Feaster

[LazyIslander]

Anyone here ready to quit talking about the refs and talk about Feaster?
He finally got the 20+ carries he's always wanted and look what he did with it!
Of course without him the refs wouldn't have been an issue, as the game wouldn't have been close.

Great day for him. Glad for him that he was able to step up when needed. It’s exactly the reason he is here .

He looks like a different back then he did when he first got here. Lowering his head a little more and hitting the holes a little faster. ( sometimes he still dances but that looks like it’s changing. ).

His yards came on some tough hard runs and then breaking to open field or falling/powering forward.

Give coach Brown a lot of credit. Our running backs have improved. Hopefully recruits will pick up on this and want to play for him. Feaster is a great example on how good coaching makes a difference and makes players better

I think that he got here and assumed that he would be the #1 back. When Rico got most of the touches in the first few games, Feaster came into the game a little sluggish (with the exception of the TD catch against UNC) and unmotivated.
When Feaster realized that he was the feature back against Florida, he took the initiative and ran with it. Against a good Florida defense. Hope he has a big game this weekend and a good rest of the season.

He played well, I think Rico is a better back but now that he is out I am glad we have Feaster.

I think Feaster is better then Rico, opinions will vary, I hope he strengthens my case against Tenn!

Dang glad to have him. He can ball. He is also a great receiver. But for some that escapes the game plans. Not sure we have game plans on offense.

Rico was number 1 and has showed why on the field hands down.

Disagree that Feaster is a better back. He was last year but this season Rico has maned up and been coached to know there ain't no yardage east to west.

They together are the best two backs we have seen in a long time here.

Going back, but probably the best workhorses we have had since Harold Green/Mike Dingle

 

[section907]

Two different styles. Both good backs.

Those were two dang good backs. I remember watching Dingle play us when I was in high school (Summerville) He was a grown man playing with children. He even kicked off for the Stags. Dude was a beast.

Personally I think Feaster started out in cowtown as a north/south back. He started dancing when Etinnee got there. Must thought that’s what their staff wanted. He’s a durn good back and competition at the position made Rico better.

Now ball out on Rocky Top!!!

Feaster is clearly the superior back.

We don’t block well enough for a north/South runner. ETNs quick lateral moves and balance helps hide some of our O line deficiencies.

Apparently You have not been watching very closely. Rico has been running angry, north and south! But Feaster certainly isn't a slouch!
