Quick Hits with Arian Foster (http://utvolsfootball.blogspot.com/2008/06/quick-hits-with-arian-foster.html)

It's the offseason so I thought perhaps you'd be interested.

It sounds like he has a really good head on his shoulders. I don't know too much about him, but it seems like he deserves respect.

That's exciting. He is a monster on the ground, and I hope he gets all the touches he needs to get the Volunteer record.

I'm glad he decided to stick around this fall!

Foster has really matured as a running back and a person. I may be really biased but I see him going off this season. Clawson said he is going to get the ball in playmakers hands so I see Foster touching the ball at least 30 times a game.

I say he gets 21 touches a game, and if Hardesty, Creer, or Poole have anything major to say about it, he gets 16 touches a game, and the other gets about 12 a game, with the other 2 coming in at about 6-8, or thereabouts.

You think Hardesty can stay healthy a full season?

Anybody CAN stay healthy for 13-14 games. If his most recent surgery did the trick, I think he can brave the injury bug.

I would like to see him get 20-30 touches a game. 20-25 carries and 5 receptions would be nice. He is a really physical back that can wear down a defense. We have never used him enough where he has a chance to dominant in the 4th because the defense is tired. I am not saying we should feature the run exclusively, but I am saying we feature him. I would like to see him used as a receiver more. He would be a great safety valve for Crompton when no one is open.

There was actually a question that asked if he would be used as a receiver more in Clawson's offense, but he declined to answer any questions about the new offense.

One: Should there ever be quick "hits" with UT players? Those dudes don't know the meaning of puff puff pass.
Two: Arian Foster is my favorite UT running back of all time. I love his ability to lose errrr........ I mean carry the ball when he plays Bama.

This was my question. Thank you for asking and thank you for relating this answer. This answer actually excites me more than if he answered it. It brings some mystery to the offense.:thumpsup:
