FB #7 TR

[Chin Diesel]

A new cult favorite?

Trey Rutherford FB #7.

Diaco said this week that Rutherford needed snaps. Conventional wisdom was he was taking snaps from Samra.

Nope.

Threw a curve ball.

Rutherford played well from the backfield. He definitely put a helmet on a defender on every snap he was in the backfield.

Could be interesting. Also a possible position for developing OLinemen going forward. Hashemi plays on the punt block trio protecting Wain. You could put Hashemi in the H-back or FB position too.

Nice job by the staff identifying a means to putting the 11 best players on the field.

That drove me crazy, trying to figure out who that was. Thank you.

I love unconventional player packages. I like that the staff is trying something different, and I like the fact that it seemed to be effective.

Pffft - how in the world did the kid end up with no. 7, and not no. 3?

Wasted opportunity, IMO...

Me too! I was thinking that was #7 Garrett Anderson?? I know everyone gains weight after getting married but...Then I said that certainly dosn't look like John Green. Then I thought Micky Mantle? How many #7's do we have!

My friend insisted it was G. Anderson.

The first time he came in, I assumed it was Andersen and looked for Shirreffs (to see if we had two QB's and planned on running a trick play. It didn't take long to realize it wasn't a second QB but didn't know it was Rutherford until reading this board.

We burned his RS last year. I thought he looked good last year and am surprised he hasn't supplanted someone inside to date.

I saw Anderson in on one play in the 3D quarter wearing #24 lined up in the backfield.
