While Arian Foster and Montario Hardesty are sharing the first team reps at running back and RTT No. 5 Lennon Creer and RTT No. 19 Daryl Vereen are sharing the second team reps, LaMarcus Coker has his dorm room all to himself. Speaking of Coker, alert reader Wes recently emailed to remind me that the last time Fulmer used the word "suspension" with the phrase "medical condition" was when Victor McClure went berserk in the student rec area, pushing a professor, pulling some girl down the stairs, shedding his shorts, and running full steam ahead into a closed door.
Walter Fisher is ready to show off both of his new shoulders this season. While recovering, he studied film of NFL linemen Jason Taylor, Dwight Freeney, and Warren Sapp. He's listening now, too, so maybe the surgeon had a special or something: buy two new shoulders, get two new ears for free.
The Vols are hopeful that RTT No. 2 Ben Martin can help restore disorder in the opponents' backfields this season. He batted down two passes at the line of scrimmage on Saturday.
Britton Colquitt might be a Succop, as in "like Ryan Succop" who punts, kicks off, and kicks extra points for South Carolina. Fulmer's not concerned about having Colquitt do it all. Britton's not concerned. Britton's dad? Concerned.
