards per game over the next 7 regular season games to get to 1000 yards. Definitely seems doable if he can stay healthy.

Do you indulge in peyote?

I sure as hell hope so.

Wierdough?

I arose to Vol Nation to see what was the clatter

Anoter WoodsmanVol post he must of thunk up in the shower

Surely you weren't sound asleep in your bed

With college boys and prancing ponies running through your head

Remember when the Vols had 2 backs rush for over a 1000 in a season?

 

[Hacksaw]

It's not a bad nickname. He could do worse.

Peyote Manning...

I'll say this, I knew who you were talking about by the title alone. Have you seen the Waterboy clip though? I'm afraid that might stick as it is dead on accurate.

Would need a few more touches than he's getting to reach 1000.

 

[BeardedVol]

Did someone say 'horse'?

Evans does have a gifted running gait for sure.

 

[EODVOL]

Does Evans rush for 1,000 yards this year?

Not if he keeps splitting time with Smalls. Smalls is a capable enough back but just doesn't have the vision and toughness in his run like Evans. Small should be limited to those times when Evans needs a breather.

Sorry double post.
