I thought this was a good article on Foreman and is a very smart decision with his speed ... """"Jones mentioned last week on ESPN that Vols junior cornerback Malik Foreman — the team’s fastest player — might get looks at wide receiver in camp, and that’s a move that’s worth considering, especially if Pearson remains out of the lineup. Tennessee’s coach reiterated Wednesday that Foreman could get looks at wideout.

 

“It’s still a very, very strong conversation in our building,†Jones said. “Malik has done a very, very good job to put himself in those conversations. He’s an individual who continues to mature and grow in our football program, and we’ll continue to address that situation, but you may seen him playing some receiver.†""""

It was Science Hill, He rode the read option to the side line then burst through the middle and and it looked look like the SH players were running in quicksand...Missing the boy wonder....darn shame.

I can still see the play in my mind but just couldn't remember who he was running away from

My favorite Foreman play came against Bearden in the playoffs. The Bearden running back broke open a field length run up the middle and Foreman ran him down at the three yard line and from behind just so easily tipped the ball loose. DB recovered in the end zone. The thing that was so awesome was how fast he ran by other DB defenders that were also chasing the Bearden player. It's like somebody said, everybody else was running in sand.

That's what a good coach does.First, he gets the players out for football.Second,he knows what his players can do and puts them in the right position.A kid might be better suited for defense instead of offense.You reward those kids that not only are great players but go the extra mile.They play hurt,say with a sprained ankle for a week during spring.work hard in the weight room ,even help other players on their own time and work hard in the class room.Yes,a good coach rewards his strongest players that not only are studs on the field but go the extra mile for him and their team.

Indeed sir. Anyone knows this, but apparently some coaches missed that part of "coaching 101" As a fan of the Greene Devils, I have to say our OL is pretty stacked this year, but our D'line has one or two question marks at this point, but it would tickle me pink or GREENE, if some young stud were to find his way to Burley I would bet my left leg ( and my right one as well ) OUR coaching staff would see him put in the correct position

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
